    We enjoyed our nachos! Drinks were awesome… especially the blueberry drink! Burger were large, and tacos were tasty and large portions!

    Need to check each table to ensure it is level. We were in on 3/17 for my bday and we asked to move from a booth because it was so wobbly. Today, we were taken to the same wobbly booth and I asked again for another table. Here is the deal - why did it happen twice - I only ask as I am a partner in CMR and I know the training and standards we set out for all of the restaurants - including RBs. Please ensure the tables and chairs are in good working order before opening.

    Excellent restaurant in a great location. Service was outstanding and food was very good. Atmosphere is very fun but also great for families. We went as a party of 7 with 3 kids and were served very quickly. We’ll go back next time we’re in town for sure!

    Great burgers. The pizza is a little big for lunch! Best to split; server warned us ahead of ordering. Three-way is always great. Friendly service, great atmosphere.
