Food was amazing, drinks were great as well very friendly service I will definitely be coming back to try everything on the menu I had the pizza with the spicy honey and that blew my mind . The steak salad was so good; the steak was tender arugula was fresh and the hibiscus margarita was fantastic

Zara V.

Matilda rocks, our local neighborhood bar with a super friendly staff, good drink selection, and lots of TV's and games for fun. They just built a new outdoor patio for the summer, which is really nice, and the pizzas are delicious. Overall, a great place for a drink and a bite to eat to watch a game, Roxy is the best
