Yep, I'm a fan. In fact, I'm such a fan that I made it here twice in one week. I came back the second time before I'd had a chance to review my first visit.
This place is like therapy for me. It just feels wrong to sweep your peanut shells onto the ground. It's quite liberating. I don't normally go to places that "crunch" when you walk around. The peanuts are free & are in little buckets on the tables & bar.
There are tv's everywhere! They're usually playing sports.
I haven't been out on the patio yet. I'm not a smoker. From what I've seen it looks like a nice patio.
-- First time I was here was on a Mon. The place was pretty dead, except for the bar. Can be kind of hard to get seats at the bar because of how small it is.
Tim was working & Autumn was training. Very nice people. Tim's quite the comedian at times. He's good at his job. I asked for a drink recommendation. He asked what flavors I like. I told him I like fruity but not overly sweet. He recommended a drink to me that was very similar to what I've ordered before. His was great though. He had me pegged, spot on.
Only thing that was bummer is MGD is NOT a drink special on Mon. That's a misprint :(
-- The second time was very different. Came in on Fri around 8-9ish. Got a booth & ordered food.
I had the Seafood Pasta which was a special for $12.99 if I remember correctly. Olive Garden has a dish that's similar (& usually better). It wasn't humongous. I managed to finish it all & not feel stuffed. The seafood part was delicious. The shrimp, mussels, clams were all tasty. There was one clam that didn't open. Why was it put on my plate? The sauce was lacking though. It was some kind of oily white wine sauce. Could have used more of it on my plate. It just needed more oomph to it. Still not a bad dish, but I've had better. Their strawberry lemonade wasn't too bad. A little watered down though.
There was live music. Fun :) The first band was good. They had a mandolin. Insta-points! They played a Bravery cover & did a good job. More points! The second bad (oops, I accidentally typed "bad". Freudian slip?) was meh. Too loud. Too older-gentlemen-trying-to-hold-onto-their-youth-by-being-in-a-garage-band. We left.
Last notes...
Our server was really nice. She joked around with us a little. I liked her :)
Also, the bathrooms are always pretty nice.
