My husband and I LOVE this place! The drinks are great, the food is delicious & the people are the best! The bartender and the owner are fantastic people who are so much fun to be around. I can not recommend it enough!

The food was fine. Drinks were good. But the bartender and waitstaff loudly joined several rude patrons in making fun of our friends at another table after they paid out and left the restaurant. I won’t be back.

Food was great however the service was horrible and the manager/bar tender made fun of some of the patrons! Won’t be back!

The food, service, and ambience is amazing!! Will definitely come back!!!!

We really enjoyed the atmosphere of this restaurant. The drinks were delicious & so were the appetizers! My only complaint was the actual wait time for the food but a young lady (who I assume to be the manager) informed us that the current employees were in training. Regardless, everyone working gave a valid effort and we truly appreciate that. We will definitely be back!

The food was over salted, I got the seasoned chicken breast. My friend enjoyed her tomato soup and grilled cheese. The fries we good, slightly over salted. The green beans were not good at all. They were fatty and just covered in to much grease. The frozen strawberry marg was watered down. The food was mid overall not to bad but could be better. The service was ok. They had a busy day before and didn’t have all of the menu items, and everything is non refundable

A meal between me and my boyfriend ( 1 appetizer + 2 pastas) cost $54. The chicken was dry, not worth the money. The inside of this restaurant looks like a prison mess hall despite the nice image they portray online. Tablecloths look like black garbage bags. Servers and bartenders are incompetent. Ordered a dirty martini that was shaken instead of stirred (normally I would not complain about things like this), but it tasted and looked like dirty bathwater. Server was more interested with flirting with random men instead of checking on tables. We watched a new couple walk in and sit unattended to for 20+ minutes when it wasn't even busy. This review is coming from a past server and bartender, and I promise my expectations are not even high. Don't waste your money here.

Great flavors in the pasta and stir fry dishes. Drinks wonderful! Nice and quiet, so able to visit easily. If looking for a place that has a bit of the eclectic And mainstay dishes on the menu, this is your place!

Awesome food and drinks!!

Great new little bar and restaurant in town. Menu is still under development so some options were not yet available. But what was available was pretty good. Went on a Friday and they had live music which was also pretty good. Would definitely recommend checking it out!
