The atmosphere was good. We went to watch a band and it was also on a night that the civic center…read morehad an event so it was very busy and packed. We waited for a table for a bit and it was alright to wait because the band had started. We had an appetizer of fried pickles. They were delicious. I had the smash burger which was phenomenal. My husband had the pulled chicken and said it was alright, not great. The mixed drinks seemed watered down and the beer is in cans and bottles only. Or server was attentive. It was a $100 night with drinks, food and tip. Reasonable priced food and (several) drinks

I enjoyed the building itself with exposed brick, lumber etc. The staff was friendly, the place was VERY clean for a live music venue, and the food was fresh. We ordered the Nashville hot chicken, catfish, fried pickles fries and slaw. The meal was solid, no surprises, which is what we wanted.

The spacious outdoor patio is perfect for enjoying a day with friends watching planes come and go while enjoying some delicious food and drinks! I had their elote dip and pork chop and it was some of the tastiest food I have ever had. My only complaint was the grits had zero flavor to them. Everything else was absolutely amazing! I highly suggest checking this unique dining experience out. Especially if you know any plane lovers!

I went here for my birthday with reservations at 6pm. Thursdays are buy one get one half off for…read moreappetizers. Another person and I got appetizers as our meal and we got one as a table. The waitress encouraged us to order another to get "the deal" so we did get one to go. By the time we got our food we had been there an hour and a half already which was fine. But by the time we finally tracked someone down for a check We were there 2.5 hours at this point. Our waitress was busy, which again was fine but we needed to leave as it was nearing 9pm so that's why we grabbed someone and asked to split the check three ways. Then our waitress came back and said because we split it three ways we didn't get the appetizer deal. We asked if she could redo the checks then and she said "no I can't redo them" which I don't feel is true. So now we paid full price for an appetizer we were encouraged to get for "a deal" and no discount, no appetizer comped, but we left after three hours there with three beer tokens as an apology I guess. We live over an hour a way so these are useless. I've been once before and now I'm upset I recommended and took my whole family here for my birthday. Definitely not worth the drive.

We are avid customers who visit at least once per week. Unfortunately, the service and the food has…read morebeen hit or miss lately. Some of our fav servers are Hailee, Crystal, and Josh. They are always amazing. The food has been good on some visits and absolutely terrible at other times. I know there is a new chef and a lot of new staff, so we are trying to be patient while everyone gets trained. I'm adding pics of the filet and ribeye we had right before Chef Chris' departure. Also, I would love to see some attention to the patio. It has amazing potential, and we absolutely love having dinner out there, but for a golf course and restaurant of this caliber, it could use some love. Updated outdoor furniture would be a great start!
