    Thank you Sam for your kind smile and attentive service. My hubby had a burger. It was cooked to his preference. I had the pulled pork, less the coleslaw, with fries. I ditch the soft brioche bun and use the fries as a bed for my pork. So bad for you, but it tastes delicious. I enjoyed that with a glass of house Pinot. My only complaint is that they no longer has the doughnut dessert. They only serve fried dough stuffed w Oreos. Love this place!

    I was really impressed! First of all, the bartender, Anthony, was outstanding. The drinks were delicious and my friend and I were asking for “custom” items and he never made a face or complained or acted inconvenienced. The drinks he made were spectacular. Second, the food was really good. We had the tuna tartar tacos which were amazing. They were a o light and the fish was super fresh. Then we had a pepperoni pizza and the eggplant chips with whipped ricotta. The ricotta was next level. So creamy and seasoned perfectly. The eggplant chips were something different and so good! The pepperoni pizza was cooked just right so the crust was chewy on the inside and crispy on the outside and it wasn’t too topping heavy. All in all, we had a great night out and enjoyed delicious food. We will be going back!
