  The black bear salad was REALLY good! And I loved the Reuben. I'm picky about my Reubens. And this one was really good. I subbed out the fries for asparagus. I know. Kinda weird for a reuben. Don't judge, it was good 😂The server was super nice. And I loved all the easy parking.

  Love the food, service and atmosphere here but am very discouraged that y’all stopped making the bonfire and Miami heat wings. You used to have the best wings in town, please bring those great flavors back.

  The owners are absolutely amazing and the food was the best "bar" food I have ever had. Definitely order the Salmon Dip...just the right amount of spicy 😋 I gave 5 stars for service but our waitress was really sweet but really new and could not handle the big table she was given and our table for 2, but the rest of staff helped to make sure our service was still great.

  Taylor the bartender also served out party of 3. This is 4th time dining there, first review. Fabulous service: prompt, friendly, attentive. Food was good, as it has been each time. Prices are reasonable. Dirty blue cheese martinis were outstanding. Locally owned, which is a big plus. Wish they still got steaks from Oink & Moo, not Sysco...but it was fine. Meatloaf, fish 'n Chips, veggies, all yummy. Parking is far easier than downtown. Many locals now regulars. I wouldn't hesitate to send friends and family....and have. Enjoy.

  Food was awful. I had to order a few things off the menu because the server kept telling us they didnt have this or that. I ended up with my third choice, the nachos, what a travesty. How does a place that looks so good and have such good servers make such garbage. My family's food was bad too. We are not picky either but dang, were we just part of some sort of social experiment? There aren't a ton of options around this area but definitely skip this one unless you are only getting a beer.
