    This place is pretty run down and the food is abysmal, especially for the prices charged. The real kicker is that this establishment charges a 3% fee on all bills to cover the cost of "inflation." I did not see this charge advertised on the menu before ordering, you're just left with it once you get the bill. This is an incredibly shady practice to extract more money from customers while appearing to keep costs "low." I refuse to believe this fee goes back to the employees, this is just another example of corporate greed, why not just change the menu prices if you need more money to make a profit? Regarding the food, I ordered the crispy brussels sprouts and they came out without the bacon, but even when I notified the waitress and she brought me a cup of bacon, it didn't improve the taste. I also ordered the honey chipotle salmon that was on special and it was SWIMMING in the sauce. I couldn't even attempt to eat any of the rice pilaf that came with it because it was practically just soup due to the amount of sauce. Not to mention the sauce was very strange and congealed, it kept getting stuck to my teeth like caramel. On top of this, the place is falling apart, the ceiling tiles are falling down, the chairs are on wheels(?) and don't fit at the tables, the waiting area seating booth is ripped so bad it's practically split in two. I would never go back and I actually would encourage others to avoid it here, I'm surprised by all the good reviews.

    Stopped by for a drink and dinner. Seated right away outside. Outside bar & picnic tables with umbrellas to block the sun. Waitress was really nice. All the waitresses help each other. Started with the fried calamari. You can tell it is frozen. The calamari was fried harder than I prefer. The food portions are big and can be shared. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming to families or date night. I would return when in the area.

    So I was in Pennsylvania for a New Year's party and the Giants played. So I asked my friend where to watch the game. She recommended her favorite spot "The W Tavern" and said the wings are excellent. I mean football and wings, what could be better? We goto to the bar around twelve thirty and asked the bar tender, named Michelle, if they could put one tv on for the Giants game? Now, remember, this is a Pennsylvania restaurant so it's a curtesy for them to put the game on. However, they didn't have Sunday Ticket, so we couldn't watch the game. What a sad state of events; the wings or the game. My hungry for the better of me so the seven people and I stayed. I have to say, I'm glad we did. The three flavors, mango habanero, garlic parmesan, and the bbq sauce, were incredible! They were a good size and they offered tons of delicious blue cheese. They offered a special so we got a great deal on the wings, also the beer, if that's your thing (I mean, it is a bar). But next event at her house, I would go back. I just hope it's not during the football season, or they get Sunday Ticket.

Drinks were strong and bar service was good. The place was busy and a bit loud on a Friday evening.

We were sat at the upstairs bar, as we were looking at a 45 minute wait otherwise. (Although a table sat empty the entire time we were there-we were told it was reserved) A happening spot that will likely see me again.

The cocktail menu looked delicious but we passed on drinking today. The beet salad had a nice twist with pears. We asked for extra goat cheese to add more of a salted balance to the salad and I would definitely order it again. My husband really liked the crispy duck dumplings, I can really appreciate the crisp which was perfectly executed. The soup of the day was a shrimp and crab chowder and was very tasty. Birria tacos left a little to be desired, a little salty and lacked a wow! The star of the meal was the mango and apricot sorbet! Perfect blend of deliciousness! Definitely recommend this place.

We went for the happy hour app and drink specials for our birthdays, but because it took our server 15 minutes to come back and check on us, they wouldn't let us get the specials. (Felt intentional, like they were stalling) Our server was nice, but not attentive at all. I would have given it 4 or 5 stars if it wasnt so pricey and the service was better. We will definitely give it a weekend try, just in case it was an off night. Tip: I was not a fan of sitting in the half booth tables right by the hostess stand. It was extra dark and it felt more like where you sit while waiting for your actual table. Ask to be seated further in the dining room...it is really cool inside! Big parties can even get seated IN a birdcage!

Prices are fair other than drink prices which were a little high. The food was delicious and had a nice appearance. The crab on the creamy linguini tasted surprisingly fresh as well. Every staff member was extremely polite as well. I will say, there were a couple individuals who appeared to be regulars that acted as if they were over served and when they left, the bartender said "I love you guys, have a good one," which was a little much even if it's for the sake of getting tips from regulars who aren't responsible enough to hold their liquor properly. The same patrons at the bar were also extremely loud which reminds you that it is a "bar" and not a fancy restaurant despite the amazing food and staff. The food and professionalism from the majority of the staff simply did not match the appearance of the workers who wore personal t-shirts which makes the whole experience feel a lot more casual despite the prices. Regardless we will be back due to the treatment from the staff and the great food!
