Get the truffle fries!! Stumbled upon Light Horse looking for beer and a patio in old town, and have already been back within a week because of the food and the vibes! Food: TRUFFLE FRIES ! Will not disappoint! I ordered both times.
Also the smoked wings are great, but the ranch and blue cheese steal the show! Homemade in house!! I could drink it! Enjoyed the chicken sandwich and surf and turf kabobs as well! Vibe: Outdoor patio is perfect for the summer weather! Second time I went it was raining so I sat at the bar and still enjoyed the atmosphere.
Not too loud, laid back! Service: shoutout to Sean and Kirk! Great service both at the bar and outside! See you guys soon!

Excellent restaurant.
I just happened to wonder by and decided to go in for dinner.
It was great and everyone in my party thought so too.
The waiter was right on top of things and dinner came quickly.
The restroom was clean.
I would definitely go back.

Owner response

Thank you, Bryan.
We are glad to hear your “shot in the dark” paid off!!! Old Town is littered with so many great restaurants, we truly appreciate you and your party giving us the opportunity to serve you.

This place has a cool tavern vibe with some new added feel.
The food was great.
We had the tacos and wings.
The ahi tacos had a nice handmade tortilla, creamy and crunchy slaw and perfect avocado and tuna.
The wings were well dressed and seasoned.
The server seemed a little overwhelmed but handled it well.
