    One of our favorites. However I’m still looking for the menu that changes daily as advertised on their website. It has been the same menu every time we’ve been there. Great beer selection.

    The food rating is really N/A because 20 minutes after being seated, we never got any service. Two tables who arrived after us, however, were attended to immediately after sitting down. The manager told us "they don't have sections" so there is sometimes some miscommunication. One waiter literally was 2 feet from me bringing food and drinks to the table next to us. Never even acknowledged our table. Very disappointing
