Reviews
When we arrived, the place was busy, but not crowded. Parking out front was full, but we managed to find a spot out back. It is a good-sized space with regular and high top tables, plus plenty of seats at the bar. We were told to seat ourselves and quickly found a table.
Service was friendly and prompt. Water was brought over and an appetizer order put in within just a few minutes. We asked a couple of questions and settled on a few items to try.
The homemade fried mozzarella was delicious. 4 good-sized crispy and gooey pieces, perfect to share. And both the marinara and Melba sauces were very good too.
The rest of our food took a bit, as we ordered pizza (knowing that most of it was coming home for lunch the next day). In order of yumminess, we had:
Boneless wings, medium – When I ordered them, I thought $15 for 10? That’s prices these days. But when they arrived, oh my goodness! Do you see this plate full of crispy chicken? Crispy, lightly sauced, large pieces of really good quality chicken. And the blue cheese was some of the best we have had (my husband is super picky about blue cheese and loved it).
Philly Steak – Real steak with mushrooms/onions/peppers and cheese on a nice crusty roll. I chose mozzarella, might go for pepper Jack next time for more kick. It was really good, my only feedback might be to add some seasoning to the steak for more flavor.
Big Mac Pizza – Honestly tied with the Phillly. Crust was perfection. Amount of beef and onion was good, I would have liked more pickles, but not everyone would agree. My biggest thought here was I would have preferred a traditional cheeseburger pizza with a mustard/ketchup base instead of this version with Russian. I really felt it was missing some zing and the next day I added a mustard/ketchup mix as a spread on top and it was pretty perfect.
Literally the only item I didn’t love were the curly fries that came with the Philly. They were definitely beyond over-cooked. But that was really minor when everything else was so amazing.
This place is a must-visit. Friendly service, great food, a nice relaxed bar if you are there for drinks and a game (Bills bar if you are curious), and a pretty chill atmosphere over all. Water was even refilled without having to ask!
There’s a really welcoming atmosphere here. Don’t be deceived by the tiny parking lot, there’s lots of tables inside. The bartender and waitress Michelle were both super friendly.
So many things jumped out on the menu, but I landed on the Tavern Sandwich. Thing had like an inch and a half of roast beef on it! The noob cook only put bacon on half the sandwich. That half was delicious lol. The garlic aioli really ties it all together.
Something about the flavor of the cheese in the French onion soup is really tasty.
Every time I drive by this place, it’s always packed. The food lived up to the hype. Try it!
I had a couple beers from a not decent tap list and had the Mexican street corn dip. I didn’t realize it would be a cold dip so that’s my bad. It was decent but not great.
I had high expectations going in and was slight disappointed. However, it’s a nice local spot to grab some food and watch a game. It’s not a place I would hurry back to though.
The staff itself is great. Very friendly, accomedating and do all do their part to make each visit a pleasant on.
The Menu, while simple, is also fitting and uniquely done. The simple but effective homemade chips n dip to the unique approach on fried mottzerella. There isn’t any on the menu I seek to avoid.
The venue is clean, welcoming, warm and homie. I feel comfortable everything I visit, a big part of this has to do with the crowd and quality of people that frequent here. It by no means caters to your stereo typical tavern/bar, where you may encounter some obnoxiously rowdy drunks. It’s safe, fun, and a great place to hang out on any given day/night.
Highly recommend.
