    Vintage atmosphere within a restored 1892 firehouse. The service was good, nice variety of regional beers, and the Paisano Pasta Chips are the perfect appetizer. Often have live music as well.

    The gyro is awesome. Or the roast beef French dip and definitely try the New Orleans style gumbo so good and for dessert peanut butter pie!!

    Just had a birthday dinner there with 3 generations of my family. We had salads, burgers, pizzas and quesadillas‎. Everyone from the 13 year old to the 87 yer old was happy.

    Some of the finest food on Brown Street. Get the Paisano Pasta Chips and a Greek Chicken Quesadilla. And if you are looking for a tasty beverage. Ask for the Matt's Love. From Matt of course.

    I use to love this place, great environment and also good food, however I was there a few weeks back sitting at the bar and seen a cockroach crawling on the bar. No one did anything about it.

    Was in last week with a party of 11. Our server, Jess, handled our table splendidly - beers were kept coming & food orders were on-the-spot! Great group service...

    Craft beer and draft beer selection is great. Pizza is way better than you'd expect and sandwiches are great!

    After you are done eating, if you are up by the bar, take a look up on the ceiling and reminisce some of your favorite board games!
