This place ALWAYS takes forever when you’re picking up food. It’s never ready. I do not recommend ordering online EVER!

The interior is seriously outdated. It could stand to have a renovation and led lighting also. I ordered toasted ravioli with marinara. It was more meat than anything. The noise level has been ridiculousI would leave zero stars but that's not possible unfortunately. I do not recommend coming here.

5 stars for a local bar is what it is. Long time establishment in newer hands. Great food and service. Large portions. Wings are great and a great value on Mondays and Thursdays.

I am adding Martins to my rotation for Happy Hour, Breakfast and comfort food eating. I've been twice and both times were winning experiences.This establishment use to be Chico's and about two months ago, switched over to Martins. I cannot speak for what it was like at Chico's, but it must have been good, because several items on the menu are listed as, "Chico's Style". It's good to see that they kept a few of the "favorites" from the previous business.I discovered Martins by their ad in, The Social which is a monthly magazine delivered in my mail promoting local businesses. Wanting to expand my experiences in my new neighborhood, I went to check them out. Lucky for me, my first visit was during Happy Hour and the special pricing for cocktails made my wallet smile.After a couple of cocktails and chatting with other patrons at the bar, I decided to order food. My original intentions were to order either wings or a burger, but the young lady tending bar persuaded me to try the Pork Tenderloin Sandwich. She stated that I would not be disappointed.The menu, describes it as, "Big As Your Face" and they were not lying. When it was delivered to me, everyone at the bar gasped in amazement. They all said, you're not going to be able to eat all of that. They were right, it was f-ing huge. It was not only big in size, but it was also big in flavor. I went with fried over grilled and it the breading was extra crispy. One of my new bar buddies suggested enjoying part of my leftovers with scrambled eggs in the morning and that is just what I did and I still had enough left over for a small sammie for lunch. As a side, I went with the Homemade Potato Chips over the fries. They could have been a little crisper, but they were still a nice change from fries.While dining I noticed they were also open for breakfast and I enjoy a good breakfast out. So a couple days later, I was back. When having breakfast out, especially on the weekend, you've got to have a Bloody Mary. WOW! They make their own mix and it is spicy and the perfect way to start brunch/breakfast. If you go on a Sunday, the Bloody Mary's will be on special.Being raised on a farm, I am a big fan of good ole Biscuits and Gravy. When I go out for breakfast, I always like a half order of B&G when I can. Lucky for me, they offer a Biscuit and Gravy Combo. I enjoyed my half order with two eggs scrambled, a side of bacon and country hashbrowns. It was a hearty breakfast that kept me filled and going through out the day. Again, I am on for crispy potatoes, so I would have liked my h-browns to have been a little crispier. Otherwise, it was a thumbs up.The staff is friendly. It is a true neighborhood diner/dive bar. Even the other patrons are welcoming to other diners and drinkers. It is a true relaxing and welcoming environment.

This place has gone down hill the last few months. I have tried to order online 2 times in the last month around 8p and both times my order was canceled. Tonight i called and they said that the kitchen was closed except for tacos and unbreaded apps. I will not be going there anymore.

This place is great went Thursday after work with a group. Outside seating inside seating a great set up location off a pretty empty road. We'll worth the extra three minutes here.Beer great, cold the bloody mary i had i needed two of them it was so good it was in my top three ever. Took me back to New Orlenas but the food for one the prices holy crap great deals then these portions, flavor looks it had it all and somehow it was all of ours first damn time here! No picture of the fat taco special on Thursday and the fried pork sandwich was good the breading and the whole thing. Also got pictures of some others food and to go boxes were needed.Check out website they have deals on some days and family style dinner on Tuesday evening i think it was.

Honestly a great place, with great food and friendly staff. However their hours as a restaurant are now so inconsistent that I can never eat there anymore. Sometimes kitchen is open till 11 sometimes closes before 8pm.

THE ONION RINGS ARE AMAZING! The chicken strips were delicious. All of their food is really good... And, you get A LOT of it. Everyone at the table took food home The service was great.The atmosphere was okay... But, try not to use their restroom. It is literally plywood walls. No paint, not even a toilet paper holder in the handicap restroom. The huge roll of tp is on the back of the toilet.Everything was delicious, and I was thinking that I would go back, until I got the bill. It was over $66 (before the tip) for three dinners, and one order of onion rings. It was good... But for that much money, you can get a better meal. ?

Food was cold and for what I paid for an open faced roast beef it should of been amazing and it was far from it the gravy was made with too much gravy mix, the potatoes were stiff, and green beans had no flavor at all even with the piece of cooked bacon and raw onions the only thing good about the meal was the meat itself it was of good quality. But the service was amazing. Our waitress did an incredible jobUpdate: another group breakfast. It was decided to be Martin's for breakfast. Again, wonderful service, and this time, the food was amazing. Breakfast at Martins was an all-around great start to a Sunday morning.
