Love everything about this place. Our server, Sadie was attentive and friendly.

We ordered nachos and a burger. The size of the delicious nachos were so large we couldn't even eat the burger! Got a to go box. Even that was delicious after hours later.

We really enjoyed ourselves on the patio and we'll come back if ever in the area again.

Fries became chewy as they cooled off. Tenderloin and onion rings were great!

Surprisingly great place. One of my favorite places to grab a drink on the patio and has an outdoor bar.

Onion rings came with no plates to share, and one single napkin among the three of us. I had the Pelican burger. It was the messiest, sloppy burger served in a plastic basket lined with a piece of paper. I had to use a fork to eat it. By the end it looked like I probably ate some of that paper. My beverage was a Long Island Iced Tea which was among the worst I’ve ever had.

My wife has the sloppy joe lunch. Two sandwichs but not too big. Plenty of fries I had their version of the Philly cheese steak sandwich with fries. Both were good.
Sadie, our server, is actually from the Omaha area. We had a good conversation about that coincidence. She did a fine job of answering our questions.
Good experience. We would go back

We had been at this restaurant when it was Jesse’s Embers and later Irina’s. Loved it. After that, nothing came close until we visited The Pelican Post this evening. Great service from Iralee, terrific food, a surprisingly great drink “Tickle Me Pickle” and a great atmosphere. Met the owner and manager who were extremely personable. We ABSOLUTELY will come back; we found “our place “!

Food takes a long time to come out. Took about 30 minutes for wings. I'm glad we didn't get any drinks, probably would have been here forever. Food is meh for the price.

Check your bill. Tend to ring things up as individual items vs. what menu shows. Very slow service

I had the pork tenderloin and mushrooms. The whole thing was excellent! The fries were really good, too. Staff was quick and friendly.
