    Was a good place to watch football and enjoy happy hour. Service was friendly but slow. Bacon wrapped dates and shrimp were delicious.

    We were there for lunch on Veterans Day, and the waitress seems to be in a hurry. We got our food. OK, paid for our service. OK. Food was good.

    4 of us went for their Veterans Day promotion (free meal for vets off a limited menu). Everything was very tasty with generous portions. They otherwise have a very extensive menu with something for everyone.

    Food was okay. The salads were pretty small for the price. The chicken was very tough and dry, we picked it off.

    First time and won't be the last. The food was amazing, the staff was friendly and accommodating, and the food was amaxing! (Worth saying it twice.) Can't wait to go back to try other things. It was quite loud, hard to have a conversion. But that's like all the restaurants surrounding it.
