I honestly cant say enough. Came in they had my husbands favorite beer on tap. We ordered the karaage chicken, Bavarian pretzel , and Caesar salad. We tried a buttered popcorn flavored whiskey, absolutely delicious! Honestly an amazing experience 1010

The vibes are immaculate. We were recommended to go here from a server we had at the Original for brunch and she was telling the truth. The food was DELICIOUS we got the frenchie and the saigon and the cocktails were delish. All the employees were so nice. Would definitely come back
