    Definitely coming back! Enjoyed the deviled eggs- your signature salad and husband enjoyed your skirt steak although the corn was super spicy. Our sweet server could have warned us.

    One of my favorite spots to go for dinner with friends, will always recommend any of the burgers, and the fish and chips are excellent. The whiskey list is fantastic and has reasonable prices.

    Our first visit with friends was enjoyable but alittle embarrassing when told we needed to leave that our table was needed by others guests, as we left, we did not see people waiting, we also have reservations for 10 people on April 4th and might cancel out due to the way we were treated, we are in our 70’s and the party we are reserved for on the 4th is an older crowd also all relatives
