Nice spot with a cozy industrial feel. The fireplace is a nice touch. Good selection of bourbons and craft beers.

The Smitty burger is a classic for a reason. Juicy patty, simple toppings, just a solid, no-frills burger that really hits the spot. Exactly what I was craving.

The staff was so kind to my kids. They brought extra napkins without being asked and even gave them little stickers. It felt like a genuine welcome, not just a tourist transaction.

Bang bang shrimp came out super fast. Good for a quick lunch. Bread and oil were tasty. Coconut shrimp was solid too. Fish was just okay, a bit lukewarm. Gets the job done when you&#39;re in a rush.

The space is definitely cozy, but the food is the real star. I got the pasta special and the portion was huge - easily enough for two meals. For the price, you really can&#39;t beat that kind of value.

The egg pierogi brunch was huge. A glass of crisp white wine was the perfect pairing for those rich, perfectly cooked dumplings.

Been coming here for years, and the food is always just right. That old-school dining room vibe is something you don&#39;t find much anymore. It&#39;s why this place has lasted.

Weekend wait was long, but the food was worth it. Loved how fresh the ingredients tasted in my salad. The greens were crisp, and the tomatoes actually had flavor. Not a quick bite, but a nice spot when you have time.

Service was prompt and friendly. The staff knew the menu well, which was helpful for my gluten-free needs. A solid experience overall.

Love the new renovations here. The space feels so much brighter and more open now, which really makes a difference for a morning meal. Just a nice, clean spot to start the day.

Been coming here for years, and that back patio is still my favorite spot. It&rsquo;s just a nice, quiet space to unwind. The staff is always friendly, which helps. A solid choice for a relaxed meal.

The Ubie cocktail was a nice surprise, floral with a citrus kick. Abby and Amara were really on top of things, super attentive. They knew the menu well and had good suggestions.

Been coming here for years. Their hot dogs are the real deal. Toppings bar is loaded, you can really pile it on. Always get the same thing, never disappoints.

Todd was so attentive, checking in just the right amount. He knew the menu well and helped me pick a salad with really fresh, crisp greens. The ingredients tasted high quality. Made for a relaxed lunch.

Been coming here for years. The staff is always friendly, they know the menu well. Our server had a good suggestion for the special. They even quietly brought a bowl of water for my service dog without interrupting his work. That kind of consideration means a lot.

Such a cool spot! Grabbed a few day-old pitas for a steal, and they were still way better than anything from the supermarket. Spent way too long staring at their olive bar trying to decide 😅 A perfect little find.

The half-bottle reds are a nice touch, especially with the scallops.
