Inside this old, under-renovation building is a gem of a restaurant and bar. While it likely is known for its pizza, it has a wide variety of items on the menu. It also has a full bar. It offers high top seating with banquet style seating in a dining area off the bar. It is decorated with photos of old Hollywood stars. Our group tried a little of everything during our visit. Fish fry, chicken Parmesan sandwich, meatloaf, pizza and a chicken sandwich were ordered by the group. One member of the group said his chicken Parmesan was the best he'd ever had. The meatloaf was huge and extremely flavorful. The pizza was really tasty and the chicken sandwich was...a chicken sandwich. Personally, I had the fish fry (offered on Friday and Saturday nights). It could be prepared three ways. I took the house special corn meal. I received a hearty portion. Like all meals eaten, it came out hot and well prepared. I eat a lot and the four piece meal was not only delicious, but filling. My drinks were nicely priced and mixed nicely by our busy server. She and the cook appeared to be the only staff working during our visit. Overall, we worked past the construction and enjoyed a very good meal at a reasonable price. We will definitely return in the future.

Even the restrooms were super clean and modern. I happened to be waiting for the restroom while we waited for our food, and an employee came out after washing his hands, so cleanliness is definitely a 10/10! We only waited maybe 6 minutes for our food, which was surprisingly fast, and it was amazing. Everything tasted fresh, and the flavors were so good and creative. Definitely a great lunch spot and somewhere we'd come back to!

Excellent service (they know how to pour a good cocktail), excellent conversation, and a great way to spend a lil' time. You MUST order the chicken wings. They were so incredibly delicious and they came with unexpected but seriously good French fries. We also had the pizza (pepperoni and green olive) which was great. I've read other reviews that say it's kinda spendy but truth be told, they run a great operation with local flair. I can't be mad to get awesome pizza without pretension. It is exactly what you want. I only wish I lived nearby so this could be my regular watering hole.
