"I've been here once and will not return. I was with a work group but with no reimbursement. I wanted to cry when I saw the prices; it was so out of my reach that I ordered the least expensive item on the menu (nothing special, particularly for the price). I also ordered a glass of house cabernet (generally least expensive). When I received my tab, the ONE glass of wine was $15. I told the server there must be a mistake. She said they didn't have house cabernet and so what I was served was $15. I told her she should have told me they did not have a house cabernet; I would never have ordered this. She treated me with disdain and shrugged me off I guess I wasn't good enough [wealthy enough] to warrant honesty and respect from this establishment. Fine; I'm in a different income bracket now and will gladly take my business to establishments with good food that is not ridiculously priced, and with honest, friendly, and respectful service. Any time someone suggests trying this place, I warn them off and we go elsewhere."

"I had a great time here with my girlfriend, sampling delicious tapas and actually (thankfully) saving room for dessert! The inside was definitely loud, which seemed to be addressed by the padded walls, but boy it's still quite loud. We would have loved to sit outside but you definitely need a reservation for that, especially on a Saturday night. We enjoyed the pickled veg dish, the Korean potatoes were *SUBLIME*, the empanadas were dry and underwhelming by comparison to everything else. Our favorite was the squash dish, and the eggplant hummus you really can't go wrong!!! Sipping on thyme lemonade while it's still in season is the move here. For dessert, we loved both the bread pudding and the berry galette!!!! You absolutely must save room for them, as the portions are gargantuan and enough to share for a table of 4 or more. We had coffee service with our dessert, but the coffee was extremely weak and they didn't have a timer on the French press so we just had to guess when it would be ready kinda weird. No alternative dairy to my knowledge so keep that in mind if visiting this place for dessert as well. Overall we had a lovely evening and we'll definitely be back! A great place for a birthday night or anniversary too!"

"My family of 4 had a great time! Staff was super friendly, food was hot and quick, and the atmosphere was great until “Bad Santa” walked in telling everyone to get the F out of his way. This ole boy walked in with a bench seat out of some POS car. While it was completely wrapped in duck tap. Walked over to the bar and sat on two stools. Then harassed/yelled at the awesome staff. The whole time he left all of his junk in an old baby stroller up on the front patio. Made my family and I super uncomfortable. 5/5 stars, but Santa needs to kick rocks…"

"One of the best breweries in the area and a great restaurant to boot. I've been there multiple times and it never disappoints whether it's the food, the fresh beer or the service. BEER: They have something for every taste it's always top-notch. AMBIENCE: Relaxed and casual feel. A small bar area (my only criticism and sometimes keeps me from considering it) so if you enjoy the bar and you're there during the busy time it's unlikely you'll find a seat. The restaurant feels small but there's quite a bit of seating both lower and upper levels and in the back. In the front there's a very nice patio which is great to enjoy on a nice day. During the pandemic they were a little rigid but things have relaxed some and it's a much more enjoyable experience. FOOD: Lots of hearty dishes. Rarely disappointed with the quality and taste. SERVICE: Always friendly and attentive. Be aware if you're there during a shift change is the only time I've noticed the service level drop a little. That's a management issue not the servers. VALUE: For us it's a good value. We have a 40 minute drive to get there and we feel it's worth it. Entrees mostly in the $11-$16 range add a few beers, tip and tax and your good to go. Portions are a good size and we often take leftovers home."

"what a wonderful place! They stop sitting about 1-2 hours before they close due to the waiting list. eating is phenomenal and worth it! we have set our name on the list (1.5 hours waiting), then went down to the toy shop and shopping around. the cookies and gravy were the best I ever had from a restaurant. so good that I bought from extra order to go so that I would have it the next day. they are also dog friendly on the terrace and provided water and lend. I would make the hour drive from kc again. highly recommended!"
