Customer Reviews

So I just want to be honest... The managers are absolutely amazing, not all of the bartenders/servers are always paying attention or at times they are more concerned about their phones. However, the establishment has been undergoing management changes and getting things in order. Want a relaxed, fun, chill place to just hangout? This is it.... Great food, great people, great memories to be made. Want to feel like you are in a club scene, keep trucking it down the road... to shawn o brians where you can dance the night away, loud music, again great food, great people, great fun. But for a generally good time and great experience you are at the right place!!
