The service was fast, the food was outstanding and the ambiance was everything you could want from a sit down restaurant. Their Monsterella Stick was the showstopper of the night and their sandwiches could not be anymore flavorful. Will definitely be back!

Their special mozzarella log was tasty and massive, but really needed more sauce than what it came with. More than enough for four people. Way bigger than it needs to be but at least it was good mozzarella. Would have been nice to have also come with a basil oriented sauce too but the little bit of tomato sauce it sat on was certainly decent. Wedge salad was excellent. Most salads I have had here are really good. The fries that came with the prime rib melt were excellent although a bit over salted for my taste. Sandwich was very tasty and large albeit a little bit messy with the internal horseradish sauce. Very good though. However my eye was caught by the massive burger and gargantuan ‘ crabby patty’ sandwiches going to other tables. Will return to try those the next time and hopefully will not have eaten anything substantial all day so I can properly tackle those. Beer selection has definitely improved with several great choice but not impressed with the cheap wines at overly high prices. Server was extremely pleasant and patient and had a nice sense of humor. I’ve had desserts here previously and those were excellent. Overall a good experience and I definitely will return to try more items.
