   Great enviornment and service. The BBQ Salad with Chicken was very good and would order again. We had a few of their specialty cocktails and found them well made , taste ok , yet not sure I would order them again. Probably beer is a safer bet. Now to the pizza. We had their traditional style pizza which I believe is closest to tavern style for them. BUT it's not thin tavern style or thin crust it's more like a medium crust thickness and they need it. The pizza comes loaded with cheeze , actually to much. They need to cut their squares so it actually seperates the pieces. Then you take a square the cheeze still connects to the other pieces and we found it was coming right off the crust base and was making a mess. WE had to work hard to make sure we seperated the cheeze before the piece left the cooking sheet. No knive provided , so we had to ask for one. This problem could be easily solved for the customer by making sure the pieces really get cut into squares before leaving kitchen or providing a roller pizza cutter at the table for the customer to use. I was other tables having the same problem. JUST SAYING. Finally the Pizza taste: It was good but not great. In my opinion go for the experiance but most likely it will not become your pizza goto place. Just my opinion. Yet I will try one more time.

   As always the food and service was delicious but the only thing I had an issue with was that we ordered a bowl of chili and it was cold then they sent it back and still was cold so then we changed it to soup and then it was hot so I’m not sure why they couldn’t get it right but like always the pizza and service was great.

   First time here and we will be back. Pizza was awesome and the wings and eggroll appetizers were a great place to start. Our server was very attentive and efficient

   The food and drinks were delicious and the portion sizes were ample. We made a reservation and were happy we did so because it was crowded. We’ll definitely be back.

   Chicken breast on focaccia looked great . However the chicken itself was terrible . Rubber like and sour. Family was content with the other items so we didn’t say anything which I regret. It was just that bad

   It’s a nice environment. I believe some servers are still learning. The person who brought out our food, reached over my friend’s plate to set a plate on the table and his sleeve brushed her food. It also states chicken wings are market price…that took me by surprise. The margaritas are served in 8oz rock glasses versus a margarita glass. Overall it was a nice experience.
