Food was great. Nice atmosphere. Very convenient if staying at DeSoto Hotel. Was part of a room plan for DeSoto hotel, so everything was free. Service was slow. If not in a hurry, great place.

Ate there 5/18/13 for lunch. My girlfriend and I shared both a pulled pork and beef brisket sandwich. They were both moist,tender, and yummy! I'm assuming they recently changed their menu because checking it out on the web I don't see either listed. First time eating here, but will definitely return. Service was good also.

We sat in the bar, which was nice. There was another seating area, as well as some outdoor seating. The food was good, although a little pricey.

We all had the Ruben, great rye bread and corned beef. Did vary the side with garlic fries, sweet potato fries and potato salad, all good. The atmosphere in the back room was peaceful after a long day and the young lady serving us was super. Front by bar is noisier. We stopped in the lobby and the desk clerk... More

I ordered a club sandwich that was way too much for one meal...if your hungry and want atmosphere as well-this is the place. Service with a smile and affordable upscale dining.

Had an early dinner /late lunch. The food was ok. Nothing special , but not horrible either. My husband was ok with it because there were sports on the TV. I had some kind of fish sandwich and I think he had a turkey burger
