Just had the Best French dip sandwich I have ever had! Amazing flavor, smelled and tasted fantastic! This place is on point and is one of my favorites places to visit! Always has something great going on here. Live music, great drinks, friendly staff and excellent food! Just went back again for the Special Meatball sub they make! Recommend by the manager Paul, it has to be the best meatball sub I have had! Great job guys. Definitely turning into my favorite place to stop and eat!

Perfect no frills bar and grill. Don't miss the in-house made Taquitos, with just a hint of green hatch chilli. Wine cooked burgers and prime rib dip were also highlights. Super appreciate that the green hatch was grilled prior to being put on the burger. Authentically delicious!

My husband and I went on a snowy Friday night and sat in front of the indoor stage. The live music from Stone Country was excellent - they were so entertaining and interactive with the crowd and each other. For dinner, we shared the prime rib dip and Hawaiian burger - both amazing and it was fun to watch the small dance floor fill up with locals and visitors - showing off their skills and having a great time. It was fun and I’ll definitely be back for the outdoor concert series.

This was my first visit here. My gal-pal told me I would really like this place... She was right! I drove up from Tucson for the Memorial weekend to visit the Pine country... I highly recommend this establishment for grown up fun with live music in the evenings, and family fun during the day also with live music on the weekends... I don't know what this place is like during the week, but I'm sure its a popular spot.

This restaurant has three outdoor levels of seating. There are two bars, one indoor and one outdoor. The indoor area is a decent size with a stage for music and a dance floor. The outdoor area also has a stage and dance floor. The service is top-notch, and the food is decent, with regular bar food.

We thoroughly enjoy our day, food and our own fun playing the jute box with a dance! Mini Tacos and Turkey burger were excellent! They have any drink you need and food on menu. Great outside seating and concert area. Highly recommend. Frank, bartender was great too! We will certainly be back!
