- CRCeleste RomoNov 15, 20251.0Had a 6:40 reservation and was texted 35 minutes later saying my table was finally ready. Then I waiting another 15 minutes to be seated. Have to say that is the longest I have waiting for having a reservation. Hostess was not the friendliest. Waitress was very sweet and improved our experience.

- ASAna SaltOct 16, 20254.0We ordered pumpkin ale, beef stroganoff & some boneless chicken. They make beef stroganoff with BACOn and it wasn’t showing on the menu, even our server didn’t know until I asked him and he had to go to the kitchen to check. Yes it Has bacon, why to ruin a dish!? Disagree here. Chicken was great. Our server Max was amazing, so attentive and extremely nice and professional gentleman, he was 10 out of 10. Our reservation took little less then 30min.
- BSBryan SimmonsOct 14, 20254.0We had lunch here during our visit. Our reservation was for 11:30 but we didn't get seated until after 12. The service was good and the food came out quickly. We enjoyed the fried pickles, but the lunch meals were just ok. My $23 Burger wasn't anything special and I had to add ketchup to enjoy it. My wife's chicken fried chicken had gravy that tasted like ham. She thought it was ok but I didn't like it at all. My orange cream soda was beautiful but looked better than it tasted. Just an ok meal.
