I don't usually make bad reviews, but here it goes: Prime…read moreRib Saturday Special, arrived at the start 5:00pm. Ashley our server not very attentive at all. Not asking us for refills, forgetting our salads, got Caesar dressing instead of creamy garlic. She brought the salads during dinner and that was the last we saw of her until the check. Now quality of the food: my wife and I ordered the same size steak, mine was definitely not a 12 oz. ( not that I was jealous). Ordered it medium, both were rare. The loaded baked potato's were kind of under baked. Instead of soft, very chunky and slightly warm. We ordered the sautéed Brussel sprouts which seemed a bit under cooked and possibly boiled for the additional amount charged. Been here a couple of times for the special but this time it was a big disappointment and will think next time in taking this special.

Everything was flavorful and well put together, and it made for a great dining experience in the moment. The atmosphere was also nice, and overall it felt like a solid spot to grab a meal.

Still, based on taste alone, it was impressive, and I'd consider going back while maybe trying something different next time.

Once a standout brewery deeply rooted in the Dundee community, it built its reputation on distinctive, house-crafted beers that gave it a strong local identity. In recent years, however, the beer program has shifted toward a more basic, broadly approachable lineup. While still solid and easy to enjoy, it no longer carries the same uniqueness that once set it apart. Paired with a menu of familiar comfort fare, it remains a dependable spot; more about the atmosphere and company than culinary or brewing ambition.
