The wings 🔥🔥🔥🔥💯. Crazy how good the Sweet heat wings are, and on Tuesday, it's $1 a wings. Bloody Mary's are wild as hell, and the drinks are very reasonable. Go here if you are an hour away its still worth the trip

Super friendly as soon as we walked in. We sat at the bar, prompt service and ordered an extreme bloody Mary on a Sunday. The bloody Mary itself was a perfect combination, then to add everything on top was phenomenal. This is a must try.

Update…I wanted to come back and update my review as the owner so kindly reached out to me when they saw my review and wanted to make it right. She went above and beyond to make it right and correct the issues to avoid them in the future. She definitely made me change my mind and I will give them another chance in the future. I want to love them but every time I have ordered anything from here for takeout I am waiting for at least an extra 30 minutes to actually get our food from the time they tell us it will actually be ready. and the employees are not apologetic whatsoever and act as if I am bothering them. And while waiting after telling her my food was suppose to be ready 30 minutes ago a grubhub delivery driver showed up and she looked at me to tell me that she had to get his order ready first. then she had the audacity to tell me if i was going to wait for my food or just leave. Clearly they lack customer service and basic manners.

My girlfriend told me about this place, she promised that the soup flights were too notch and she was not lying. We tried a majority not the soups including Italian wedding, lasagna soup, sausage tortellini and french onion soup. They were all delivered to us hot and delicious. We happened to be on a Norwegian cruise and mentioned to a traveller we were going to tap it for soup flights and have it be known they were also patrons of this fine establishment. My only suggestion would be to make sure to add a grilled cheese to your selection as it made mine the best experience ever. Such a great idea and so delicious. I can't wait to come one a Sunday for their famous bloody Marys. I forgot to mention the delicious wings I ordered. I'll let you try them on your own. They were totally worth it 😉

Rolled into town on Sunday. At 8pm. 3 hour drive and no place was open that served a steak. Google landed me here tonight and I could not be any happier it did! What an amazing little spot. Friendly staff, amazing food and good tunes playing. The ribeye was perfectly cooked 😋

Food is really good but service was bad. First server walked away before I could even complete my order, I went up to the bar to finish ordering which was a burger that added my existing appetizer. I told the first server the food was to-go but they brought out each item separately and for dine in. They also brought me the wrong burger I ordered one that had has browns and an egg on it and this one came with brisket. Didn’t even want to correct them because I didn’t want to wait any longer. My experience could’ve been one off but definitely worth never going here again.
