Food was meh, but no one at my table could hear each other, even when practically yelling. It was so unnecessarily loud in there.

First time visiting, and will unfortunately be my last. The saving grace is the food. The food was legitimately delicious: recommend the loaded nachos, chicken fingers, steak sandwich and french fries because they were all amazing dishes that were cooked to perfection. However, most other aspects of the meal were subpar. They had a good beer selection, but the cocktails weren't great. I ordered one and had to send it back after me and 6 of my friends tasted it and voted it to be undrinkable (it was the blue one). My friend got a margarita that tasted like the bottled mix from our aunt's basement with half a shot of tequila added. Didn't even salt the rim to balance out the sweet/sour flavor of the mix. The service was hit-or-miss. The server took everybody's food order except for one person; he had to wait until she came back later to order his food. Then his food came out 15 minutes before anyone else's food. Finally, the atmosphere was reminiscent of a local concert with a too-loud sound system, but a band wasn't playing. It was just the music they were piping in. It was difficult to carry a conversation with the person sitting next to me. Strange experience overall, maybe it would be good for takeout. Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly from what I saw. It was incredibly loud; could cause hearing damage in small children
