We were in the area and loved the look of the building. We stopped in to find karaoke night going on, so we got some drinks and food and had a great night! Various singers and styles did amazingly well and food was super. My wife loved the drinks I drove We will be back!!!

A former church is just the right size for an evening of dinner, brews, and music. In the warm weather times, an outdoor patio and stage fits the bill. Be aware that some acts are so popular that a reservation/ticket is required.

I love this place. It is truly a hidden gem. Family friendly, amazing food and staff. All food is truly made to order. (Please rember that. It does add some wait time) So cozy and yummy I can't recommend this place enough

The food is great. Fresh and homemade goodness. The drinks are delicious too. Always fun to be able to drink in a church. They have live music nights but be sure to get your tickets early as they sell out. There is patio seating as well.

Some of the best Italian food, but also finally tried their burgers and they are phenomenal! Also don’t get me started with their deserts!! I’d give a 10/10

What a fun night out. Great food with a wonderful server that was able to recommend a drink for me as I was stuck. Fresh fast food delivery and a great appetizer. We were able to bring out son before 9pm. Recommend trying somthing out of your normal comfort while your here and enjoy the night!

Went here for the first time last night. Got there an hour early to accommodate the stated wait time. The food, service, and music were all a treat. We loved our evening out and will definitely be back. Thanks so much!
