    Great burgers. The pizza is a little big for lunch! Best to split; server warned us ahead of ordering. Three-way is always great. Friendly service, great atmosphere.

    Outdoor patio (radiant) heating was uncomfortable and should not be considered same as indoor seating. Good food and excellent service

    Using the OpenDoor app made getting a reservation quick & painless. We arrived & were immediately seated. Prompt waiter service & a quick kitchen brought out our food in a short time. Good ambiance & a busy restaurant showed it was a popular establishment. Look forward to visiting them again!

    Service was impeccable. Food was OK at best. Avoid dinner entrees and stick to finger foods and "bar food". They try to be a restaurant and a bar but they are really a bar trying to be a restaurant. I'm in no hurry to return.
