We always enjoy OJs. We went for a birthday lunch today. In upholding the Xmas spirit we tried their cranberry Margs!!! Oh my goodness , you got to go try one. Corrine is an amazing server, and bartender. She adds a dash of delightment for sure. I forgot to take pics of the food but you probably have pictures of all of the appies on line already. Three of us shred calamari, shrimps, gyoza and yorkies. A lovely time was had by all.

First time at this restaurant. My burger was good but sides were not good. We sat on front side of restaurant and it was very cold and everytime someone opened front door what little heat was there was quickly lost. Was very loud and hard to have a conversation even though most tables were empty. Food (2 burgers) took about 30 minutes even though we beat the lunch rush. Doubt I will be back to this chain.
