On 3/8/2025 julie rinker had this to say:
I've been here a few times for live music. There are a lot of seats and tables. However, you will want to get there early to get one. There's a nice-sized dance floor and clean restrooms. The bar atea can get quite busy, so be prepared to wait in line. Check out their live music schedule and go dance your socks off! :)

On 3/5/2025 Chris Belcher had this to say:
It is a bar, not a restaurant. Free popcorn. Ordered a frozen pizza that was great but still a frozen pizza. Drinks were reasonably priced.
