Kenneth MaoJanuary 23, 2014$10 bottomless mimosas and bloody mary's on the weekend. You can't go wrong. Skip the huevos racheros though. Lobster grilled cheese is pretty darn good.
Not sure why there are so many negative reviews. We have always had good food and service here. The wings are good, and... Original Sin on tap!
ECapDecember 5, 2012Whatever the beer is on tap that has an apple and snake on the tap bar is awesome! Like having cider.
Brendan LenehanOctober 8, 2013Apparently checking in while riding the Metro North was the smartest thing to do after reading the reviews below. Bummer for Darien, it is a nice little town.
Great selection of beers on tap. Location (across Darien train station) is ideal for commuters. Food is average but not a culinary adventure.
Mac and cheese is pretty good and the tap selection is impressive.
Jim CJune 9, 2013Over-priced, slow service, too loud and just " ok" food. Ask for seating in the back or outside by the fire pit.
With warm weather on the way, spend some time on the patio with a cold drink and good friends.
Emily YApril 9, 2013Been here maybe seven times in the last 6 months. Service and food have gotten progressively worse. Why do the managers ask people about their dining experience when obviously they don't care.
Courtney Burke MaronAugust 25, 2012Service was pretty terrible. Food took FOREVER, nothing was prepared as ordered and we had to send back two entrees. So loud we could barely have a conversation. It's too bad, had been wanting to try
Eric RichmondMarch 31, 2013As good as the food is here, skip the Easter brunch. Not at all up to their normal standards
Jaaini BFebruary 9, 2012Wait till they've ironed out the kinks. Couple of mishaps with food timing and overcharge on bill. Try to ignore young manager socializing with buddies at table while chaos ensued around him.
Anne GoodnowSeptember 30, 2012In my experience. service and food quality on a downhill slide for the last 6 months. I won't be going back.
tracey reckerFebruary 26, 2012Wait till they r open longer. Food is ok at best. Service is also ok.. Just come to drink till they r open for a bit longer...
Taryn GreenbergJanuary 4, 2013all time low: long wait, semi-pushy server, greasy food...the "meatloaf" looked and tasted like rubber...totally overpriced to boot, it's a real shame
💋Priceless Memories💋April 13, 2012Don't waste your time there - bad food, poor service, worst customers - sadly they've been voted poorly on all of the above already
