    I thought this place would be a bit posh after visiting the patio shortly after it opened - I was disappointed to find that the inside is a decaying dive bar.

    This restaurant offered exceptional value for the food we received. We decided on Cause and Effect for a double birthday dinner. Just the two of us, we started with the bruschetta which was glazed with a balsamic vinaigrette which I definitely recommend. Although we ordered the Penne Alfredo with chicken, which must’ve been misheard because we received the Penne Pesto with chicken which was exceptional, so we decided not to tell our waitress. Besides that little slip up, the service was amazing and she kept bringing me refills on ice tea with no extra charge. After we filled up on Penne, our waitress surprised up with a free birthday funnel cake sticks with ice cream dessert. Although we were feeling a little full, we fought through and devoured the dessert. It was amazing. The ambience was quiet for most of the time, but there were a few kids running around causing a little ruckus. Overall, our visit was a great way to spend our birthdays and I 100% recommend this restaurant. Expect to pay around 30-40$ per person (portions are very worth the price).

    Horrible customer service. Being scammed by waitress. Waitress stated to us that Belgium moon was apart of the $5 drafts. We got charged $10 for it. She proceeded to say “sorry if I said it was part of the deal, it was not part of the deal, I am sorry” upon further reading the bill we were also charged for truffle fries $12 that we did not order or receive. We also got up charged for $3 for adding ice cream to our funnel cake fries that comes with ice cream as stated on the menu. Waitress ARGUED with me that the menu is wrong and ice cream is not included despite it saying “with velvety ice cream” she refused to give us a proper refund, instead offered a gift card for $15. We were charged for a product we didn’t order/recieve, definitely manipulated with the draft beer pricing and also up charged for something that was included with the meal. We did not want a gift card as we are never returning. Due to being on a time restraint, and with the waitress straight up arguing with us over these over charges we opted to just leave.

    The service and food were amazing! Our server was running the bar/dinner service by herself and still gave amazing customer service. She came by for several quality checks and refilled our beverages without us having to ask! She was very personable and made us feel like we've known her forever! On top of that, she gave us some really good recommendations for the menu. We will be back!
