Very festive! Service was great, and we were happy that hosts were able to accommodate us earlier than our scheduled reservation. Our table had the fish and chips, classic Mac and cheese, Shawarma bowl, fried pickles, and cheese curds. Everything was delicious!

Food was just okay. Although our waitress was very nice, we were often waiting a very long time for things and she couldn't seem to handle our requests. She'd often ask. " Is there anything else I can get you," she'd kind of walk away while we were telling her the things we wanted or needed. Also, was crazy hot in there.
