Walked in randomly with a buddy. Bartender recommended their old fashion and it was a great blend of bitters that was enjoyable to the last sip. Had their Monday Steak night special and it was good but not mind blowing. The atmosphere was chill and made it easy to have a conversation.

Very low-key casual vibe. Chris and Miracle are very cool individuals. The drinks are very reasonable for the area. They have screens indoors and outdoors.
