Nicole Dennis ★★★ · 5 months ago“Visited this place last night after the CMA's and what a disappointment. The girls downstairs seating & the girl upstairs who was wearing glasses were so unprofessional & rude.

Jeremy “Jaysuvius” May ★★★★ · 4 months ago“This spot has great live music and good food. I also loved the Ole Red ale. Hit the spot and paired well with my bacon jam smash burger. Also the tots were phenomenal. They seemed homemade style and I had not tried anything like those before. My wife loved the spot and said it was her jam.”
