Vic is the most awesome waiter I've met in a while. He has amazing suggestions and he was right on target about those char-grilled oysters! He accommodated all of our big party group's needs. Props !

Never a cover when DJs are playing. Come any Friday or Saturday. Hell, come *every* Friday and Saturday!

The gin fizzes are delicious but ridiculously sweet. Plan for a water or fried food chaser!

Adult trivia is the best. Chris is a great trivia master and Tim makes good drinks.
