I enjoyed myself there because I attended my Best Friends 50th B-Day Celebrating and they Rented Space there for a few Hours. The Staff was great and so was the Atmosphere and I will spread the Word about that Place.

OMG the wings are so good!!! Got the Honey Garlic, and they did not disappoint! Full size, crispy, yet tender, and amazing flavor. Enjoy a game of darts, had hoped pool tables were more suitable. Very nice place. (Went before the evening crowd.)

The bartenders are nice. But, do not keep bar consciousness. You have to wait a long time to have take your drink order. They are too busy laughing among themselves or interacting but their attention is not consistently on the customers wanting to get a drink. But they are very nice.

This is my favorite place to go on Monday after work. It's really mellow and the wings are so good. They have events there and it's a nice place to hang out on the weekends even though it can be kind of crowded. But I like that if you want to be around of crowd you can go on certain days but if you just want to go in and be low-key you can go a happy hour through the week.
