    Didn't love it. Didn't hate it. Didn't like it. Didn't dislike it. This is the ultimate…read moreright-down-the-middle, easy-to-assign, 3-star rating. Takeout pizza joint on one side, bar room on the other (with a bunch of high tops and many big screen TVs), and plenty of outside seating on a deck. -- Buffalo Tenders: Generous serving. Full Buffalo coverage, but a very light application and light on the Buffalo flavor. Surfaces firm; interiors slightly moist. -- Single Patty Smashburger: A thin burger, but didn't have the flavorful pushed-down crusting that characterizes the best smash burgers. Merely a thin, non-moist burger. Way too much bun volume, even if it were two patties (there are a few different two-patty options), but a tasty bun and agreeable Thousand-Island-ish sauce. -- Fries (with the burger): Nearly a full tray of the thick, industrial food service product. Bulk. Service adequate and adequately friendly. Right down the middle.

    My family of 5 stopped in for dinner on a Sunday evening. The inside was full but we were able to…read moresit outside on the patio. The service was really good, our waitress was very friendly and helpful with our menu questions. Our food came out fast, and was nice and hot! One of my only complaints from this trip would be the bathrooms...they were not very clean. I'm giving this 4 stars because it really is just basic bar food and a bar atmosphere.

    What an incredible dining experience! We're traveling through the area on a road trip and stopped…read morehere for dinner, and we genuinely could not have asked for a better experience from start to finish. The food was phenomenal. We had the fish and chips, mushroom and ricotta pizza, Bavarian pretzels, and steak frites, and everything was delicious. The atmosphere was wonderful, too, but honestly, what made this experience so special was the hospitality. Our server, Sophia, was absolutely wonderful. She was so kind, attentive, personable, and had great recommendations. We had such a fun conversation with her, and she made us feel genuinely welcomed rather than like just another table. The manager, Rachel, was equally amazing. She came by to check on us and ended up spending time talking with us, and we absolutely loved getting to know her. Both Rachel and Sophia were so warm and engaging, and they made our night feel incredibly personal and memorable. We mentioned that we were visiting from out of state on a road trip, and they were kind enough to surprise us with complimentary apple cider donuts. It was such a thoughtful gesture and honestly captured the spirit of the entire experience. You can find good food at a lot of places, but exceptional hospitality is what makes you remember a restaurant. Rachel and Sophia gave us exactly that. They were the kind of people who make you leave a restaurant thinking, "We're so glad we stopped here." We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience. Rachel and Sophia deserve the absolute best Yelp review they're ever going to get. If you're passing through the area, PLEASE stop here. The food, atmosphere, and especially the people made this one of our favorite stops of the entire trip!

    Love this place! We've eaten in before, and it's a great space, but this Tuesday was take-out. We…read morewere inspired by their 20% discount on Tuesdays (via a code on the website that you enter when ordering). We had the quinoa bowl which was both healthy and delicious as well as an old favorite, the Chicken Bayou pasta. We added chicken tenders to the quinoa bowl which were a great match. Amazing flavors. Ordering online is easy - just remember to enter that discount code if ordering on Tuesdays (I nearly forgot!). If eating in, there is a ton of parking, plus it's near a nice path you can walk after lunch (cross the footbridge). All around a good experience every time.
