It is normally delicious with a great beer selection and some really good specials. There current special is a Maine lobster for $9.99. Not only was it cheap, it was delicious as well. I hope this one lasts for awhile. We went with Michelle and Michael to celebrate a successful tie between Nadia and Nitro. Enjoy the fun video and for you locals, check it out.

He responded in an odd voice, “Five adults and two high schoolers????”
My mom is dying. Having raised a boy she thinks this is beyond funny. She is picturing us warning him about these two monsterous high schoolers that are going to clean them out. I can’t imagine what was going through his mind.
