It's in a shopping Center Plaza kind of off of the main road. I have been before but just for a beer. We sat at the bar area and the bartender was really nice. Sorry I didn't get her name. You can tell there's a lot of regulars that come here but we were treated just the same. They have about 10 taps and had a few ipas on there for me. What I really like is the prices. An IPA for $5? Can't hardly find that anymore. So we had two rounds of beer each and got two appetizers. I spinach dip and some pepperoni egg rolls. Both were actually really good. Spinach dip could use some more seasoning but that just seems to be the case almost everywhere anymore. Food came out fast and was delivered hot. Beer was Ice cold. It's kind of a small spot so you're either going to sit at the bar or at one of the few tables that are around the bar area. Lots of TVs around the bar. $31 for both of us. I do recommend.

The weight staff was very helpful, very efficient. They did not waste motion. We were seated quickly and well. A few minutes later, we had drink orders and I asked about appetizers and she said as soon as they come out, we'll get them to you and so we got some. The fries came out burning hot, which is exactly how fries should be. Hot fries, and cold ranch make a wonderful appetizer. We also got the cheese bread which was worth eating too. Practically a pizza on its own. I ordered the pub burger. It might sound a little mundane, but it was sublime. The bacon was well done and crispy, but it's not prefab frozen stuff. It was real bacon. I enjoyed the cheese. It was a properly done burger. Not overcooked not undercooked just right in my opinion. Exactly what I asked for. My sweetie got the side salad to go with her sandwich instead of fries and she is delighted, which she normally isn't. She's usually pretty tough on salads. She says it was crispy and yummy. So perfect. I don't know if I've ever heard her use that to My little shared a pizza margarita thing. They were delighted. They threw it like a herd of velociraptors, which is pretty atypical for them. Usually, they smell it very strongly and lick it once and then move on. We have very few leftovers, which is not usual for us. Only took one to go box, and that's for the pizza for the kiddos. Normally, I'm an imperial stout guy and so I didn't know if they'd have anything for me. They recommended a sounders porter and I'm usually not a porter guy, but it was good. I liked it. That's a good recommendation. I like the friendly, family, friendly, casual atmosphere. They've got a very large menu and they've got some really nice items on it. Their food comes out hot fresh and properly cooked. What's not to love? If I'm ever up in this area again, which is likely, I expect to be stopping by here again.

What started out to be not such a good experience was definitely turned around by the manager. My three boys did not like trick or treating today with the rain and what have you. So coming in they was hungry and rather grumpy. Kyle came over to the rave and handed my boys some candy he brought in for his staff for the holiday.. I just felt like that was very nice of this young man. Thank you Kyle for a great bbq experience. This place has definitely came a long way since last time we was here.

We made a last-minute decision to eat here and didn't regret it. The restaurant had a cozy, slightly rustic vibe that felt comfortable right away.

They were friendly, and the menu is simple, and just varied enough to make sure there are options but that every option can be perfectly executed. speaking of perfect, we did not get a burger, but I heard the guy behind me say "my first bite was perfect" as he tore into a burger that looked massive and juicy and just as perfect as he described. I'm not going to lie, we opted out of burgers because we thought we were going to a recently opened Korean corn dog place. When we got there, they were sold out and needed to shut down for a few hours- so we came in as a consolation prize. We decided to come in here and try some Korean barbecue wings, potato bombs, fries, and spring rolls. We decided to eat our way through the appetizer menu. The chile relleno spring rolls are decent in terms of flavor, but they are very small to be charging over two dollars apiece for them. Sadly, I didn't expect expecting it to be piping hot, it was lukewarm inside. Could have a little more spice to it as well. same issue with potato bombs. The flavor is good, could use a little more seasoning- but it wasn't hot enough in the middle. I think maybe they need to adjust their fryer temperature because the outside was very well done and the inside was not quite warm enough. Also, they brought everything out one piece at a time. First came the spring rolls. Over five minutes later came the potato bombs.... the food trickling out when it all came from the same fryer was weird. But the same person who took our order did deliver the food to the table each time. It's not exactly a sit down and get some type of restaurant so that was a very nice touch. It's probably more of a three star experience- but I'm being generous because we didn't order any of the things that they're actually known for and those burgers coming out looked stellar.
