    Some of the best customer service I've ever experienced: the manager overheard me telling my husband that I was hot (summer night, doors all open). He actually brought this fan to our table!! Awesome!

    Once again, the bacon mac & cheese was excellent. We also tried the basic burger on brioche with egg & Gouda- effing amazing & perfectly cooked!

    Simply put, we will be back ASAP. Poutine, wild boar meatballs w/cheddar grits, mac, & gnocchi were all phenomenal. Impressive beer list and server Amanda was spectacular- so funny & knowledgeable!

    The dumplings starter is absolutely fire. Also had the Reuben, which was also excellent. The place puts out some great food to partner with its excellent draft beer list.

    Good for sports if you can get a table. The goose island Ogden is a good local craft beer. Pizza was a pleasant surprise.

    Good selection of beers, not too busy or loud. Great option for a place to grab some pre-dinner drinks.

    Large beer list, not rotating much though, still can find a few good ones. The booths are NOT the best seats, some idiot than can't sit still will sit behind you and ruin your experience

    Not surprisingly, they have a good draft selection here. Can get crowded, but there's still good service.

    Bring ear plugs unless you’re into getting ear fucked by bad music while you eat your $14 burger
