I went to eat here twice. First time, the food was solid, nothing special, and the service was pretty good. It's clear they are making their margins on food cost.
The second time I was extremely disappointed. A member of my table was charged $2.50 for ice. That's right, ordered a drink on the rocks and got charged $2.50 for the ice. At that price I would expect Crystal clear spheres, or something along those lines. Not simple ice dispenser ice. Needless to say, we will not be dining there again despite decent food and good service.
If you choose to eat there. Make sure you get an itemized receipt. There might be a water charge...

It is rare to be genuinely impressed with the quality of to-go food at a sports bar/gastro pub. This meal was fantastic!
Buffalo chicken Rangoon = fire! Amazing flavor/texture. Was perfect.
My wife had the pork tenderloin sandwich with macaroni (& cheese) and loved it.
My main was the surf and turf rice bowl and I have to say it is the best rice bowl I’ve had in a very long time, even from places much more expensive. No joke - this place exceeded all expectations and the food was perfect, from flavors to textures, the unique blends weren’t over the top, and were perfectly executed. Seriously, amazing food. Nice staff up front too and the place inside looks incredibly nice. Will be back to eat in when I have more time.

I ordered a $18 baked Mac n cheese entree that was supposed to be baked with a breadcrumb crust. It was a small portion that looked like a side dish. it wasn't baked or had any breadcrumbs on it. The waitress even argued saying it didn't come that way even though the menu said otherwise. I ended up ordering something else. After over an hour finally got my food. By that time the rest of my party was finished. So I took it to go. So now I get to enjoy my soggy bread snadwhich and fries nuked in the microwave at home. They really no how to ruin your day

As others have pointed out, the only downfall for this restaurant is the noise; the music is turned up incredibly loudly at dinner, and you can't really hear anything (you'll be yelling into the waitresses poor ear for her to be able to hear your order). However, the food is marvelous; they have one of the best Ahi Tuna sandwiches I have eaten in Iowa, and their fries are delicious. We usually sit on the rooftop or outside to get away from the noise as much as we can.

Great service and environment but the food was mediocre at best. Looked and sounded amazing on menu but actual dish wasn't good. Maybe they need to simplify their menu and just be what they are, a sports bar.

Always a great place to meet up with friends in WDM. Food always good, drinks not bad either. If you are wanting to watch (any) a game or about anything sports wise, they will have it on somewhere in the building.

Pizza was rough, service was great. Maybe Trump's tarrifs has the cost of pizza sauce too high and they had to use it sparingly.
