The server Lily was excellent. The place is nice. Restrooms clean. Buffalo Wings and Burger were excellent and reasons I would go back. Asian Wings and Fries okay at best.

This is the quintessential neighborhood bar/restaurant. Not a huge menu but everything on it is perfectly prepared. It is like your favorite sweater on a bitter cold night. Highly recommended.

I had french onion soup and it was so delicious. I also had the signature burger and it was very flavorful and juicy meet. My friends and I didn’t skip the desserts. We highly recommend the apple pie, key lime slice, and warm cookie with ice cream. They are superb!

Lovely food and very nice bar, great service. The space is a bit spare, however, and often feels crowded.

Fine weekend brunch food and service. Often crowded. Liked by diners in their 20s to 40s, some of whom speak loudly, VERY LOUDLY. Some older folks find the continuous shouting unpleasant. We need to come at quieter times.
