AshleyJune 8, 2015Delish all the way around! Food, drinks, & service was great! Salmon was amazing and the fried deviled eggs and fried avocado were something I'd never tried before! Go!
I love the food here even though 90% of the time I order the fried porkchop with Gouda Mac and cheese. Have a craft brew and enjoy some good food while you scream at the Grizzlies on the tv.
The popcorn and duck fried rice are as good as you heads in the Food Network review.
Russell NevellNovember 20, 2015Popcorn is great and good selection of drinks but bartender far too busy chatting up to provide any sort of decent service. I can count on my fingers how many people are here.- Lindsey TurnerJanuary 9, 2011The free popcorn is great but try not to accidentally inhale the seasoning because you will choke and your companions will act like they don't know you.
Michael AshbyJune 23, 2013The Duck Patty Melt is mind blowingly good. Ground duck, Gouda, grilled onions and more butter than you deserve. So delicious you'll need a nap after eating it.- Lindsey HMay 23, 2014Late night menu has fewer options, but still delightful. Gouda mac n cheese is a game changer. I highly recommend it!
Matt BahledaMarch 7, 2013The beer is kept a little too cold for the quality of beer. Otherwise, great place, all regional beers on tap, cool bartenders. Thumbs up!
Justin ShawMay 24, 2013The patio is awesome. Get the brussel sprouts or the gouda mac n cheese. The duck patty melt is amazing
Everything! Duck Patty Melt, Mac & Cheese, Bar Pie Special, cocktails and beer on tap
Brintha VilvarajahJanuary 18, 2014Love the Moscow Mules to drink and the Chicken & Waffle sliders, Fried Avocado, Onion Rings
Daniel Bastardo BlancoMay 30, 2015Sit on the little bar facing the window and enjoy some good people-watching. Popcorns are free.
Nash PleasantSeptember 10, 2018Duck egg fried rice as a starter. Anything else on the menu after. Everything is good
George FarkasDecember 13, 2012Didn't try the rabbit sausage, but the burger and service were outstanding!
Cliff KirkMay 27, 2013I never thought i would say these words. Brussels sprouts were amazing! Seriously, order them.
Chad BartonJanuary 16, 2011The shrimp and grits are amazing! Spicy and the grits are in "fry form". Awesome!
BethumsAugust 4, 2013Nice decor. Food ok. Had egg BLT and banana foster pancakes. Huevos ranchero not good. Like a bean sandwich. But they do donate to dogs second chance organization!!!
The adult cherry limeade ($6) tastes just like a boozy version of what you'd get at Sonic.
- The best popcorn that you will ever have in your life.

Sweet potatoes hash is amazing. Comes with a sunny side up egg on top:)
- Can't miss the new menu! As always too many great new options to choose from. Kick it up with the new steak salad.
- Pork egg rolls are the FIRE. Also the gumbo is better than pearls just 1 block away.
The Commercial AppealSeptember 14, 2011Now serving lunch. Try the duck confit salad for something different.
I got here a lil early but, this is a great place to catch a couple of beers and watch sportscenter. I will return.
- The Commercial AppealJuly 2, 2010Their burgers are amazing. Make sure to take advantage of the free popcorn.
Great beer list. For food, I would go to Local instead.
Free popcorn is nice but the cocktails and food are a little frilly for my taste.
The chicken sandwich on the winter menu is not to be missed!
