You know now to get the kangaroo, but I implore you to throw the homemade goat cheese on top of it.

Service was Good. But the Kitchen is slow, took over 30mins for our food (Filet Mignon & Fish-&-Chips) to come out. Being there were only 2 other Tables (4 Diners max) in the restaurant.

Decided to give this place a second chance... Unfortunately, the batter on my fish was GUMMY, and I was all around disappointed again. If you do end up here, you're pretty safe with the crostis plate.

The tacos are serious.

Quite disappointed. Warm beer, with half full glasses. Waited so long for our entrees that our waiter asked if we wanted to see a dessert menu (before our entrees arrived). Won't be coming back.

this place is not consistent. Some people got extra bacon. My dish was much smaller compared to others without the extra bacon. Wth. Also not worth the wait
Gina KruzicJanuary 6, 2013
