When real estate is too tough to find - it’s standing room only!

In the warmer months, guests can choose to dine outside, on Chandler’s brick courtyard.

Nice casual patio dining experience (no view). Pulled pork quesadillas were flavorful and filling however we sent back the burnt ends Mac & Cheese as it was very runny and did not contain burnt ends, just a bit of pulled pork. Service was good.
