The food selction is always great and the fun drinks are a go-to. Housemade sodas and fizzy drinks are fantastic. Wait staff is happy, and that makes for good quality service. One of my favorite places to go.

We went on a Thursday night as a couple for a celebratory dinner. It was fun being greeted by Eddie the Gangster and hearing his story. The place was crowded but they got us a table close to the time of our reservation. You wait in the car until they text you that the table is ready. There was live, gentle guitar music being played and we enjoyed it all through dinner. We shared the crab cakes, a bottle of red wine, the filet mignon with baked potato and green beans, and a cinnamon roll cake for dessert. The server was attentive and pleasant. Very nice evening out. We'll be back!
