We had brunch for Mother’s day. Our waiter Mike was wonderfully friendly and attentive. He menu was varied and everyone found something unique and delicious. We had leftovers for the next day which was a bonus!

Everything was great, but the time it took for our food to come out was a bit too long. It seemed that the kitchen was unable to handle the start of the dinner rush.

It was incredibly loud. In addition to the March madness games (which was great), there was a singing duo playing which was so not needed when the televisions were blasting. We were also seated in an area where the people's voice were SO LOUD and really carried. I couldn't wait to get out of there. No need for singers in a sports bar!

I waited quite a while to leave this review, because I typically do not want to impact the livelihood of anyone. That said, this was the WORST dining experience I've had in the past decade (at least). Meals did not arrive at the same time, and the Barramundi in my meal (that came out last and took more than 30 minutes to arrive to the table) WAS RAW in the middle. What's worse, the server who was in the care of the table next to me, decided to put his butt in my fact while he took their order amongst other unprovoked rude and passive aggressive bumps, etc. Just a joke of a human. Someone did come to the table to attempt to address it, but didn't take the time to introduce himself, didn't apologize, just a 30 second exchange without anything more than 'checking the boxes'. I will never go back, and I would urge you to spend your hard-earned money elsewhere as well.

Had a reservation. The hostess proceeded to sit us at a different table than the other guests from our reservation despite giving her the same name. Tables were VERY close together. The table next to us was literally less than 6 inches apart from ours. Very noisy. Could barely here the people at my table. If there was music playing, we couldn't hear it. Another guest and I ordered the same beer but each received a different one. Saw our waitress very infrequently, however I'm willing to chalk that up to them being very busy.

Would have appreciated either someone coming by more often to refill water glasses or just a cold pitcher on the table. For some reason, we had a gentleman repeatedly coming by the table to request to remove serving plates that clearly still had food on them.

It was a Saturday night. 6 o’clock. They had a guitarist, saxophone and bass. Good music but Extremely loud. We could not even hold a conversation. Couldn’t wait to finish and leave. Bummer. Burgers were good.

Very loud. They had a band playing - it was impossible to talk to friends across the table. Our waitress was very good but there was a random other man, not sure if he was the manager, who kept asking to clear our plates even tho we still had food on them. They have to maybe only have the band for happy hour- for dinner it was too much. This is the 2nd time we’ve had this experience here.
