    Outdoor seating and new beer options but the food is so mid. Definitely lots of just cheap easy ingredients. I thought pizza would be different. Happy I went so I don't need to go again.

    Got a burn and blister on my fingers from this place. Safety hazard, super dangerous HOT cast iron skillets. Don't order it. Natural instinct is to touch the skillet handle to move the skillet dish (abnormally long handle - never seen restaurants serve/use these types). Restaurants should not be serving skillets with long handles to customers without protecting the handle. Better yet, get skillets like other places without handles. My friend and I both touched the handle just by natural instinct. Even though the server said he told us to be careful. I did not hear him as the music is loud in this establishment. Really bad customer service recovery (none really). When I brought up it was a safety hazard to serve cast iron skillets with these long handles he told me that's why we tell you to be careful. Worst customer service I've had in a long time. Terrible. Food was basic but you get what you pay for $10 mostly cheap tator tots to fill the skillet. Would never recommend to anyone this place based on this experience. Have never had an experience in a food and beverage establishment where it is a huge safety hazard. Came in to have brunch and left with a burn and blister. You have lots of kids too here on Sunday Brunch days, can't imagine kids accidentally touching the long skillet handles. The biggest turnoff at the end was the customer service. Not hospitable, not friendly even the slightest. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else.

    Had their beer flight, and a hazy IPA. Fav is their wild matter. Greek pizza (good), wings and tater tots (both passable).

    I'll start off by saying the pizza is very good. But there should be any indication that the pizzas are tiny, personal size, about 7-8in. Especially when charging more than a regular size pizza. (14-16in). Any indication on the menu that these pizzas are personal size would be nice. Paying $70 for 3 personal pizzas is absurd anywhere in the world.
