“ I don't know how else to say it, but this place is solid. The beers are cold and tasty, the food is amazing, and the staff... They are the main reason I keep coming back. I'm not sure who does the hiring there, but keep it up. ”
“ Poor choice of beer, but o got a nice one !! Bale Breaker I loved ! Also at the menu could have some French fries with the burgers ! We came. At 7 pm the guy was very nice and polited, but when change shift things changed! Hot Wings was very hot and not flavorful I’m gonna give 5 stars because everybody needs a chance to improve. Good point: the plates from kitchen come very fast . ”
