Went there on Veterans Day for free entree. Was pleasantly surprised that ALL entrees were free for vets and not a limited menu. Got a filet mignon cooked to perfection. Normally $48…excellent service… Thanks Tim Mcloones. 👍

Our request for a window table was lovely. Our server was attentive and the food was good. After dinner we went over to the high top tables to enjoy the Saturday night entertainment. Our server was good. We had drinks and I ordered a decaf coffee. I have never in my life had such horrible BITTER coffee. Instant would have been better. I never finished my first cup, thought maybe it was the last cup of the pot, I asked for another cup from a fresh pot. Needless to say, it was just as BITTER. That taste lingered for 2 days.
