A great little bar and food place. The gravy was divine, the fries were perfect, and the fish... oh my god the fish. The fact that the place is so huge and that it's just this little door in the side of a building is amazing. You'd never expect a fully wooded bar! It was awesome.

It was a busy day! But I ordered the lobster roll and found it to be "Okay" The atmosphere was pleasant and we enjoyed ourselves.

The prices are great, and the atmosphere is awesome, especially on weekends when they have live music. They always have specials, so make sure to check the blackboard at the entrance!

Smash burger gets a 8/10, good size but not enough flavor in my opinion. Jalapeño poppers 10/10. Fish and chips 8/10. Substituted the chips with mash. The fish is smaller in size than usual, but I’ll just chalk that up to inflation/shrinkflation. Mash didn’t come with the usual accompaniment of butter. Steak spice wings are always 10/10. Service 10/10, there’s a bit of a wait time during “rush hour”

Our waitress (Christina) was fantastic. What a great personality what a great smile. Her recommendation for the lobster roll and the lobster gilled cheese was spot on, her choice for the Skor cheesecake was again spot on. The restaurant is nice and clean. I highly recommend this place. Ask for Christina and the lobster sandwich without mayo

$5:00 Fish and Chips. Reguardless of the price, this was one of my best meals this trip. I really liked the breaded fish. I prefer it over the battered fish. For its location in a parking garage, this place was very busy, for all the right reasons.
