Pretzel bites were good, service was slow, burger and fries were highly disappointing but not disgusting

Tried Whiskey River for the first time last night. I want to preface this by saying that I called last week and asked if they could accommodate a party of 12-15 the next Monday. The girl who answered (i think it was Lacey but im not 100% sure) was very sweet and said they could forsure do that. I told her it was for my daughter's 21st and she even told me she gets a free shot. Over the weekend more people decided to join us. So Monday morning I called back and asked if the could accommodate 25. I also told her we were willing to sit on the patio to make it easier. She said it was no problem and that she would let the night staff know. Lacey was very sweet and professional! On to my review. Our party showed up between 530 and 6 in increments. I was late (I always am lol) and found out our server was Leann (spelling?) She was very sweet and ran her bitt off all night. We are a demanding but kind group so I give her props. Also because we were on the patio there were flies and a lot of the no-see-um bugs. Absolutely, nothing that they could have done about the no-see-ums, but she apologized at the end of our meal anyways. So I thought that was very thoughtful of her. They did have fans to help (it didn't no offense) so I would suggest maybe the fire pits or the tiki heaters to help stave them off. (They are attracted to Co2 and moisture) Not sure if it would work but it's worth a shot :) The food took a little bit for some (we had 25 people order in a 10 min period I am NOT complaining at all) but was hot and fresh (definitely not warmer hot) when it came out. So of the dishes we tried: Wings - Delicious. Flavor and sauce was so good. Dill Pickle Cheese Curds - huge serving. Just the right amount of pickle flavor. Fajita Salad - huge portion of steak well made Whiskey Burger - good flavor. A little too well done but still good Chicken Tenders - flavorful and seemed to be the hand breaded type. Pulled Pork Nachos - Huge portion. Good mix of toppings. Lots of meat. Steak - Cooked to perfection and delicious Chicken Sandwich - Huge. Crispy buy not too. Good flavor. OVERALL 9.5/10 Will definitely be back

The waitress was very friendly and attentive. I had the pork tenderloin and it was very dry with no real flavor.

Although many of our dishes were good the buffalo chicken wrap was not good and the fries were like refrigerator cold. The wontons were clearly frozen and overcooked, not very good at all. The service though was the worst! Shea was our server and she forgot to get us drinks, bring boxes or the check and all around just not good service. All in all this will be a skip place for a while.

I’m just posting in hopes management might change one thing. I’m not sure if it’s the oil you guys use or if the oil needs to be changed in the fryer, but every time we have ordered chicken tenders or chicken sandwich, the breading taste so bad. The oil either needs to be changed more often or the type of oil you use gives it a bad taste?? But this has been every time we’ve had anything fried chicken. otherwise, food is good and atmosphere is great.

Great small town restaurant/bar

Randy Reece

Who cares about the atmosphere and lighting. At the end of day it's did you get what you paid for. It's $13-15 for a burger, $3 for a side, $3 for a soda. Just not worth it to me.

Food was great, service was excellent.

Andrea Hanson

Top notch!!! Best kept secret in Palo. Salad dressings and croutons home made vs that stuff in the big tubs the chains serve and water down. Food is always fantastic and so is the service.

Don’t go for all you can eat fish. Very expensive, and you’ll wait a long time to get more. If you even do at all. Waitress didn’t seem to care either.
