Tami EstradaMay 10, 2013Awesome service, the food never disappoints, and even spectacular choices of beer grace their menu! Recommend any of their burgers, esp the infamous Pork Belly sandwich!

Sarah DoyleMay 27, 2015A Maui Bikini Blonde Lager wth their house burger The Coyote and a side of Fithy Fries. the street tacos rock, too. Food is seasonal so the menu changes (which is nice!) And really good beer on tap.Upvote1Downvote
MarciMarch 5, 2016The coffee & donuts are amazing. Always different. It's coffee ice cream. The smutty fries are delish. The pumpkin appetizer was disgusting. It should be removed.

Audrey AbeytaSeptember 27, 2013Kind of a bummer things start winding down around 10 pm. Great place. Friendly, helpful staff and good food. Especially the Bacon Fat Popcorn and the Brussels Sprouts.UpvoteDownvote
TSP is a staple for me, but last week we came with a party of 10 (most from out of town) and were seated in the "events room" (the basement) by ourselves. Super awkward and made for a bad experience.UpvoteDownvote
So many great appetizer selections!! The beer tap list has top notch options!!

KevinAugust 29, 2015The Pig 2.2 is the best burger I've ever had. Period. And their special ketchup is amazing too.

Sarah FDecember 15, 2017Not quite like it used to be. Popcorn was on special that day, but it wasn’t like we remembered. The Mac and cheese was good but was missing all the “crunchy” ingredients listed on the menu...UpvoteDownvote

Mariangela RiveraJanuary 23, 2016Burgers and beers are great but don't order the steak is way too expensive for what you get. I mean is around 70 dlls and it is big enough for 3 people but is not worth it. Service is good.UpvoteDownvote
