They only do reservations for groups of 10 or more, and it was a Thursday evening during peak dinner hours. We got there before 7pm and ate close to 9pm. The tavern was crowded and overstimulating. The pork ribs were a standout, and we really enjoyed them. The spicy mac and cheese was also phenomenal. The potato salad was alright. The bar, however, was out of a lot of drinks. They also did not have or at least did not give us any menus. The server listed the options after we asked, but it's not very accommodating to just hear the options instead of seeing a menu, especially for people who have hearing issues or don't understand English super well. Not knowing the prices beforehand was also disappointing.
