    Draft selection is always rotating, and they always have something exceptional. Service in the bar area is the best in town. Wish I lived closer, this would be my neighborhood haunt.

    Corned beef & cabbage was great, and the Taco Salad is always a good choice!

    Had shrimp alfredo for the 1st time a few weeks ago & it was phenomenal! Came back for it tonight & it wasn't even close to what it was before. Major disappointment. And they don't have Mascato :(

    Haven't been here since last spring. French onion soup was disappointing. Sent the side salad back because the lettuce was brown & smelled funky. The rueben ,soso. Waitstaff sucked. FAIL

    Way, way too slow for lunch. You need at least an hour because of the slow service.
