Lovely experience! We celebrated my sister’s 21st birthday with our family, and everything was wonderful. The service was truly exceptional. Our server was such a sweetheart and took the time to help my sister navigate the drink menu, making her special day even more memorable.

Always good food and service. We go here before theater at UT HALL-a quick 7-10 minutes away. Happy hour has great choice of food and original drinks. Noise level VERY high and hard to have a conversation at a table for 6. Will be back again, as the food, service and convenience are hard to beat.

Hidden gem. Underrated outdoor dining. Food and service are outstanding. My only complaint is there’s a level below the restaurant where guests from the hotel gather and smoke, so the smoke makes its way up to the patio. It must be THE place to smoke, because almost every time I’ve been here, I’ve smelled cigarette smoke at some point. Not something I enjoy in 2026.

We had an excellent waitress named Bebe. The food was outstanding! Truffle burgers especially. And no one can beat the generous serving of the brownie pie with ice cream! It was enough for 5 of us!
