    Food was amazing!!! So good!! Bartender was awesome! Waitstaff was inattentive at best. Couldn’t get her attention for drink orders, or for much of anything for that matter. We were done with our first round of drinks at the table and she still hadn’t offered any appetizers or offered to take any food orders. Maybe just that particular server. Everything else is fantastic!!

    We had the beef and prime rib sliders on the Happy Hour menu and they were cooked perfectly to medium rare. We also had a wedge salad and warm rolls which were soft and fresh. We enjoyed Smokey Old Fashion cocktails. Enjoyable meal in the bar area which is always very cozy.

    My husband and I have dined here several times. The food and cocktails are always amazing. Their service is fantastic! On our most recent visit, our table wasn’t ready until a few minutes after our reservation time, so they generously covered our shareables for us.
