  This place is doing it right!  
  First one of the last great "Happy Hours"!  Everyday 3-6 with delicious selections from their menu favorites for $5 and $5 Beers and $3 off bottles, cans and wine!  And they've got great list of beers!  
  The service is excellent!  A friendly greeting, smiles and prompt and attentive service!  
  The food- what they do, they do right!  The burger was delicious, the spicy Mac & cheese excellent and the chili nachos hit the spot!  It may be a simple menu but what they have on it, is done right!  
  We were impressed!  Even my little asked for a second burger!!!!   This is a kid who is notorious for not eating, we once thought she was going to be a vegetarian and eats like a bird!    Never have I heard her ask for seconds and even a burger at that!  And we haven't even left and she is asking when can we come back!  So we will be back, that's for sure!

  This place is such a great restaurant. It's definitely a local spot. The layout idea very cute and you can bring in a framed photo of your dog to add to there collections of k9s plastered all over the wall. It's dark in inside which gives it a very homey vibe. They also have outside seating which is great on a nice sunny day.
  
  The food is amazing. I ordered the firecracker burger and it was so good. I must warn you the jalapeño bottle caps are really really spicy. I recommend you get them on the side so you can add as many as you want. I also ordered boneless wings for the table. I really liked the fact that we were able to choose multiple flavors. The icing on the cake was there dessert. I ordered an ice cream cookie sandwich. The cookie was baked fresh and the ice cream was so creamy.
  
  The staff is fast and very friendly. Gale was our server and she is amazing. The restaurant has TVs for sports games. Gale was sweet, took our order fast and always followed up with refills and checking in if we needed anything. She definitely knows her sports which is great because she interacted with the table. It was refreshing that the staff is knowledgeable on the actual sports playing on tv.
  
  Overall this place is very welcoming with awesome food and extra points for having such a great staff.

  A parking lot for a bar/restaurant in Sherman Oaks? Its like a mirage!
  
  Casual, dope beer / sour / wine selection. I personally got a modern times aour, which I had no idea existed so thanks for that.
  
  I got a cheeseburger and fries, had some buffalo wings, all came out pretty fast. *shrug* cant really mess up a burger and wings.
  Staff was great, all very friendly.
  
  The decor was 10/10

  Great selection of beer and personable service.
  My chicken Caesar salad was a lot of leaf lettuce with chunks of chicken on top. It checked off on all ingredient but taste and execution was generic. Plus, parking is always a challenge

  Working in the area and my gf picked the lunch spot. Parking is terrible!!!! Now that the downside is addressed.. the super cozy and very tavern like decor is a break from the norm. Place was super busy but we were seated quickly. One thing I noticed immediately was how low the noise level was. So nice instead of having to yell. I went as healthy as I could and they suggested the ahi tuna sandwich. WOW!! Fresh and delicious!!' My gf had a burger that looked to die for and that is their specialty along with draft beers. Looking for a friendly, quaint, cool and tasty place... give it a try!
