    The FOOD IS GREAT. But we have tried to place orders on 3 different occasions and CANNOT get anyone to grab our order on the phone. I have addressed this every time and nothing has been done about it. Guy's it only takes one person to man a phone system for orders to go or questions the public may have. You are not understaffed. I hope you can work on this. I feel there is money being loss with the neighborhood you are located in. Thanks

    Frozen espresso martini was so good and refreshing!! Very large space with lots of seating. Outdoor area looks like it would be fun in the evenings when it’s not so hot.

    We've always loved this place:
    1. Family Friendly - they have multiple board game options to bring to your table.
    2. Great space - Previous visits they had a living room like set up with leather couches and coffee table inside. Perfect place to post up with a group that has kids. Or even people who love to lounge. We sat outside this last time and even the long picnic style tables work well for big groups and kiddos.
    2. Huge layout with outdoor and indoor options.
    3. Great beer that gets the job done. I've never had to wait in line too long to get a beer.
    4. Awesome pizza - I've had their pizza before and it was nothing to write home about. I'm super particular about my pizza preferences and this last time I couldn't stop raving about it. Perfectly thin crust with great flavor to where I even finished the end crust (not a usual for me), tomato sauce amount just right, sausage nicely chopped into small pieces, pepperoni where the outside curled up with a nice toast on the edges. What else do you need in a pizza.

    There's nothing I can think of to rate this place any less. Done and done.

    LOVE it here. It’s so huge. You could either be in the middle of all the action, or be off to the side and feel like your group can enjoy themselves. There’s a spot for everyone. We only had a beer, but I think they have food too. There’s both indoor and outdoor seating. Looks like a beautiful place for an event as well. Also, dog friendly in the outside area.

    This venue is huge!! It is so beautiful. We loved the huge doors welcoming our group they were stunning. The courtyard and the inside are very large and open. The bar is cute inside. We had a prearranged breakfast pizza it was pretty tasty.
