    All day Happy Hour on Monday’s! Fantastic selection of menu items. Food was great. Although it was raining out, the patio area was covered and we didn’t feel the effects of the weather. Our service started out great, but towards the end of the meal took a dip. Overall, we will be back!

    Wonderful experience! Great waitstaff, amazing food. The portions are not huge, however, so would not recommend sharing unless you all wanted to try to a few different things. Definitely will visit again.
