About this venue
Inspired by their grandparent’s 1950’s cellar bar, the Maroulakos brothers tip their hat to that great era of home entertaining. The bar & dining room capture the essence of the era with a fun, modern twist along with a seasonal Backyard Garden. The food menu features classic American bar fare, comforting entrees & (thin) crust pies - with a focus on local and seasonal ingredients. The beverage program features plays on classic Cocktails, including Gus’ favorite, Last Word - complete with his unique twist, 16 draft beers & wine focused on a mix of domestic and international offerings.
