    The food here was top notch. The dirty tots were perfection, definitely would try a main with the brisket based on how smokey and melt in your mouth it was on the tots. Met someone to catch up so we just did starters, but we will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu. I wish I caught our servers name; he was amazing too. Closing shift on 7/31/24 waiter shout out to you my guy!

    What a cute and tucked away restaurant! The menu has tons of variety too. We opted for the bbq platter and upgrade the tots to the loaded tots. They were good, but the tots became soggy after a few minutes. We also ordered the fish tacos, which were good but a little on the dry side. I asked for extra aioli sauce and it made the tacos perfect. However, they give you a massive piece of fish on each tortilla so it's definitely worth your money. The smoked wings were also outstanding! Such good smokey flavor and good sized wings. Try to sit by the window at the front of the restaurant, it's just a good view and great atmosphere.

    Service is a little off but I'll go into that shortly. Food & drink were excellent. I enjoy a good bourbon drink and their honey bourbon smash was in my top 5 drinks I've had. Really refreshing for what it was and the price was reasonable. The food was solid, my mom liked her salad & had enough leftover for a snack later. It's much bigger than the picture suggests. I liked their homemade tartar sauce on the side of the fish and chips. Not the best I've had but I wouldn't be sad if we ate here again. Ok the weird service situation. Only two employees that I could see other than the cook in back. Guy manning the bar was on his toes working as well as he could. After we sat down though, he ran out to the store next door because they ran out of Diet Coke. Totally get it and I'm guessing the other guy wasn't allowed to take orders. So we had to wait for him to get back and situated to even place an order. He was nice and also made the fantastic drink I attached. A little bit later this guy stumbles in who clearly was not a morning...er well lunch person I guess. He stood there playing with his phone, chatted the guy at the front than came around and stood in the way of the bartender who was clearly trying to keep up. Still was playing on his phone. It became clear he either works or owns the establishment. Seems sort of backwards to slow down the one person truly working. He tried to make small talk but the hangover from either the coke binge or drinking the night before definitely inhibited his performance. He basically said he hated getting up before noon. Weird thing to say but also pretty obvious based on how he was on the struggle bus. Needless to say, I hope the service improves because this place would be an option I'd frequent and recommend to others IF they can get that guy to do more than stand there playing with his phone and complain about how noon is unreasonably early .
