    We never ate there. We were seated, ignored, we waited 10+ minutes and realized that they weren’t interested in serving us so we left.

    I have never been there. Food was good, nice atmosphere and wasn’t too loud or rowdy. Everyone was happy with their choices.

    We truly enjoyed the breakfast with Santa that was hosted here, our families had such a great time and it's definitely a tradition we will want to do again next year. It was a perfect amount of food, a great atmosphere and Santa was interactive and such a great treat for our kids.

    I went for a holiday brunch Santa theme I honestly expected more. It was buffet style mostly tailored for the kids which was nice for them the food wasn’t ideal but again for the kids it could be a fun outing. I won’t be back not really my atmosphere but it was nice to experience a new place. I’m assuming the night life there is different for adults maybe will try again I’ll give overall 3 stars for now.

    Better than average pub fare. Nicely done remodel. No band playing the night we went, but there appears to be a stage. Prices were reasonable, cocktails were good, as was the service. It was a Sunday night, so it was a pretty slow night for the restaurant. Will go again. I hope they're successful, it's a nice place with a big outdoor space for lounging and hanging out.

    I’ve been there several times. Great space. Nice fun, casual menu. They had an excellent acoustic guitar player. Because of the design of the building, it was very loud, but enjoyable. Service was very good and the food was also terrific.
