Food: Food that makes taste buds dance

The Brussel Sprouts shine with a balsamic glaze that could convert vegetarians. The Cajun Shrimp Tacos bring a wave of deliciousness, while the Carne Asada Tacos offer juicy, flavorful cuts complemented by vibrant salsas. Fresh ingredients and generous portions make every bite worthy.

  • Okay Variety

    WOM lacks bite-sized context to explain the neutral Variety sway.

Vibe: Lively atmosphere but lacking charm

The ambiance at the restaurant is as exciting as a paperclip's personality. Live music on Thursdays adds a fun touch, but the minimalist decor may leave some feeling uninspired. Still, the energy is upbeat without overwhelming chaos.

  • Great Drinks

    Excellent selection of beers on tap, stout beer highly recommended.

  • Okay Aesthetic

    Ambiance considered casual with a lively vibe, but still not fancy.

Perks: Friendly staff outshines parking woes

Service is where the restaurant excels; the attentive, friendly staff ensure quick meals. The vibe is pleasant, although parking can be a tight squeeze. Still, dietary needs are met with tasty, healthy options for all.

  • Great Speed

  • Okay for Kids

    WOM lacks bite-sized context to explain the neutral Kids sway.
