• hip hop and blood mary's

  by Samir Nazir

  
  

• Most delicious caprese ever-- Thai caprese salad, with heirloom tomatoes. Ruby red grapefruit added extra kick!

  by Kathleen V.

  
  

• The naan club and the appetizer mushrooms. Both tasty and ample portions. But the real game-changer was Jessie, our server. We'll return if we can have her take our table. She deserves a raise!

  by Don W.

• Bring back the steak and frites with chimichurri sauce!

  by Carly J

  
  

• Steak and eggs is the best dish on the brunch menu, closely followed by the Green Eggs 'n' Hamms. Skip the Royal Bee cocktail, it's overpoweringly gingery. And I love ginger.

• The fries are amazing

  by Sarah C.

  
  

• Perfect for a date night.

  by Forrest J.

• Upscale pub in urban environment with great atomosphere, food and outdoor capability in warmer months.

  by Dan B.

  
  

• Everything is great here, but must mention that the music is better than a playlist than I'd have at home. Props to the dj or pandora station.

  by Andrew

  
  

• Don't order the sausage and kraut special. It's more like an appetizer than a meal. 1 sausage and a 1/4 cup of kraut for 11.00, really?

  by Scott K.
