We have eaten at this restaurant several times. The food is not bad and about your average 2023 inflation prices. The big down side is the service. One time we have even left after not getting any service for 45min. That was with stopping other servers and being told they would get our server for us. Even on none busy days we seem to be forgotten, not sure if it’s a lack of communication on the hostess part or inattentive servers. Overall if you can get a server to serve you the food is good, minus the kids mashed potatoes.

The Shrimp salad was absolutely delicious. I love it, the drinks can be a little stronger I feel they water them down a bit. For the prices they can absolutely do better. Staff can be more friendlier, so the atmosphere can feel more welcoming. If they work on those small issues this can be a much better place to go unwind and enjoy your surroundings.

Prices and the quality and amount of food were unexpectedly wonderful and awesome. Took food home and was great the next day. Waitress was accommodating. Enjoyed the free wing happy hour. Delicious! I recommended to my family who came from out of town. They were also pleased with everything.

Leaving five stars simply because of our server Tia. Amazingly friendly and attentive. Best server we’ve encountered in a while.

Here are the 12 grilled wings for $18… Once upon a time, this place used to have great, hearty-sized, flavorful wings but they they now fall short. They are definitely not worth the price.

Showed up after flight at nearly 11pm. Open till 2am daily. Friendly even tho short staffed. Food was good and inexpensive. Atmosphere was bar/college sports bar. Cool place. Wings, etc. Had a real food selection also. It is an ale house! If you’re thirsty. Glad to have a place open, friendly and cheap at midnight on a weekday.

Our waitress Tiffany was really patient with us and she was friendly. We had a bunch of questions about the menu and she was honest about every answer. On top of the great service the food was 10/10, every meal hit just right
