Expensive meals, staff seems pushed to get you to buy more things.
Very loud, hard to have a conversation - even at lunch

Enjoyed the portabello sandwich - they were kind enough to replace the fries with slaw.

Probably not the best night to give my opinion of this place - new years - but i didn't like it.

Bar staff was surley and changed the price of the beverages at will.
It was dark and anh.

The band was ok

I'd probably not return of my own volition.

$3.50 for a slice of pepperoni.
$6 for a draft pour of avery white rascal.
