Decent place. With a lot of seating. Nice back patio. Had the Smoked Pulled Pork Sandwich. It was pretty darn tasty. Good flavor, meat was nice and tender. Fries were just ok. Ordered the Mac n cheese too, but was kind of bland to me. Service was nice

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Loud bar scene 80% of the time. Bummed by service when we came in before six and they took a good while to seat us then, then the waitress took 10 plus minutes to stop by…. My wife asked for something off the happy hour menu that ended at six and was told no, and was suggested to her that she should have gotten here earlier… so not a great look. There are many ways to handle asks and even say no. That is not one of them. I felt the response was a bit lack luster from management as well ( offered to comp a round but I’m we all had water). I get busy, I get tired, mistakes happen but for Thursday night this was unfortunate. We have had some decent food and service in the past so I’m hopping this was just an outlier. Food was decent but mine (burger) was barely warm, Shane for the good looking fries.

Great food, service, and atmosphere. Arrived and had a short wait til seated. The waitress came over right away to take our order. We got some of the seasonal beer which was fantastic as usual. One of our favorite reasons for coming back. On top of that I got the Mediterranean Bowl and my husband got the prime rib. Both were delicious. This spot never disappoints and is a staple for us. We will definitely be back!
