This was our first time here, and we were very happy.
There was plenty of parking, so, if the lots are full, so are the tables. Speaking of tables, there are some raised cafe-style tables and some regular height tables. There's a bar, with bar seating.
The service was awesome. The staff at some places seem to only care about their tables, but there was none of that attitude here - everyone was consistently friendly, and gave the vibe that they just wanted us to be happy with our experience. We were immediately acknowledged when we walked in, and as soon as the host was able, he came over to seat us.
i should have taken a picture of the menu, but forgot, sorry. They were a bit ragged, worn, and sticky (might want to wash your hands after ordering). The menu had more options than i expected, and all of it was unique. My wife and i have some food allergies (not severe), so we needed to make some adjustments. When i asked our server if i could make some substitutions, she quickly answered, "I can do anything! Just tell me what you want, and I'll make it happen!" She carefully made a written note of our allergies, and made suggestions for alterations based on those and some feedback from the kitchen. i was impressed. We ordered the vegan "Happy Cow" - but, with a beef patty instead of a bean patty, so... a sad cow, i guess. Our waitress took everything down, and then suggested that she could make it more like a salad, so there'd be more food and a full plate. Great suggestion - you can see what she created in my pic. My wife ordered some of the stuff on the side, since she's a bit more picky, but she ordered the same thing. The tots are gluten free, but they're deep fried in the same oil as the fries, which have a glutenous coating. That isn't a major issue for us, but it might be for others.
The food tasted amazing. There's literally no way i could possibly have suggested any improvements... the blend of flavors was balanced and exciting for my taste buds.
The atmosphere is very pub-like, as expected. A little noisy, but not bad. i do wish they'd had a regular-height table, since i am disabled, and the higher chairs are both unpadded and harder for me to climb into. They didn't know that, though, and were looking at possibly seating us at a larger table, when i told the host the higher table would be fine. It was just the 2 of us, and a table for 6 or 8 might have cost them some customers, and i wouldn't want to do that to them when i can compromise a little. i didn't mark them down for that.
We visited on a Sunday afternoon. i suspect things might get more pub-like (loud) on a big game day (there are TVs with sports), or later in the day.
All in all, the service and food quality impressed me, and that's not an easy accomplishment.
