Excellent food, great staff, fun atmosphere. Reasonable prices, great views The river and the Hills...
Amazing place with the most creative over the top opulent drinks south of Wisconsin! If you want some good pictures and great food headed to the gem. I think you'll notice the polarizing one star reviews are for people who are trying to tank the business for no reason. Sure you'll get your calories for the week with one of their creative drinks but damn is it worth it?
Came in on a Sunday with my friends but ended up having to wait about 45 minutes for a table. We were told that they were short staffed. However, we finally got seated the service was quick, the waitress Kiesha was friendly and the food came out hot. We were mostly there for their famous Bloody Mary's, which did not disappoint. Great spot for unique drinks and view of the river on a sunny day!
Love this restaurant. The staff are always friendly, the food and drinks are delicious. The atmosphere is definitely a more casual environment but that's what makes me love it. I love going on a nice day and sitting outside by the water. They are a small place, so if it's busy it can sometimes take a bit longer. If you love desert, get one of their special shipwreck shakes, they are always delicious and giant
Great choices on unique drinks, food is always perfect. Service has always been excellent. Love this place. It can be busy, but worth the wait.
