It was a cold rainy night and the only seating was outside. The fire pit was nice but it was still chilly. The fire pit did create a nice atmosphere. We were sitting near the opening so it was still a little chilly. Food was okay. I personally had the chicken fajitas which was okay. The flavor reminded me of packaged seasoning. Wasn't a big fan. My cousin had a burger. He said that it was okay. The restroom wasn't very clean. It may just be because they had a party going on. Price per person $20–30 Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

We came for date night during a wind storm. Before we got our food the power went out (on that whole side of the city) The staff was very quick to talk to our table and the others to see if we would like to wait and see if it went back on or if we wanted to leave.. they didn’t kick us out. We chose to stay, they could still serve drinks. They have a fireplace and it was actually kinda cozy. Waitress brought some popcorn and I asked for celery with blue cheese too. After about 30 minutes the power was restored. We received our food quickly and it was delicious. Will recommend to all our friends. Staff is great, food is great, atmosphere is great.

We ate here Saturday night, and it was very good. The service went over and beyond, and the food was served quickly. I rated the atmosphere 3 stars because it was crowded and loud. There were no quiet areas for diners who would want to converse without shouting. Considering how packed it was, the food didn't take long to be brought to us, and our waitress was attentive and very friendly. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3
Took a few minutes before we were waited on, not really an issue though. The issue started when she brought it drinks then left without asking if we were ready to order. 10 minutes later, she came back for our order. 45 minutes after that, she finally brought our foods out. It wasn't busy enough to justify the delay. I ordered my burger medium, it was well done. The top bun was dry from sitting under the heat lamp for an extended amount of time. When she finally came to check on us again, I asked for a couple of boxes and the check. She's brought boxes but no check. After 20 minutes, a different waitress came to take the dirty dishes. I asked her to bring the check because we had someplace to go. We allowed ourselves more than 90 minutes of extra time, we were still late because this waitress couldn't be bothered. I don't recommend this place. It has been almost 30 years since I last went here, I'm not sure I'll ever return.
Not sure if the area is just low quality food in general or if this place is just straight bad. Only giving 2 stars because we got a seat right away. Shockingly bad food. Wow! Food: 1 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 3

Super lovely time sitting outside for dinner. Ordered the pulled pork nachos, but with waffle fries instead of chips, with the cole slaw and ranch on the side. YUM! ;) Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

A friend recommended this place to me for when I came up here! Glad he did! Nice place with character! Service staff very friendly! Quick with the drinks and food! On top of their game! Had French dip sandwich with fries, it was delicious! Would like to come here again when I’m back in the area! Plenty of seating inside and out! Plenty of parking!
This place has great food, but they are known for their burgers. The inside of the restaurant is small, so keep that in mind. I can't wait to go when the outside pato is open. Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

Nice rustic pub feeling. I can only give 4 stars because I just went for drinks, I did not eat. But the service was quick and friendly, the prices were very reasonable. Price per person $10–20 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

The food is pretty good. First time I tried the pizza. Not bad. Their panini are really good as well. The French Open soup is delicious. It is a pub with all that bar food as well. Nice theme of the sports bar. The building is an old train station. Nicely done. Good food and decent service. Nice outdoor seating as well.
