    stars because I expected more out of this place. Atmosphere is chill, service was outstanding now the food ‍️ fries-basic but no it definitely needed a little more time in the fryer, calamari I wanted to cry- not airy light batter this was sad!!! The seafood pasta.... I didn’t see sauce, lack in flavor a very disappointed dish, biscuit save yourself the trouble go to red lobster instead, chicken tenders-that thing was so thin I didn’t even know what to call it-not a tender, the burger I didn’t try but I was told it was good so that saved the day. Dessert.. chocolate cakeWas not tasty I mean they could’ve at least added some fresh whip to that thing. All in all I would give this place a C- and that’s being generous and I will not come back.. this is not my first experience there. If you want some more than just mediocre food go somewhere else!Parking: This is at the mallPlenty of free parking

    Decent food for a decent price. Obviously they strive to be the casual upscale positioning and many of their dishes have the flair of an upscale restaurant. The cracks in the armor show in areas like the quality of the lettuce or the grade of the steak. Yes, the food is put together with care and the best it could be. But with limited freshness and quality of the ingredients, there is a limit.But again, it's all about the overall package. You have good, lively atmosphere with good brews, cocktails. And overall your party will have a good time.Parking: Right next to the parking at Hillsdale Mall.

    Fantastic time! We arrived at pm on a Friday and the place was empty (see pics). When we walked by around -:, it was packed. Food was delicious (little cold, but we were outside), solid portions, service was super awesome and friendly (every single person), and it was very reasonably priced for this area. dinners, soft drinks, an appetizer, and a dessert came out to $ before tip. Definitely recommend if looking for a fun and affordable date night.

    On the corner of the mall. Very spacious area with indoor and outdoor seating. Happy hour is now until pm. One of the best happy hour menus we have come across. Tried several items my favorite being the Buffalo cauliflower bites and the Deviled Eggs. The sammon sandwich was nice in size and fulfilling. The meatball was dry and bland. Ordered the Rasberry martini and the Old fashion and of course a few Side Cars. The house happy hour drinks are artful and hit the spot. We will return. It does start to fill up fast around pm. I say check it out.
