One of the employees was terribly disrespectful to my wife; in addition to the terrible food they serve, not a pleasant experience
The good. Food quality is terrific. Prices fair. Server attitude also good.
The bad. We came at 750 pm on a Tuesday. Ordered our food at 805. By 830, no food had made it. Only then did server come by to say they have a big group in back and kitchen can't do our food until done making theirs. No mention of this when we ordered. Had we known, we would have left and eaten elsewhere.
Another 20 minutes go by before food finally shows up. At 848. And only happened because we finally spoke with manager. No apology from management and no comp anything to make up. The server genuinely felt bad but out of his control.
So if you are ok that the kitchen can only cook one plate at a time and that management reaction is uncaring, then enjoy. Again the food is good and prices fair. Just bring a lot of patience.
Food was whatever. Definitely overpriced bar food. Burger needs to be made with sliced onion and tomato not diced. Who puts diced tomato on a burger. Service was nice but food was ehh.
Elizabeth is the best. Must go spot in Evanston
Great drinks! Quality of service really depends on your luck though.

Just a drag of an atmosphere. Not a smile to be had between the two rude, sub par bartenders. Food was overpriced, fried frozen and unimpressive. Would not recommend this place.

Great drinks and food. The cheesecurds were a great appetizer. Try the radtler with a shot of vodka-so good! Service staff was pleasant and helpful. Great spot and outdoor seating was a plus. Glad we stopped!

They don’t split bills. Tough look in a college town.

VERY unfriendly place with one bar tender/waitress who is outright hostile towards older men (daddy problem she should leave at home!) Other staff friendly but Manager is oblivious to customers and if you don’t work here, he has NOTHING to say. Very sad establishment that could be SO MUCH MORE with the proper management! Owner is losing money with current two-out-of-four! There is hope, only if owner wakes up!!! Location is PERFECT - just needs happy management who does not tolerate one bartender to ruin environment. She’s the rotten apple in this place!

The blurriest pictures tell the best memories - summer of ‘19 was unlike anything else…
Beach, Brat’s, and beers . Unlike a local hotel that was impacted by crowds****e.
Thank you to Ridgeville!!
