Huge burger..

Kate O'Connell

Food and service were good and restaurant was super busy on a Friday night, but my husband and I ordered sandwiches: blackened mahi mahi and a burger. My fish was pretty decent, but extremely messy; it should not be advertised as a sandwich when you can't even pick it up without the bun disintegrating and everything falling apart. My husband's burger was extremely inedible. He ordered his burger to be cooked "medium" and it was delivered to him still mooing - to the point where it looked like it was just seared on either side for a few seconds. The burger patty looked completely raw! Definitely won't be back for food anytime soon.

Excellent place to drop in real quick and refuel. The chicken sammich is huge! My crew got burgers and I got the banh mi BBQ pork. It was delicious. The place was super busy and near capacity when we stopped in for an early din din. The food came out as it was ready all hot and steamy. We also got the fried pickles and buffalo tenders. Everything was yummmyyy...if we are in reading again, we will def be hitting this place up. The bar is also really cool, with a bunch of great local beers to choose from.Parking: The parking lot is a bit tight if they are busy, but it's manageable as there is on street parking as well.

Food was good. Service wasn’t so good. Wish they had live entertainment and stayed open later on the weekends.

Staying in Reading for work, so I stopped in for a few drinks and dinner to go last night. The atmosphere feels high class when you walk in, and the small touches like the kitschy water glasses makes it feel welcoming and fun as well. Good conversation and service from the Bartender Scott.The food was FANTASTIC! Portion was huge, clean and well seasoned! Would definitely recommend the Cauliflower Fried Rice with Tofu.

I went here for a networking event and I was so impressed with their food. I’ve lived in town for over 13 years and I had never been to the one Wakefield but I’m so glad I stopped into the one in Reading. Worth it! Food -price -staff! Loved their cauliflower bites.

No value, expensive for what you actually get. Everything is heavily breaded.
