Customer Reviews

"Wanted to find some new places for food while kid free and stumbled across this place after seeing a steak photo posted today so I came out. Amanda and Chef Christian were friendly and super nice. The food was great. The wings were perfect and the fried shrooms were lightly battered and seasoned well. The finale, steak dinner for $13 was out of this world and ridiculously underpriced! Hand cut fries well done, green beans grilled perfectly and the steak was well seasoned and cooked as ordered. This is my new favorite place."

"We came in on Thursday night and it wasn't too busy. The bartender was super friendly absolutely amazing!! Made us want to come back! Drinks were well priced. The food was super yummy. I was staying nearby and it was super walkable. The bartender did inform us at a time of when the kitchen is closing which was nice to know. Drinks were made well would definitely recommend to anyone in the area or traveling from out of town."

"Seriously the best ribs and at $1.25 a bone on Wednesdays is crazy. I actually hope nobody reads this because I'm gonna be pissed if they are sold out now when I get there. I've been going to this place for 20+ years and the food here is amazing and the prices are even better. I'm not getting paid from Amanda to say this either. Seriously the food and the specials are the best in the 216, 330, and 440!"
