Walked into the cool, dimly lit interior for lunch and immediately felt relaxed and at home. High painted ceilings, warm earthy tones, large expressive art, that beautiful onyx bar; our kind of place.
We ordered from the lunch specials with the hope that the food would at least match the atmosphere and we were definitely not disappointed. His nicely flavored grilled orange chicken quickly disappeared. My santiago beef was surprisingly tender - the peppers offered more resistance - and mixed wonderfully with the slightly vinegary 'salsa' served on the side. Both specials had more than enough food for a full dinner at an easy lunch time price.
Service was efficient, attentive, and unobtrusive which made for a quietly enjoyable leisurely meal, a nice change from the more raucous restaurants we tend to haunt on the weekends. Is it a 5 star? No, but it shines as what it is; a cozy, comfy neighborhood cafe pub.
If only this gem wasn't so far up in Addison that the cost of car juice eats up the savings on good food, served cheap, in comfortable surroundings. We'll be back, just sadly not as often as if we lived around the corner.

One of the rare places in the Addison area that I can actually tolerate. But for all practical purposes, I actually like this place. I really like it because they serve their full menu up until 2AM. Most of the time I’ll stick to their jerk seasoned chicken strips, and occasionally I’ll just stick to their seasoned waffle fries. Either way you can’t go wrong, so long as you like the jerk seasoning. Some people think it has a little kick, but I don’t think it’s that bad. One of my friends just loves their grouper sandwich, and always seems to kick himself in the shin when he veers off the beaten path and tries something else. Drink prices are reasonable and won’t break the bank either. Sometimes it can get a little loud, but for the most part you can hear everyone at your table. They also have a dart board in the back and an alright selection of beer. On a related bar-note, it tends to get a little smokey, but for the most part if you’re hitting this place up at 1am, chances are you’re coming from some other smoke-laden venue in the Addison area. Give this place a chance if you’re in that area and have the late night munchies! Otherwise known as "I’m drunk and need to sit down for a bit and eat some food to sober up".
