    We were here for a rehearsal dinner and our server could not have been more attentive and friendly. She did a fabulous job making sure we were never thirsty (or hungry)

    Great veggie burger! This place is an awesome neighborhood bar, you should come here. Please give the server, bartender, or anyone else working a smile and a generous tip, or you will burn forever!!!!

    BLT breakfast sammich was bomb. People love the sweet potato fries so ask for those as a side (however breakfast potatoes are delish). Spring for the $5 DOUBLE mimosa #treatyoself

    The seared Ahi (tuna) is delicious! It is the thick "steak" cut so don't expect what you get at a sushi place. The sauce on it is amazing as well! Just try it!!!

    Patrons get a snootful of music with their drinks on Saturdays; finding a seat may not always be easy, but enjoying the sweet bebop combos is almost guaranteed.

    Fried chicken is a popular choice but I was expecting much more fried and a lot less unfried. Stay away if you're craving a breaded fried chicken
