Food: Food hits and misses in equal

The mac and cheese is unmistakably creamy and delicious, often praised as a highlight. Chicken skewers and garlic fries also earn nods for flavor and texture. Despite tasty eats and generous portions, some stale items and a limited, typical bar menu keep the food from fully impressing.

  • Great Value

    Happy hour specials and overall pricing provide incredible, unbeatable value.

  • Okay Variety

    Decent selection, varies from typical bar food, good for pairing.

Vibe: Loud buzz with dated interior

The vibe is a mixed bag: karaoke and live music inject fun and energy, drawing a lively crowd. Yet the dark, cramped, and somewhat dingy setting, combined with crowd noise, makes it difficult to unwind or enjoy a quiet date night.

  • Great Sound

  • Okay Comfort

  • Bad Aesthetic

    Dim lighting, cramped, loud music, and outdated decor detract from experience.

Perks: Service and parking paint the picture

Perks lean neutral at best. Parking is a notorious headache, and noise is a constant challenge. Service can swing from slow to friendly, while reservations work fine if booked early. The space does well accommodating large groups, though outdoor seating is scarce when busy.

  • Okay Cleanliness
