A very homey bar filled with good people of all stripes. Everyone is welcome here and I guarantee that you'll be pleasantly surprised by both the quality of the food and the character of the owner and his employees. Great spot, cannot recommend it enough for a relaxing bite and drink.
We live in the neighborhood and go in for Happy Hour often and "special occasion dinners". We are never disappointed by our experience. The service and atmosphere are fantastic and of course the food is some of the best around. Recently they celebrated National Margarita Day by offering some of the best tacos I've ever had. They did a halibut taco and a short rib taco that impressed this transplanted Arizonan. The corn tortilla was warm and slightly crispy and the halibut was lightly breaded and as fresh as can be. The short rib taco was also very tasty. I was also impressed by their salsa which is made in-house and had just the right amount of heat. I am hoping they offer these on their bar menu again soon as I don't want to wait for Margarita Day to roll around again to have a halibut taco that good, (and I don't think I'll find a better one in the meantime).
Went for trivia night on a Tuesday (7:30 start). Wasn't overly crowded...snowy night was probably a factor. Had a great time with the significant other. A little pricy. With tip $91.00 for 5 beers, 2 hamburgers, and an appetizer. Good trivia, good service, good food.
Good place to bring a group of people that has varying tastes and dietary restrictions. I was with 5 people (one vegetarian and one gluten free vegan) and we all ordered something that we enjoyed. A couple of the portion sizes were small.
