    "E un bel localino dove si puo mangiare e bere. La scelta sia per i cibi che per le birre e buona, hanno anche la nostra acqua. Il personale e molto gentile, nel dubbio sulla scelta della birra la ragazza ci ha pure portato degli assaggi per decidere, oltre che ad essersi preoccupata di impostarci la rete dati. Molto bene. Le porzioni sono abbondanti, ho preso un fish and chips decisamente delizioso; se non avete intenzione di rotolare dopo mangiato consiglio la mezza porzione. Quella che ho preso io era la full. Prezzi buoni, sicuramente diversi da quelli in centro a NY."

    "I heard so many good things about this place, I had to check it out! It was well worth every dime!! It's a rather casual and intimate atmosphere! Very clean bar and visually appealing! The bartender and servers were very helpful and polite! I started with a Strawberry Mojito which was delicious! We started with the sweet and spicy wings. General Tso's on side and Buffalo on the other. The chicken was boneless, tender and full of flavor! Fried to perfection I may add. My bf had Lobster Bisque..we shared everything! The bisque had the perfect amount of sherry, creamy and delicious. The only complaint is the lack of lobster in the bisque. As our entrees we had Seafood pot pie and London Broil w/sides! Both great choices. We order half order of pot pit and full of London broil. Delicious! Plenty of seafood, tender, fresh, buttery and seasoned to perfection! London broil was cooked just to my specifications and the glaze and mushrooms were phenomenal. Great portions! Even the mashed potatoes, rice pilaf and salad were tasty!! Over all a great place with amazing food!! Only issue is I had to have them reheat my meal it was not served as hot as it should have been! Otherwise great experience!! We will be back!!"

    "Pretty average, as expected. Generally, everything is pretty salty and heavy handed with sauce. Side salad was laughable, and waffle fries were super salty. The chicken in the Tuscan chicken sandwich was well cooked and tender, though it was overdressed. My friend had the veggie burger, and she said it didn't leave much of an impression. Just an average place to come if you run out of options."

    "Great food. Great down to earth owner. Liked their Chicken two ways, Juicy burgers, large oversized customizable salads, homemade potato chips, almost everything on the menu."
