   First time dining here and the food left little to be desired. Ordered a salad and noticed immediately that the tomatoes didn’t taste right. One of them had a large black and white mold spot on it, so at that point I opted not to finish my meal. Table was wobbly so any little movement meant the water glasses spilled over and onto the table. Unfortunately, we will not be returning.

   I went for a Birthday celebration and had no idea that there was a band playing that night. Needless to say we couldn’t hear each other talking. Also, no fault of her own there was only one waitress for the whole room and SHE WAS ALSO THE BARTENDER!! One thing I can say is she always had a smile on her face.

   We were a party of 6 and all enjoyed our meals. Service was excellent! One in the party has celiac disease and the waitress provided a menu with safe options notated. A few of us were first-timers and were completely satisfied with our meals. We will be back!

   Great night with the staff they need to open the menu up with more options also keep the bar open after the show and also should have more venues that will keep the crowd coming back

   Again….. a single person was the bartender AND the only waitress for the entire restaurant. She tried very hard while being out in an unfair position. The food was ok, the drinks were weak. The music was the best part about our experience.

    We found the menu limited and a little pricey we wanted fish taco and cauliflower tacos and they had no tacos (send someone to stop and shop) the fish sandwich was served on a hamburger bun. We were members there before the fire and the food was amazing before the rebuild we will not be back 😞
