Ordered the beef tip pasta, I would highly suggest it. The boys all had burgers they loved and the salad was large enough for 3 people. The waitress was so kind and attentive. Couldn't have asked for better service on what was an obviously busy night. Definitely a local gem.

WTF? I understand we are now in summer and you risk the weather. Guess they don't want our business. If this is how you treat customers, I hope your business tanks.

This place is an adults only establishment - meaning no children allowed. Think of it as a bar that serves food, not a restaurant that serves liquor. Leave the kids at home. They have a few televisions and a small patio out front when the weather is nice. You can sit at the bar or one of the high tables. You get table service. All in all, a nice place to grad a bite!

We were initially curious how loud the street would be but were pleasantly surprised it wasn't loud. There was music playing at a good volume too. I could not decide what I wanted to order so I asked the waitress to choose for me. She thought that was a fun option and said she'd definitely go with the Sunset Smash and Fries. The only change I made was no pickles. My friend wanted as many pickles as they'd give her so we got mine on the side for her to have. Wow, was that Sunset Smash burger and fries good! The burger was juicy, tender, flavorful, honestly just delicious! The fries were thick with just the right amount of crisp and salt. Our waitress continued to appropriately check in on us as we ate and chatted. The only thing I'd love to be different is for our kids to be able to come. It's minors only and I know we'd all love the food there. Definitely coming back!

This could very well be our organizer's fault, not theirs. Wonderful salad, though. They had the chopped tomatoes, cucumbers, etc. dished separately. The drinks were great.

Friend's chicken salad had kind of an odd texture because it appeared to be finely ground rather than shredded. It said it was basil chicken salad, but the basil was only there as a little hint. The bread was tasty as was the side salad with fresh ranch dressing. I had the lunch special - - two items for $12 or three items for $15. I had their tasty fries with a half turkey and Swiss. The turkey was meh. Kind of like reheated. I had requested a different bread than offered, and the waitress was unable to put it in the iPad. However, she did remember and it came out with my preferred bread choice. That's great service! We sat outside & it was a great day! We'll be back with our hubbies!

This place had a big, rectangular bar and was pretty busy. No one really seemed that suspicious of us and the bartender didn't question us so maybe it was ok for us to be in here. The place wasn't bad, but nothing too fancy. Typical of a lounge geared toward slightly older crowd. A drunk guy who had (unknown to us) followed us from another nearby bar fell down the stairs outside as we were leaving. My friend helped him up and he thanked us. He then went into a spiel about how his wife and son had beaten him earlier that night so the police took him to the bars to get him away from them. He pulled up his pants legs to reveal several scrapes and bruises to support his claim. He said that they do it to him all the time. Ohhh-kayyyyy. :)
