Great local place, cash only. Stopped in as I working close by and was exploring the area. Ordered the Mussels and Crab platter….SO DELICIOUS! The drinks are good prices and the bartender was very kind. This was a weekday so it was very relaxed and comfortable. Cant say how a weekend is.

Update – as of 8/5/2023 they are not located at 5322 Chew Ave. They are still located at the original location near the corner of Germantown and Chelten Ave. I dont know why the address is wrong online or why the owner hasn’t fixed it but head to the old spot. Still serving food and good drinks.

The place was not bad there was a nice aura going. The food is a different story… I didn’t like it too much and the music was so loud the cashier f***ed my order up. Buffalo wings were too well done and I think the cakes should’ve been lumped.

I’m giving 3 stars because this place put me on to fried mussels. However they haven’t had them since the first time I tried the dish. It’s hit or miss with the drinks depending on the bartender. The waitress is always sweet and attentive. Atmosphere is cool though, and it’s always clean.

It was my first time here, but my sister and I have during lunch time. It’s a bar technically that offers great food. It was packed and super busy when we came in. For the quality of the food, the prices are great. The macaroni and cheese however is horrible, they really need to upgrade to real baked macaroni and cheese, my sister was very dissappointed with it. We really enjoyed ourselves in the early afternoon there.

Ordered a ribeye medium rare – got a hockey puck for a steak my steak knife couldn’t cut through it -the ENTIRE piece of steak …and $40 or whatever it cost …went in the trash. Charged me $5 for a baked potato and forgot to include it in the bag. I tried to call 3x and no answer so I’m leaving this review instead. Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere – for the price AND the quality. 1* bc the service (when they answered) was good …

Very nice love the atmosphere and the people. Would highly recommend this place for a girls night out. We did have a few inconsistencies with our food order. We had to send it back a few times. But it all worked out in the end
