He made me a deep fried hotdog wrapped in bacon, topped with cream cheese and jalapeños. That was incredible. Had an order of fries and a coke too. I definitely will be back !!!

The chili had a little kick to it and the hot dog itself was hot, and ready in minutes. The fries weren't the best and the cheese sauce was basic but for the price it's a a good place to go. I don't think I would experiment with other things on the menu but I will keep coming back for a hotdog.

I highly recommend checking this place out. The only critique is that it's a small place. So if too many people show up and take advantage of the awesomeness, then we all will need to wait a bit to be served. I can't wait until this concept moves to a larger location. Then we can basques in its true glory.

The salsa/ sauce on the side was not that flavorful and it seemed like the cheese blend used in the quesadilla was different (leaned more Italian cheeses vs what you would expect for a quesadilla) but still decent. Also got the Buffalo cauliflower bites and wings. They were able to let us select two sauces which was nice. Would recommend staying away from the lemon pepper dry rub- was way too acidic and salty for my liking. Nice vibe and they have two single stall bathrooms that are pretty spacious. Overall solid spot for some apps and HH drinks- just beware of limited parking.

She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and had a fantastic sense of humor. Victoria truly made the experience even more enjoyable--she's the best! We started with the mozzarella sticks, which were perfect. The breading was wonderfully crunchy, not overcooked at all, and they came out hot and fresh. For our meals, we ordered the turkey sandwich with bacon, lettuce, and tomato, served on your choice of brioche or panini bread, along with their house-made coleslaw. It was delicious and really hit the spot. I went with the classic cheeseburger topped with provolone and caramelized onions--absolutely mouthwatering. If you're in the area on a Saturday afternoon, stop in, grab a drink and a bite to eat, and say hello to Victoria. You won't be disappointed!

He was polite, let us know about the drink specials, and was making sure we had everything we needed. The food was so tasty and both dishes as well as Shawn get a 5 star rating. The reason for the overall 4 star rating was because of two things: It was so loud inside that it was difficult to have a conversation and, the bathroom was not well kept for a Saturday night.

Decent menu with reasonable prices, but quite a few things we wanted were not available, so it definitely narrowed down our options. I kept it easy with an omelette and customized it to add some additional toppings. We also got pancakes to share for the table. It was just okay... I was expecting a lot more for a classic item like eggs and homefries and it seemed like the overall quality wasn't what it used to be

We arrived at 5pm and the bar was crowded and only one server/bartender so we took a high top. I decided to go up and order our drinks and a menu. I took our drinks back to the table and we reviewed the menu and I returned back to the bar and placed our order. I thought it was easier than waiting for the server. I repeated our order twice (a bar pie and chicken wings). 25 minutes later no food. Once again I go back to the bar to check on the order. I am told that they were busy with takeout orders. No one was eating at the bar and we saw 2 people picked up takeout. I repeat the order once again as I assume she never put it in. 20 minutes later still no food. Food was good but the server throughout the time we were there was caught up with her regulars. I had to go to the bar to request our check and a box. She never brought it and I went to the kitchen myself. Packed our leftovers and had to stop at the bar to pay our bill. Did she acknowledge us no. I honestly thought to just walk out. I realize this is a local establishment and you have your regulars but I hope the owner either increases servers or be there to assist. I for one will not return.
