This is a must-go! The food is so good, every time (buffalo shrimp and Julia’s ta-tots are so delicious). Bar and wait staff are always so great. Wednesday’s they have Singo. Family friendly, always with a cozy area for kids with toys/books. No pool table but they do have a dart board, arcade games and slots.

Seven friends met for lunch. Wow, great lunch specials! Kimmett (sp?) was our server and she was very attentive and friendly. They have a platform/stage and saw that kids could play board games and read books there while the adults talked. We saw signs for live music and audience-type games that use the stage at night. Fun! We’ll have to check that out some time. The men in our group particularly liked all the tv screens so they could keep an eye on their team:) I also noticed arcade/skill games on the walls and a slot machine section in the back so this place definitely caters to any family gatherings so teens and your Uncle Jimmy would have fun here.
