We waited almost 10 minutes after being seated for anyone to acknowledge us. After that, service was great and food was very good.

We have been a regular customer for a long time, but I am sorry to say that the food has not had been as good over the last few times. Tonight, I ordered my burger medium and it came well done. This is not the first time. They also changed their French fries. They are not as good as before. The two items that I still like are the fried chicken sandwich and the grilled cheese. Everything else that I have ordered lately has not been as good as before. We probably will not be eating here as frequently as before.

Watch out for all hidden fees. They also did not honor their happy hour posted prices. Made it very uncomfortable when we asked to change the bill Will probably not go again

Food didn't come out hot, landed up coming out warm. Third time I've eaten here and the first time this had been an issue. They're were 6 of us and all of us had the same experience. We did not have the time to send it back and wait for the orders to come back out. It was moderately busy, so I don't feel like that should be the reason. Not sure if it sat waiting at expo or not. Otherwise it was a great experience as always, the food was delicious, I would recommend the fish tacos, they are phenomenal.

Our server was great— made the meal. Appetizer cheese curds and burger excellent. Pulled pork sandwich good but too spicy and heavy sauce. Great beer selection.

Sheryl did an absolutely OUTSTANDING job, friendly, personable and attentive as our drinks never went below half. Food was good not hot but warm and timing needs work. Be aware they have a 3% credit card fee that you find out about after you pay.
