An exquisite happy hour (3-6) featuring 75 cent spicy Korean duck wings . So good you won't even think about the duck 's weird corkscrew shaped penis.

Melissa Daigle

New menu is fantastic! Happy hour 4-7pm every day! $4 cocktails are my favorite and Purple haze on tap w. other beers for $2.50. Oh and fav. dish by far is the duck filet with pork belly !

Tiran Dagan

The French dip ones with a great beef dip and is delicious! Also agree with other recommendations for the shrimp in a cup (spivey mayo based sauce). I even liked the side of mashed potatoes & gravy .

John Brunelli

Full service bar and so that's wonderful. My medium done burger was closer to rare. The pretzels were more like dry bread sticks . Tomato soup tasted like marinara sauce . Saving grace: full bar .

Scott VanNederynen

Recently changed management so their is a new menu to explore. I like the French 75, or Pimm's cup and the Corned beef and Pastrami sandwich .

Crab cake appetizer is meaty and tasty! Jury still out on the mini shrimp corn dogs . Shrimp and grits dish is delish!

Ariel Chardonnay

Amazing staff !! Friendly waiters and delicious food. The shrimp in a cup poboy is delish. Also Chris was a great server as well .

Jessica Flores

The tomato soup was delicious and the Sloppy Joe was incredibly satisfying. I also enjoyed the planter's punch tiki. I can't imagine not enjoying anything in their menu.

Perfect pig poboy is amazing. the tuna steak special was awesome as well , but not on the menu . Finally, make sure to try the cupcakes - either the lemon , red devil or Apple.

Fried gizzard app and chicken fried steak entree are very good. Perfect pig po-boy also a win. Order a Dixie to wash it all down.

Best chicken fried steak I've ever had...and I'm from Texas. The portion isn't very large but i thought it was just the right amount and didn't make me feel like I was having a coronary!

Jared

The fried chicken sandwich is fantastic!!! So are the fried oysters .

Food was served cold (ft long all beef dog with chili & cheese ). Fries were thin and crispy .It was okay.I'd pass on this meal again though. Awesome customer service, clean rstrms, & ❤ the 40s feel.
