    Overall it's definitely more bar then restaurant. They have a nice space outside that feel good given the current COVID environment. Food was was mediocre but service was fairly good.

    Hamburger and chicken sandwich were just okay. There was nothing special about either. Waitress had no personality and seemed like she didn’t want to be there. Will not dine there again.

    Upbeat sports bar feel. Not what we were expecting or looking for. Also they were out of several things on their menu.

    We had a quick weekday dinner and quite enjoyed Sterling. It was fairly empty on the patio so we felt very safe. We're pescatarian and had no problems identifying good options; the shrimp tacos and buffalo cauliflower were delicious, and the pretzel was the perfect level of soft and salty.

    First time there. Sat on the patio. Nice set up with lovely flowers. Had drinks only. The wine choices are very nice and served cold. The draft beers “were coming out warm” so our server recommended one of the canned beers which was cold. Due to quick change in weather we decided not to stay for food. Would go back.
