Finally getting to play here in Baked Alaska our Grateful Dead Tribute band was great. Playing with Sandy was and honor and a added bonus. Staff was remarkable. I hope to be back one day as a headliner. Thank you ✌🏾 ❤️ 🎶 🙏🏾

Sad they took away the dog park and are building another high rise in it's place. 😢 Still a good place to hang out and listen to good music.
