As always the food was delicious and the service was great. Bartenders went out of their way to make sure a special cocktail I ordered was exactly what I wanted! We love it there! Highly recommend!

Great as usual. Only complaint is they started using garlic seasoning for their fries some months ago and still are. The new seasoning is not for me. The way they seasoned the fries before I always told people they had the best fries I have ever had.

The food and service were great. It was very loud which made hearing difficult but not impossible. I would go there again.

We had Kylie (I think 😳). She did a great job keeping our glasses full and wasn’t over bearing. Had a great night with my mom, I got the pork tenderloin sandwich and she got the salmon, both excellent! glad to see a full restaurant on a Wednesday night!
