    Was nice place, dark though and then they turned down what light they did have on. Made it hard to read the menu. portions were small. ordered a bacon on bacon BLT and there was very, very little bacon. Used bread not suitable for the sandwhich. Cheese curds were good.

    Total experience was first-time great! We had a reservation and were succinctly offered a lovely table for our party of 4 that felt intimate and close, while still in the middle of an active scene. We were celebrating the night before our wedding with friends that couldn’t make it the next day, so we wanted a very casual, cozy evening and they delivered! Cocktails were up first and just right. We got the fries on a whim and are still talking about them in the group chat two days later. Pizza menu is super exciting and it’ll obviously take us several visits to even comment on what’s the best. Our party had some dietary needs and they were handily catered to. The service was so, so great! So many different people tended to us, and never short on anything we needed. We’ll come back again and again just for the beaming personalities and attention to detail. And an easy hop-in after work in its location!
