    The restaurant was very accommodating for the large group that we had. Made sure that food and drinks were good and the manager came by a couple times to make sure everything was good. Definitely would come back!

    The bison egg rolls were delicious, as well as the salad I had. My only complaint was that it was a little too warm inside.

    We were greeted quickly and seated without delay. Service was very good and the food was excellent. This is my favorite restaurant within close proximity to GABP. I've never had bad service or food here. Very helpful to make reservations on busy days.

    Thank you, Dean! We couldn't be happier with our location right next to the ballpark. We can't wait to have you back again soon!
