    4th menu since they opened, so reviews are all over the map. We enjoyed the Pork Shank, Prime Rib, and Strongbow Fritters. Good portion sizes, attentive staff. Often live period music, TV in the bar.

    The staff is very friendly and attentive. Good food. Can't wait to try the "Medieval Madness" night... If it's half as good as the old place, it should be great!

    All you can eat Sunday brunch ($14) is great from 10am-2pm! Get there early and enjoy the made to order omelets and hand carved prime rib.

    Beer selection is meticulously researched in order to only have beers that are period appropriate, nice touch!

    There's a new chef, so it's written checking it again. The new menu is fantastic!

    Try the medieval meatloaf! I've never been a big fan of meatloaf but this place nails it!

    1. They charge 2.50 for beer samples but they didn't mention it 2. Small menu, random and unauthentic 3. Weird and kitschy will go back to try the hookah bar or $17 brunch buffet, skip the other meals

    Try something - anything - on the pretzel bun! They are fresh and delicious!

    Kind of rude to make the staff dress up in humiliating outfits when there is a motorcycle in the middle of the restaurant. Not sure how that fits in with the medieval theme, but whatever.

    I am not a meatloaf person but the meatloaf here is divine!
