Been coming here off and on for over 6 years and have had nothing but positive experiences. Bartenders are great (shout out to Jessie!), all food made to order and everyone is always super fun!

It was great for drinks and vibes. We only ordered fries and they were awful. Overcooked, no seasonings, and it tasted like they were out all Day!
