Food: Bland, forgettable fare
Don't expect culinary delights at this joint. The Pizza with Mushroom and the Large Pizza are touted as the best, but they fail to offer a taste bud stunner, falling onto the 'bland' side of the flavor spectrum. Food freshness is another issue, with many dishes coming off as stale or processed - like some frozen relic from the past. Creativity is definitely missing, and despite the neutral stance on variety, the menu comes across as outdated.
Great Portions
Hearty portions widely appreciated for sharing and overall satisfaction.
Okay Variety
Variety pleases most but some find the menu overwhelming and inconsistent.
Quality
Food often bland, stale, processed, or lacking in flavor, some frozen.

Vibe: Lifeless, outmoded ambiance
The vibe here couldn't be any more vintage - and not in a good way. The ambiance is shockingly outdated, to the point of annoyance. Live music makes for a discordant background, disrupting the dining experience, and the lack of modern trendy vibes solidifies this place's status as unhip. It's definitely not a destination for date night.
Okay Drinks
Decent beer selection and prices, but improvements can be made.
Bad To Entertain
Live music did not enhance the dining for a mixed clientele.
Perks: Cool for kids, sadly slow
Even with perks being somewhat acceptable, users reported slow service and off-putting staff interactions. They do have a redeeming feature - a child-friendly approach, with an expansive kids' menu and a friendly atmosphere for families. However, don't expect the service to dazzle you. Parking doesn't upset, with both valet and street options hinted at.
Great for Kids
Has a breadth of choices on the kids' menu; very family-friendly.
Okay Parking
Valet parking is often available but street parking is also possible.
Bad Service
Slow service and rude staff interactions were the main complaints.
