Being a person that absolutely loves to try different food I find that the wings are my go-to. This place was definitely not a letdown! The wings here are great in size and value. The variety of different types of seasoning is an added bonus. The one thing that really surprised me was their homemade blue cheese. The staff was extremely friendly and attentive definitely a great place in a go-to!

I got a handmade 18” pizza which ended up being 20”+. Yay! The pizza is made fresh and oven fired. I very much appreciated that the menu clearly stated the pizza may have charred edges due to wood fired oven. It was awesome.

Day 4 of our 7 day trip we discovered this place. Excellent food (I got the twisted Mac and my fiance got the beef taco special). SO GOOD! Maddie the bartender, and the guy that was working there (sorry didn’t catch his name) were SO nice and inviting! Will definitely go back and try something else before we leave. The atmosphere was chill and laid back. All the stars!!

I actually discovered this place by accident but realized it was no mistake at all. When I walked in, I saw a nice and chilled spot to watch the games or catch up with friends. I enjoyed the spinach and artichoke dip with a special flair with the dipping pita chips. The server suggested the PB sweet chili wings and the garlic parmesan wings. I’d give the meal a 9.2/10.
