The atmosphere here is nice, and there are plenty of TVs so you don’t have to strain your neck trying to see whatever game you’re watching. Our waitress was polite and made sure we had everything we needed.

I ordered the sirloin steak with mashed potatoes and broccoli. Unfortunately, the food was very disappointing. The steak I ordered medium rare came out closer to medium, was slightly burnt, and had absolutely no seasoning. The broccoli portion was odd—just three full stems—which left very little to actually eat. They were also undercooked and flavorless.

The mashed potatoes had the most flavor out of everything, but they tasted like they were prepared elsewhere and simply reheated here.

Based on this experience, I’d recommend thinking twice before choosing to eat here.

Teylor was an amazing server and made we always had full drinks and made sure our food orders came out in a timely manner. The Cy-Hawk game was amazing here and she was very attentive to detail. Would definitely come back just to have this amazing service.

We came here today with a larger party and had Britney as our server and she was fantastic! She kept drinks filled and made sure everything came out right! The food was good and it’s a great place to go for Saturday brunch.

I was lucky enough to go here on Wednesday night, which is when they have “all you can eat wings”. I tried them with their Mango Habanero sauce and it was amazing. It had a great blend of sweetness and hotness. My drink of choice was the Shark Punch – which I loved (had several). I told my team how good it was a several other people got one too and thought it was amazing. We had a great time! Plenty of screens to watch various games. Waitresses were extremely nice and helpful the whole time. We also tried various appetizers like the cheese curds and spinach dip which were a huge hit. One of the bar tenders did break a glass while we were there which ended up scaring a few of us for a second, but it was fine.

Terrible service. Slow despite us going around 11am and no crowd rush. Not to mention our table was covered in food crumbs when we sat down. Food was terrible. Hamburger and crinkle cut fries were bland and unseasoned. We had Onion rings for an app that were straight from the freezer with no sauces. I would’ve been better off eating at Red Robin than this place. Was looking forward to trying this place but will not be coming back. Bummer.

Had steak and shrimp and for dessert cheese cake egg rolls. If i had to rate the dishes I had. I would give it a 3 1/2 star. The steak and shrimp needed more flavor. The dessert was something different for me. It was creamy but needed to be a little more sweet. My waitress was very attentive.I like the service.

I hardly write bad reviews but some places need some feedback. And this is one of them. The service was extremely slow, it took soo long to just get water…longest I ever waited in my life..just for water. It also took a really long time for refills some of us had to go to the bar just for more water. Food also took a while to come out.

As for the food it was fine for some but mine tasted like a bunch of reheated frozen food. Especially the fries, they tasted like mush with not even a hint of salt.

I hope they change their menu to more fresh items and that service times improve since I noticed that I’m not the only one providing that feedback.

Chicken strips are really good! Our bartender Anna was amazing. She gets 5/5 stars and will be back just for the service. Give that bartender a raise!

First and last time. Special was a good deal, burgers were decent. Kids mac and cheese should not be on the kids menu. It was churched up, grainy, cheese soup with some noodles. Music was loud and had to yell to talk to my table at 830pm. Worst part was the service. Checked on once, took an hour and 15 minutes to get their burger special, non-discrete tipping options, and not even a goodnight after I over tipped while she was watching. Never again. Would rather go to Red Robin down the streeet

Has a big open seating area with TV’s scattered about. I can imagine this would be a loud environment if busy. It wasn’t bad when we were there but were not busy when I visited. They have a nice menu selection for this type of place. Overall it’s decent but for me a couple things I didn’t care for. They are not very good at grammar. If I read “ALL burgers $2 off” they do not mean all. I’m not sure what dictionary they used to define “all” The other thing is the ground beef they used is the worst tasting beef I’ve had. No flavor at all. Worth a visit but don’t get a burger.
