★★★★★ 5.0 thomas Sullivan · Dec 2025

Located right near our home, I’ve visited this neighborhood bar twice in December—once on a Thursday night and again recently for brunch. With 38 years in the hospitality industry, I have a strong understanding of how these businesses operate. The food is good, and the service is very solid for a neighborhood bar. I genuinely want to support this place. That said, ownership and staff may benefit from viewing a few aspects of the experience through a guest’s perspective. I offer this feedback sincerely and hope it’s taken in the constructive spirit intended, because with a couple of small adjustments, the overall experience could be noticeably improved. First, the use of Fabuloso is extremely overpowering. While staff and ownership may be accustomed to the scent, guests definitely notice

Cute lil dive. I had a smash burger and it was okay. The sauce was not very flavorful unfortunately. The fries were a lovely type of shoestring that I haven’t had anywhere else.

We stopped in with a group of 8, and despite being a smaller establishment they were happy to accommodate us. Service was top notch with servers who were genuinely kind and attentive. Food was wonderful. I've never had mozz sticks like I had here, and let me tell you, they were wonderful. The smash burger was also out of this world. Highly recommend for great food, great service, and a cozy but lively atmosphere.
