Cozy. Ray, was the only server for the restaurant and bar. He was grace under pressure, personable, funny, welcoming, and accommodating to all age groups, dietary constraints, and family dynamics/personalities. As a vegetarian, I appreciated all the fresh, big chunks of veggies and feta cheese in my quesadilla; it was really good. Similarly, the tossed salad was super fresh, as was the cobb salad. The pizza crust was. amazeballs! One of the best I've ever had - texture and taste! Light, chewy and crispy! Hail that chef's recipe! We really enjoyed the fireplace on such a cold night. Highly recommend!

Great, initial and continual service with the waitress staying on top of our needs throughout the meal. Good solid pub fare food. I had the buffalo chicken wrap and my wife had the chicken parm sandwich - both were excellent. The White Russians were tall, just the way I like them - not those little, wimpy, rocks-glasses things.

The Arsenal Reserve is a modern-day Cheers; the kind of place where everyone seems to know everyone, and even if they don’t, they make you feel like they do. Every visit feels comfortable and welcoming, like walking into a familiar living room. The food is consistently great and reasonably priced, which makes coming back an easy decision. We’ve stopped in several times now, and every experience has been just as good as the last. A true neighborhood gem. We’ll definitely be back.

I stopped by for the 50¢ wing special and I was blown away. The wings came out hot, crispy, and perfectly seasoned — not overcooked or greasy like you sometimes get with deals this good. The flavor options were on point, with everything from classic buffalo to creative sauces that had just the right kick. The portions were generous, the service was fast and friendly, and the atmosphere made it easy to just relax and enjoy. For the price, you honestly can’t beat it — top-quality wings at a steal. Definitely my new go-to wing spot, and I’ll be back with friends for round two!

The food here is amazing! It’s delicious and reasonably priced, which is unheard of nowadays. Shelby is so welcoming and attentive. This is a great neighborhood place where everyone feels welcome, even as first timers. The interaction between staff and guests is so friendly, everyone belongs! As for the food: yummy! We had the Priviledges Plate as an appetizer, you choose the four appetizers: we chose pot stickers, pretzel, potato bombs eggs rolls. The pretzel was so soft and buttery. The potato bomb was by far the star of the plate! The egg roll had a nice little kick to it. For my meal I had the Iconic Crunchwrap which is huge. It was full of flavor and so delicious. The fries were among the best I’ve had - crispy and plentiful. My husband had the French dip, which he really enj
