Brett Ross: The fry bread appetizer was so good. Delicious osso bucco and fun cocktails!
Josh: Not a lot of tables, so even with a reservation our party had to wait. Food was not great; only decent thing was bread and dip. Drinks were good.
Matt Dermody: Fry Bread with the Pepperoni Butter is a must. The rest of the menu rotates but apparently the Fry bread is here to stay.
