★★★★☆ 4.0 Michael E · Jun 2025

The interior is really neat. Very much an old, rustic cabin feel. There were lots of locals the night we went. The chicken wings were very good. I like the thin breading a lot. They were big and juicy. The sauce wasn’t quite what I’d like but that’s probably a preference issue more than a quality issue. I had the pasta. The noodles and sauce were exceptional. Unfortunately, the shrimp were way over cooked. I probably would have given the food 5 stars if it weren’t for the fact that the shrimp a $12.00 add to the pasta and were rubbery. The drinks were good. We’ll definitely be back. Overall, it was a great experience.

I have been going here for years, the staff and food NEVER disappoint. There's nothing that I don't recommend. However, I mainly get the steak and shrimp and try whatever dessert they have at that time. Their Crème brûlée has been a repeat fave of ours. They do have a small pull tabs machine and keno for down time. Lots of drinks, wine, and beers to choose from.

This is such a neat little neighborhood restaurant/bar. My mom lives literally walking distance, so every time I come visit, we always pop in for a good home cooked meal. I've been here probably three or four or five times, and I always see the same friendly faces. I had NO idea that this place was even for sale, but apparently new owners bought it a few months ago. Had I known it was for sale, I might have tried to buy it. It's always busy in there, and I even think sometimes there's a short wait. They have outdoor seating bar seating table tops, jukebox, and the place is really clean. I can't remember the dishes I've had prior, but this particular visit they had a special of German pot roast, with red cabbage and dumplings? It was so so good, and I liked the fact that the chef went

★★★★★ 5.0 Madyx Calamity · May 2023

This place was recommended to us by a colleague. Food was really good and the service super friendly and attentive! We had the onion rings, the special fish of the day and a cheesecake to die for! The rustic atmosphere inside is very cool! Don't miss their Tavern chips! The dip they come with is addictive.
