    Great bar to watch a major sporting event! The atmosphere was lively, with plenty of screens and a great crowd. The truffle fries and burger were both delicious and cooked perfectly. The cocktails were awesome as well—well-made and flavorful. Definitely a great spot for food, drinks, and catching the big game.

    My friends and I had a most wonderful lunch this week! The lovely young woman who checked me in was working the bar and restaurant and did so in a graceful manner and knows the word hospitality! From letting us choose a corner booth for my friend's bad leg, to letting me substitute a salad for fries....and this wasn't just a few lettuce leaves but a spinach salad with tomatoes...to letting us dine unhurried. Our dishes were wonderful- I had the steak and eggs, which were terrific. Prices are reasonable and the dining room decorated like a country inn added to the experience. Can't wait to return!
