    I was celebrating a birthday and wanted to go somewhere nice but not too pricey. I was so pleased with my choice. We made reservations for 8 p.m. and got seated quickly. Megan was friendly and attentive, and the food was excellent! An indulgent birthday dessert was offered and enjoyed without the loud Happy Birthday song. It was all quite lovely.

    Booked a reservation one week prior and sat us at the “odd table.” It was basically in the middle of the room. The table was wobbly and felt like we were right in the pathway. Food was not good and dessert had to be sent back twice because it wasn’t cooked properly. Very disappointing!!! :(

    It was a large group from work. We got a reservation for 8 on short notice. The place looked amazing online for ambience and did not disappoint. To be fair it was after dark when we got the and the initial curb impression was a 60s strip mall. But inside it really delivered. The staff was friendly and helpful. The food hot and the drinks cold. The pretzel crusted Cheese curds and the stake frites were the don’t miss appetizers. Everyone enjoyed the food from the Bacon Wrapped Meatloaf, to the chef’s special steak to the Shrimp Diablo. It was an amazing, fun, experience. Would definitely go back again and again.

    Brunch was great - only reason 4 stars instead of 5 was the heat in the hollandaise sauce which was also included in the hash browns which I did not like but others might.

    Had the chicken and the goat and it was delicious. Asked for no bun and ate as more of a grilled chicken salad. Great place to meet a coworker for lunch.

    I came here for my birthday dinner with my family and ordered steak medallions which came with potatoes and asparagus everything was amazing. I love the meatballs and the pretzel bread with honey fig butter appetizers. And they gave me ice cream with chocolate and caramel sauce and cinnamon sugar donuts for my birthday. I thought it was more like a beignet but it was amazing. 10/10 recommend
