Great experience, no complaints outside of the food being a little pricey for portion size.

The service is not great - they were definitely understaffed and our server was doing almost all the tables and hosting Good for our group dinner but with multiple holiday parties, the DJ had the music SO loud we couldn’t even hear each other talking

I'm so happy that I found this place again after searching all day for a restaurant that still has an open patio. There were fire pits and heaters and it was exactly what I was looking for. I was able to sit at the actual firepit, plus had a heater next to me. 10/10 🥰

Great food and service. The staff moved heaters so our large group could sit outside away from the very loud bar. Most seats are outside so be prepared.
