The food was great and I like the atmosphere! Good decor, good scene. The drinks were tasty and fairly priced. The meal we got (the Bacon Cheeseburger) was huge and flavored well. Loved the tots! Would definitely visit again!

Two vegetarians here. Awesome, versatile menu for us. I don't follow their music but it's awesome to go anyway for the food. Waitress was very attentive. A quirky cool place.

A year ago I made the pilgrimage to this fine eatery and was not disappointed. I still have dreams and visions of the BBQ sandwich. As much of a fan of GWAR as I am, this might be the finest thing that bears their name.
