Came in on a busy Saturday night and was greeted by a dirty plate with silverware on top. We then ordered the Onion rings. The batter was undercooked and extremely salty. I decided to order the pulled pork open faced sandwich. Once I received it it looked very good. But once I took a bite I found it to be beef and not pork. I allowed our table of six to all sample it to confirm it was beef and not pork. I smoke pork and beef all the time so it was no question to me. I proceeded to have it sent back. The kitchen staff tried to say it was pork but another plate on our table had pork and it tasted completely different. Waiter was very nice and accommodating. I certainly can't blame her for any of the events. Overall when the food is averaging $20-25 a person this is unacceptable and we will not be returning.

The menu is quite varied and there is a lot to choose from, but so far everything I've tried here is very good. The atmosphere is great and the service is excellent. Try sitting outside on the patio on a nice day.

Good selection of Canadian, Irish whisky and Bourbon. Wish they had bigger selection of Japanese Whisky or Scotch. Their prices for a dram of Whiskey is really affordable. Only ate off their appetizer menu and the serving size is enough for two and prices are good.

The staff are always kind and professional. I highly recommend ordering their tacos because they are incredibly flavorful and have a lovely texture. Looking for gluten free substitutions? The chef will modify a dish for you without any issue or hesitation and it WILL be amazing! I absolutely love this place and highly recommend it as a perfect dining experience before seeing a show; especially if you'd like a beer or cider!

This is one of my favorite local places. They have a great selection of bourbons and whiskeys and make a pretty decent cocktail. Food is good, service while slow at times is still pretty good.
