This was my first time at this restaurant and it was a great experience! Great food at fair prices and friendly service! I would highly recommend it! The restaurant has a sports bar feel to it but laid back. We had a great time and I am looking forward to coming back!

Nothing really wrong with the food - acceptable but not really special. It's Sysco food selection which is standard. Poblano corn isn't poblano (not peppers, etc.) and barely roasted - just regular yellow corn. White cheddar Mac and cheese was very saucy, er runny. Service was good.

Food was amazing ! Host was very very nice and checked on us a lot ! This wasn’t on trip advisor and we almost missed seeing it but glad we didn’t . Hopefully they can get that fixed or at least put a big sign on road so more people can enjoy it .

I genuinely don't understand the poor reviews. Maybe I just went on a really good day but the waitress was very polite and tender to the table well, food was pretty good too. My only complaint would be the music was so loud that I couldn't hear anyone talk but some people like that in a restaurant.

Great food and great service. This was my first time here. I had the Woodbooger Bowl with chicken. The ingredients tasted fresh and the chicken was prepared and seasoned very well! I'd like to eventually try a dessert, but I didn't today. There's enough seating albeit a tiny bit cramped. They do have seating outside out back that's covered with a sunshade. The parking is mostly along the embankment in front of the restaurant. There are several handicap spots right at the door. Overall, it was a good experience. I'll definitely be back, Lord willing. Kudos to our waitress!
