    Love this place, the drinks are good and so is the food! I sat inside but there is an option to sit outdoors. There is a live DJ that is playing bomb music. I got California rolls and a martini, the waitress checked in with us multiple times providing great customer service.

    The is great place for date night. They had a live Dj playing nothing but heat. The open front window concept is great. Almost gives a tiki bar vibe. The service is top tier and very attentive. We will definitely be back. The smash burgers are phenomenal as well.

    SERVICE: World Class Service. So my girlfriend and I came in 6 minutes before closing. If you've ever worked in the service industry, we all know how that can be annoying, especially when they close at 11:00pm. However, was met with some fantastic smiles from Cindy (Manager), Ashley (Hostess). They made us very comfortable and told us to take our time. Cindy even set up a table for us at the connected bar next door (On the Rocks). Kind of cool having sushi at a little bar. When it got chilly Cindy moved us close to a fireplace and blasted the heat. We were served by Hailey at the Bar. Fantastic service. Cindy made us feel at home by asking us what we wanted to request from the Juke Box. FOOD: I'm asian and sushi has always been part of my life , just check out my other reviews. The lobster sushi is to die for. I got the I've tried many authentic sushi bars and I was extremely impressed by freshness of the sushi. The spider roll was perfectly crunchy and the spicy tuna was the perfect type of spiciness. These place deserves more recognition! Keep up the good work Cindy, Ashley, and Hailey! To the owner of the bars give these ladies a raise.

    The menu is small, but it is tasty. Sometimes I don't need a lot of options, as long as those that I have are good. Took my dad in here for a late Father's Day meal. Happened to be trivia night and we won a game of trivia while we were hanging out. Dad and my step-mom had a bunch of drinks that were all well made, as were my own. All three of us enjoyed out meals. Dad had a burger, I had the chicken burger and my step-mom had some sub sandwich thing I don't recall exactly. All three of us enjoyed our selections. Will definitely come back.

    Decent food. There's a sushi place next door and they operate as one, but two separate restaurants if that makes any sense.

    Stopped in one night and was very pleasantly surprised with this place. It is definitely a pub,…read moreloved the vibe of the decor. We were welcomed immediately when we arrived and seated. It was Mexican night. I ordered the steak fajitas. Wow, they were so good and I felt a great price. I ordered the beans and rice on the side, but could have done without either of those. The beans were very dry and I just wasn't a fan of the rice, personal preference. My husband got a burger and said it had great flavor. Perfect medium cook and seasoned well. We will definitely return.

    Went here for a group meet up with friends who I haven't seen in a long time. We went for dinner on…read morea Wednesday in the cold so it wasn't super busy which was nice. The bar and eating areas were clean but had a "homey" bar feel that made you feel relaxed without it feeling like a dive. Table got the mox sticks (these things are huge, mox logs, not sticks!) and fried green beans which were delicious. Around the table was a breakfast burger, a Reuben, the classic burger, etc. Fries were much loved and the onion rings (which literally looked like they cut the onion in half and then fried one of those size rings) were a fan favorite. I got the veggie pizza with a couple swaps (no banana peppers, added roasted red peppers and spinach) and it was delicious. Crust was crispy but not thin and the sauce was really flavorful. Appropriate amount of cheese, not so much that all your toppings fall off, but enough that you get a pull when you grab a slice. Our server was very nice and attentive. We split checks around the table and no issues. Would definitely stop in again and would recommend for anyone searching for a regular bar/food joint.

They don't serve any food though, so might not be a good choice if you're hungry. - Dogfish Head Grateful Dead IPA: 10000/10 (an amazing, refreshing IPA that isn't too strong! Medium-bodied, pretty fruit-forward with notes of pineapple and mango. Honestly one of the best IPAs I've had in a whileee) - Kasteel Wit: 9/10 (light-body wheat beer that's also super refreshing and flavorful!) - Hacker Pschor Oktoberfest: 10/10 (great marzen) - Rhineheist Cheetah lager: 8/10 (decent lager) - Guinness: 6/10 (the Guinness was wayyyyy too watery!!!) - Ferndale Project Apple Pie: 9/10 (actually tastes like apple pie and vanilla! It's def on the sweeter side though, so you might not like it if you're not into sweet beer) Overall, I definitely want to come back and sit outside when the weather is nicer!

However, I made a grave mistake of ordering on the QR code/Toast rather than at the bar. I say grave because fellow bourbon whisky enthusiasts will cringe -- I was pretty stoked to see that they had Basil Hayden Toasted. So, I ordered it but also selected "add water" with the anticipation that it would be like a dropper of water. Nope, they made a cocktail out of my 2oz pour of Basil Hayden. Whiskey water. At that point, it could've been Makers Mark or Jack and I wouldn't have known the difference. User error though so I did make sure I still tipped accordingly and NOW I know. I'll be back though.

Our server tho was really nice and accommodating. Btw parking in across the street from the building** The place was very large and roomy (uncrowded). They have a bar top and outdoor type seating with heat lamps.

My fave of the dishes was the whipped ricotta with hot honey - just wish the bread that accompanied was just a bit more toasted but it still was really delicious. My daughter chose the kids fish and chips, I chose the Cobb salad and the rest of our table did shrimp or mahi mahi tacos. Everything was very tasty and I enjoyed my glass of rosé. Was nice to look out at the water while we ate. Would come back again if in the area!
