On 1/7/2026 Kris` M. had this to say:
Excellent food and service. Great specials. We love the outdoor area when weather cooperates. Highly recommend!

On 12/22/2025 David R. had this to say:
The hangover burger hit the spot. 1/2 lb burger with bacon and egg. Fries are cooked in tallow making it semi healthy. I would order this again. The Long Island ice tea was dangerous, tasted perfect. We were here with a group of nine and service was quick and thorough. Has the feel of a joint, but with lots of tv's with the games on display.

On 11/13/2025 Timothy Holcombe had this to say:
Good food and quick service. I had the southwest salad and it was great! I liked the down to earth feel of the inside too.
