    Food was good and you get plenty! Our waitress, Avery (i think!) was great. She was friendly, fun, buttoned up and got us out in time for Bucks game.

    We were so disappointed in our dinner - table of six and every meal had an issue….from ice cold soggy sweet potato fries (which you pay extra for as a side); missing ingredients on their specialty burgers; stale house chips; their special dip for the chips was unavailable; a cold and unappealing grilled cheese sandwich. Our waitress was trying hard to make things better and was apologetic explaining they had a new chef, but they need to make some changes/improvements asap.

    Always good but we had an issue with front door stuck open. We had to close multiple times. The magnet holding the door open needs to have something to stop it from engaging

    We didn’t get our food in time- only our appetizer. We had a 6pm reservation and had to leave at 7:15 to get to a show. We canceled the dinner.
