I do understand that they serve specialty cocktails, so maybe that's why everything took so long and we were in a large group. However, when my drink was empty, the server took orders of the people sitting next to me at my table and then walked away without asking me if I wanted anything. I had to flag her down later for another drink, which I usually feel rude for doing. Overall, it just felt like the servers weren't very attentive, but the drinks were good and the people that had food liked it so I would come back!

Loved the house made ketchup and fresh onion rings . Wow . Service was outstanding and the place felt up scale . Price for a Burger and fries was under 20 bucks. But watch out for the beer prices 14 bucks for a micro brew was a bit step . Did not see the beer prices on the menu. AMBIANCE was as expected. Mens bathroom was a bit rough dividing walls were pulled out of wall and urinal was leaking water. Yes I understand this is a food review But at 100 bucks for Burgers and beer . And with in a few blocks of Notre Dame in a new area I expect just a higher standard. But I would eat thier again
