    40 beers on tap, always changing, & now Abita Brewing Company all-natural draft root beer, too, which you can get as a float with local Arethusa Dairy ice cream.

    Killer beer selection and the best wings I've had (ask for stupidly extra hot ghost pepper sauce if you like actually SPICY wings!)

    If you enjoy a well-crafted cocktail, try an Old Fashioned here. It's a specialty exceeded only by their eclectic American microbrewery selections!

    Avoid being seated upstairs if you can. Have NO idea why it is taking so long for two burgers and a veggie wrap.

    Disappointing atmosphere and an even more disappointing menu. Steer clear of this bomb.

    Ugh. Burned food and service that blames you for not leaving a reservation...even when near-empty. Stay away.

    I stopped her at the suggestion of a friend new to the area. Wasn't impressed by the food or the service. Very disappointing experience.
