Business Lunch Power Players
A high-volume Northwoods-style supper club where wings are a true table-starter, landing classic Buffalo flavor with the kind of steadiness you expect from a long-running neighborhood anchor. It’s best for groups: start with wings and curds, then pivot into hearty mains while the lodge-like room carries the night.
