    Our favorite post game hangout. Great variety on the menu and everything we’ve ever ordered has been delicious. We especially love the French onion soup, the lobster Mac n cheese and the burgers. Staff are very friendly and very attentive. Highly recommend.

    This is my second time coming for Happy Hour, and again, lived up to my expectations!!! The service is amazing and the food took a lot shorter than expected, especially since we ordered two pizzas and salads, along with our drinks. The pizzas were phenomenal and I cannot recommend them both, the truffle and seasonal butternut squash, enough! The restaurant itself is very pretty on the inside and the lighting is light just enough, without being too bright. The manager is also very lovely and you can tell they really care about the restaurant and customers. Will definitely be coming back!!
