    Pricey for what we ordered, but food was good. White chili ordered as an appetizer and split with my wife and was very good. Mac's smash burgers are juicier and on softer potato buns.

    As always, the food was delicious and we had a good time. Our server, Olivia, did an exceptional job. She was courteous, friendly, and we enjoyed talking to her.

    My wife and I second time eating here. Fabulous place food is fantastic and the staff is wonderful. Today we only had the Bavarian pretzel bites and they were out of this world. Great. Beer Cheese was the best I’ve ever had. We look forward to coming back many times. Beer was ice cold too!

    The orginal review is months old. I had increased to 2 stars this past week. But after the owners response i lowered by to a 1 star. What a smoe. I have eaten here on several occasions and the food was good however on my way back from Richmond on a weekday. I ordered 5 chicken sandwiches and asked for TOL and beer ranch and garlic dressings for all 5 to go. What I received were 5 burnt (they were black) dried out chicken sandwiches. 1 slice of tomato, 1 small lettuce leaf and 1 small slice of onion. And 2 beer ranch and 1 garlic sauces. I laughed my butt off of how screwed up this.
    I can't believe they would serve this.
    I live too far away to go back.

    I ended up throwing my sandwich away less than halfway thru since no amount of hidden valley ranch would fix this over cooked dried out monstrosity. Even the buns were burnt as were the potatoe wedges.
    Which is a crime.

    I should have noticed something was wrong when this place is usually packed. There was one customer in the place. I'm just wondering if the regular cook was sick and they found someone off the street that googled how to deep fry. Or maybe it's how it is on a week day and the regular customers know that and avoid it like the plaque.

    What is really upsetting is I gave a 20% tip. Which is way too much for the lack of competent service I received.

    Lesson learned don't order take out over the phone here. Sit down and order. That way if you get what I got you can pay for your drinks and walk out.
