My first time here and it was ok. Nothing good or bad about it. Normal food that you can get anywhere. The was food came as I requested. The waitress was great. The bathrooms remind me of being in a club. Toilet paper all over the floor and on the sink they had two big rolls of paper towels just sitting there.

Our food was fantastic, portions are large. Our service was amazing. Even though it was super busy it wasn’t loud and we didn’t wait on anything. Highly recommend

We enjoyed it food. Our server was nice and helpful. The music was way too loud. I know I’m older, but it was very hard to have conversation at our table.

Good pasta - Atmosphere and service was good, we went before a concert so of course it was busy. Price point was good and the food and drinks were yummy! Bad parts - the hostess sat us at a dirty table and I had to ask her to wipe it down, the table was extremely wobbly to the point where we thought it was probably broken, and the bathrooms were disgusting!

To be honest, the food wasn't that bad! We had drinks and appetizers, but both were great! The overall look of the place is hideous. Absolutely run down and look like lipstick on a pig. Tables were all wobbly, tile had huge holes in it, and just looked dirty. The girls' outfits were a bit tasteless for a family restaurant downtown. Would I come again? Probably not, but it was the only place taking reservations the same day, and I see why.

They leave the front doors wide open so the restraint is really chilly. First seated at a broken table. Waited 10 minutes for a reseat. The service was really slow. Zero drink refills and server never checked on us.

Casual place, good food, fair price and friendly service. Fries were exceptional and I never thought I would say that about French Fries. Perfect place to go before an event downtown, especially the Footprint Center. I recommend making a reservation. Place was busy but when we arrived on time, our table was ready.
