Just bar food
Posted by davel4 | Mar 25, 2013 | Mark as Inappropriate

Perfectly fine so long as you don't go in expecting anything more than standard bar fare. Pleasant enough place and though reasonably busy when we were there, servers were quite friendly. Food? Eh, not so good. White pizza just a step above english muffin in a toaster oven, short ribs ragu not bad but less than warm when served, as were the over salted fries.
