Vicky and George started working in the family's first restaurant as teenagers. Four restaurants later, in 2010, they opened on Lake Anne. Sixteen years on, it's a sports tavern with a dining room, or a dining room with a sports tavern, depending on which door you use.

“We both started working in our first restaurant when we were teenagers and learned all aspects of the business. We feel very comfortable doing what we're doing: making our restaurant a place where people can get good food at an affordable price.”
