Customer Reviews
I ordered a cheese pizza and I thought I was eating a cracker instead. Pizza was paper thin and it had a very thin layer of sauce and a sprinkle of cheese also super overcooked. It was so dry. First time here place was amazing but the pizza was not.
You order from their limited menu on your phone and they text you when your order is ready for you to pick up and bring back to your table. The only service is the one person we saw taking food containers away when you are done. They use a lot of plastic and disposable serveware and the nightly waste is mind boggling in a place this size. The food takes awhile and is not very good nor served hot. Loaded waffle fries came with some dried beef, a little unmelted cheese and very wet cherry peppers and scallions. Not good. The chicken fingers were a bit better as they were warm - not hot - but had a sickly gooey sauce on them. Their prices are high for what you get. I would eat before coming if you are coming for an event. Don’t eat here. The beer options are good but served in plastic cups un
The “large” fry size was laughably little, and cost $10. We paid extra to get their "spicy" version. It’s not spicy, just salty Cajun all over it. You want sauce? Sauce is $2 extra. I haven't been ripped off so badly in a long time; don’t bother with this place.
Was with a party of 4 during a game. The short-rib bowl is the saltiest thing I've ever eaten. The wings were decent with the dry rub. The pretzel was good too but they don't even give you mustard unless you pay extra on top of the huge price tag. Food is really mid for the price. Within a 5 minutes drive you could get way better food for much less. Maybe good for having no other choice and being drunk. The beerhall would be better off doing rotating food trucks or pop ups
Love the thin crust pizza with a great crispy crust. Buffalo chicken were was my fav and the perfect compliment to the top-notch beer selection!
