Fish and chips was awesome. Service was great. It was very busy and loud but the meal came in 20 minutes. We will go again.

Re-uploading my review after continuous great service. On St Patty's day I came in with my son. The hostess gave us a large booth and even supplied crayons and paper for my son. The food came fast even though the restaurant was very busy and the staff checked on us regularly. Typical of a 3yo my son made quick friends in the booth next to us and we had a joyful experience.

Food is great ad service was awesome. No complaints. But on the loud side considering it's attached to a casino but that might be the atmosphere your looking for

Went to Match tonight. Ordered the pepparoni pizza! I have to say it was really delicious. Our waiter was a awesome young fellow...sorry can't recall his name. He waited on us very well and was very informed about the pizza when I asked. The place does have alot of background noise and music was pretty loud. I seen other food come out and it all looked really good! Prices were pretty decent as well. I would definitely recommend

This was our second visit. We both ordered the burger, adding bacon and cheese, and gravy for the fries. I requested a caeser salad instead of fries. This was the best restaurant salad I've had in a long time! Real pieces of bacon, roasted garlic cloves, excellent croutons (really!), all with a balsamic drizzle. To make the meal even better, it was a really great burger. I have one comment of interest. Up front, on the menu, the burger was very well priced. However, every item we wanted with our burger was an extra charge. Bacon, cheese, salad sub, gravy. It added up in a hurry, having ordered 2 burgers. When food is exceptional, you pay, tip well, and leave with a smile!
