“Went there for lunch today and had the buffalo chicken salad. If your a fan of buffalo flavor, you won't be disappointed. Romaine, cherry tomatoes, blue cheese crumbles and onion. Paired with ranch dressing or whatever dressing you like. Really good.”

“I work across the street and this is THE SPOT for me and my co-workers after work. It’s a very comfortable atmosphere - nothing fancy - but just perfectly right for a relaxing time. The food is really good….specifically the fried mozzarella. I always get the chicken pasta as my entree and it’s consistently great. The staff and bartenders are extremely friendly. Highly recommend this place for a night out with friends and family. Very kid friendly environment.”
