A lovely place for a cocktail and quality food. Ordered the hot honey chicken grilled cheese and it was delicious. Drinks will run you $13 to $16. Outdoor patio is really nice in the summer time. Service was great. Would stop back again!

I had the salmon yesterday, and it was disappointing. The portion was very small, the fish was dry, and it didn’t taste good at all. The broccoli seemed and tasted like it came from a frozen bag, and the rice was just plain—nothing memorable about it. To make matters worse, the waitress asked me to pay while I was still eating. Overall, it was a terrible experience, and I won’t be returning.

We waited ten minutes for the waitress to come to our table, so I eventually went inside to place our order at the bar. After a few minutes of waiting there, the waitress finally emerged from the kitchen to take our order. She didn’t acknowledge that I had to walk in to order, though. After waiting another twenty minutes with no food in sight, I was ready to leave. Just as I was about to get up, our food finally arrived. She dropped off the food and tossed some napkins at us without a word. Given the lack of service, I immediately requested the check. I laid down cash to pay the bill and was about to take a picture of it with the cash, just in case we were accused of dine-and-dash, when she finally returned to collect the money. Two tables that had been seated before us received their food, and the waitress only checked on them to bring their bills and handle payment while ignoring us. One of those tables had been done for quite a while, clearly just waiting to pay. I usually tip over 20%, but for our total bill of $34.80, I left $35.00 in cash. Honestly, I felt like even the $0.20 tip was too generous!

The burgers at this place were nothing short of divine. I was a bit anxious about the prices at first, but every penny was worth it. The fries were exceptional as well. I also ordered a cocktail, and I was thoroughly impressed with the flavor. The staff were friendly, patient, and surprisingly attentive (thank you for stopping me before I accidentally left with my wallet and sunglasses). I will definitely be recommending this restaurant and hope to visit again soon!
