Great lunch menu, crowded any time after 5 even with the expansion, but always worth the wait!
Steven McdanielJune 29, 2017Good draft list. Lots of local brews. 3 generous tacos extraordinaire! Great specials.
Amanda FApril 19, 2013Amazing food & great atmosphere. Try the Tomato Basil Bisque - it comes with a teensy but AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS grilled cheese sandwich.
Lauren SellJanuary 26, 2014Such a great place! Awesome food and fun atmosphere. The fish tacos and truffle mac are outstanding!
Randy VeeserApril 26, 2016Amazing food. Ask for Terry as a server. He's sweet and doesn't mess things up!!
Cyndy FletcherMay 2, 2014Gotta check out the magic mirror in the ladies restroom..makes you appear thinner
The fire tables are a spectacle. And they burn flesh. I are stoopid for touching them.
Southwestern Crab Salad is great! Dressing on the side.
- This place has come a looooooong way since it was Joker's!
