The food and service was great! Amazing fried pickles!! It was kinda dark, as in we had to use our phone flashlights to read the menu dark. It was also loud. But overall my friends and I had a great time and we all enjoyed our meals, will definitely go back again.

We accidentally tipped our waiter 50% of the bill, but it’s okay because she deserves it :)
