The wings were a lil salty for my taste and had to eat them with a side of their garlic dip which I love! Ordered a drink with Tamarindo Smirnoff. It was delicious! Since it was flavored vodka you really couldn't taste the alcohol on that one. They have karaoke Fridays so it was cool to hear ppl sing. The speakers were a bit loud ( reminded me of a club). Overall, good place to hang out.

It's heavily battered and not so much fish. My most recent order was 90% batter and 10% fish. I don't know where they find such tiny pieces of fish.

The food was pretty good, the waitress was kind, but also very busy. When we told the waitress about my birthday I received a free dessert, so that was nice. The big bummer was when we paid the credit card was ran and I handed the waitress a cash tip. After she got her tip we noticed that gratuity was added already and the waitress hadn't mentioned the gratuity. I was surprised that she didn't say anything and that there was no clear notice that a party of 6 would automatically have gratuity added to the bill. We did talk with the waitress and she returned the cash tip, but just want others to be aware of their gratuity policy.

Clean bathrooms, entertaining decor and the service was terrific. Great variety of beers. And the food while just "dive bar food" according to the owner was both creative and excellent. We tried a variety of stuff and everything we tried was awesome. The owner Cale stopped by and had a decent conversation with us. Great guy shortly after his wife stopped by and couldn't be more friendly. I can't say enough about this place. If you're in the area, it's a must see! I was in the area for a couple of days and tried to go back the next day, but it was Wall the wall packed so we moved onto another place that didn't nearly live up to this one. I hope you get to stop in. I'm sure you'll enjoy!

As many times as I've been here, I've never written a review, so here it goes…read more LOVE the atmosphere, for some reason it feels like an art deco speakeasy. I've never had a bad experience with the staff, though my friends and I usually sit at the bar. I used to get the Cuban on the pretzel roll back in the day but sadly the pretzel roll went away then so did the Cuban. One constant I've almost always have had is their Parmesan fries, they've always been a highlight either as a side to a burger or as an appetizer. Their version is easily some of the best fries I've ever had. The dipping sauce is on point, I recommend getting two of them. Something that has fallen off in recent years and I keep forgetting that fact, is their cheese wontons. I first fell in love with cheese wontons at Irish Democrat many moons ago and I've been chasing them ever since. They were good here once but not anymore - too much CRUNCHY wonton wrap and not enough cheese. People don't eat wontons for the wrapper, they go for the filling, if they didn't, that would be like going to Paris to see the frame and not the Mona Lisa. For these, the dipping sauce is always the best part of the dish. Overall it was a positive experience as usual. I will return.

The interior is standard upscale brewery decor, and everything was clean and nice. I was promptly seated and attended to several times before the rest of my party. Our server was fantastic, and everything came out quickly and hot. The Bloody Mary was decent! I would have liked a few more olives or pickles, or maybe some meat/cheese, but the menu said they make the mix in house and it was pretty good. My friend had a mule, and that seemed fine, too. Food: the menu is different than I remember. Between us all, we had the spinach artichoke dip, the fish and chips, the BLT, and a kid's pasta alfredo meal. The spin dip came out bubbling hot with melty cheese on top, served with warm chips and pita bread. It was creamy and garlicky, and really good. The fish and chips was great! Two huge pieces of beer battered fish, crinkle cut fries, and coleslaw. My friend had the BLT; it looked loaded with crispy bacon. The kid's alfredo was also great, and gobbled down with no complaints!
