Wings are very tough about like chewing leather.

Incredibly slow service. When we arrived, the table had been cleaned, but it was very sticky. They cleaned it again, it was better, but still sticky and gross. Waited 45 minutes to put in our food order, although it was not remotely busy. The food was okay, not great.

Nice place, not busy. But, I stood at the bar for at least 5 min. B4 anyone came out to help me.I was standing near the end of the bar, I
saw gnats flying around the garnish container. The rueben was aweful as were the fries. However, the highlight was the gizzards. For now on, IF I ever order from there again it will be a I'd order. I doubt I will ever eat their food again. The sad thing is that someone could steal them blind. No one to notice but patrons drinking at the bar

This place could have a Heavyweight Title Bout against The Station for best wings in town. In fact, do that. I would love to judge!

Ankeny location's food and service has gone way downhill and not revovered since covid. Everything on their menu is $14.99. wierd. Wings were overcooked and served with watered down sauce.

So! I came there, to enjoy the experiences, but because I have dentures, the lady would not sell me in a beer. She did not ask for me to pull them about, and show her , she just shrugged me off! I asked for a manifest manager, but they have me a bar tender! I just won 78s

I haven’t been to a restaurant with live music in a very long time!

Our total for everything we ordered was $69.48 + $15 tip:
• 2 beverages
• Hamburger - kinda disappointing. It’s advertised as “thick & juicy” but the burger was dry in my opinion. ): I will try something else next time.
• Pepper Teriyaki Wings 10 piece —> the wings were crispy, saucy, and were decently sized!
• Philly steak —> My boyfriend really enjoyed his meal. He said that the sandwich had a large blend of different cheeses. He recommends this meal!
• Thunderballs —> a good mix of different flavors. fun to eat & will definitely heat up my leftovers in the air fryer.
I plan to come back in the future to attend bingo and trivia nights!

pros:
- plenty of seating
- many TVs
- free parking lot
- live music
- staff members were so lovely & attentive

cons:
- can be loud, depends on you and what you like!

My daughter and I stopped in Saturday afternoon, a little after 1pm. There was a please seat yourself sign at the entrance. There were hardly any other guests, except a small group in the back.There were several dirty tables as I sat down while my daughter used the facilities. Had a gentleman wearing a blue baseball cap reapetedly walk by me, taking to go containers to the group in the back. Not once did he acknowledge my presence. My daughter returned to our booth, and the same gentleman again walked past repeatedly (5-6 times). Never once acknowledged our presence, he actually avoided eye contact with us. This went on for over 5 minutes. The timer on my phone said 8 minutes. I started it after he ignored me the first time. We were getting ready to leave when, finally, at the 8 minute and 10 second mark, Myriah came over. She was so very friendly. Myriah took our order, and quickly, our food arrived to perfection. The club sandwich and fries were great, and my daughters pasta was so flavorful, and the portions were huge.Myriah came and checked on us frequently throughout our meals. Myriah and the food were the saving grace for this visit. I wanted to give service a 5 star, but due to being ignored for 8 minutes, I can not. All he had to do was greet us and say, "Someone will be right with you."..... I doubt we will be returning or recommending due to one rude server, but that's all it takes is one bad person to ruin the experince.
