You cook your own steak! T.V.s everywhere and a good bar menu. We go here quite often with out-of-town guests to give them a great experience. Try the wings and when you're done eating...take the kids down the street to the Rock House for ice-cream!

They started out with a food truck and grew from there. The menu is small but the flavor is big. Awesome bar. The music is loud but it is a nice atmosphere.
