It's nice that there is live music. It can get too loud at times, but the band takes breaks which also gives us some breaks. The food was delicious, specially the wings. Our whole table agreed that they're the best chicken wings we've had at a restaurant. I'm not a wing guy but these wings were converting me. Service was good but a little slow, which is understandable since they haven't officially opened yet. The arcade games were very fun. My favorites were the SpongeBob roller-coaster ride and the water-shooting raccoon game. It is very thoughtful that there are disenfecting wipes by the games requiring headsets. I also noticed the staff regularly cleaning the games and the bathroom aswell. Unfortunately, some games weren't responding that well. Overall, it was a really good experience that I recommend for special occasions with family or friends.

Amazing flavor in meat and everything else. So well considered and the soup part of the French onion soup had a great depth of flavor. The steak was well seasoned the pepper sauce was gorgeous and the mash potato’s were so tasty, even the veg was not overcooked all in a superior meal. Great wine list. Sad the place was not packed it should be every night.

We were a table of 4 celebrating one of our friend’s birthday. The food was great with excellent services. The server accommodated us with sharing of desserts, lit a birthday candle for the macaroons. She was polite, courteous and friendly. Thank you for a wonderful week day birthday lunch!😀
