“Rarely do I take the time to “recommend” a restaurant, but my wonderful experience this past Saturday deserved the recognition. Samuel’s is one of my fiancé’s favorite places to dine and for some reason I hadn’t been. Now that I’ve been, we will be making this a regular spot. For appetizers we ordered the truffle fries and the brussel sprouts. They were both cooked to perfection and exploding with flavor. If you liked those items at CKB when it was open, then you’ll love these. For entrees we had the steak and hot chicken sandwich. Both were phenomenal. The menu prices are extremely reasonable. In fact, I think the prices are a tad low given the high quality of the product. If you haven’t checked out this gem, you’re missing out.“

“Traveled from Michigan to see Anthony Gomes, who put on a stellar performance. Mojo's bar was pretty good. The appetizers were good, the waitress for our section and service she provided was fantastic: our drinks never hit empty before they were refilled all night. The highlight was the venue. A nice little intimate room with great acoustics and a good sound. 2 notes: if you've never been to Mojo's be aware the venue is in a separate room- nobody told us this and had it not been for the herd of people by what I thought was the back door and hearing pre-gig music, I would have missed the show, and also, you are not allowed to take pictures or video during the performance ( their policy), so if you are expecting to do it- don't.“

“I cannot tell you how wonderful the customer service is at the Evansville, IN Honey Baked Ham store! We ordered a ham to be delivered to a friend from the corporate store and found out today, 3 days before Christmas, that the delivery would not happened until the 27th!! I made a desperate call from South Carolina to see if the local store could help in any way and you would not believe how wonderful everyone was! They were most certainly dealing with lines of customers on this day and yet, my problem became their problem as they searched for ways to save the day. When we realised there were no delivery options that would work before Christmas, Eric, the store manager, offered to make the delivery himself! This is really unbelievable - he didn't know us at all, but he most certainly thought we would not be a repeat customer because we are not from the area, and yet he cared enough to personally take care of us. I think his actions speak volumes.“

“My wife had the fish....not much flavor in the batter, and it needed to have the grease drained off of it better.I had the chicken fingers. Sometimes, they are served to greasy as well, but this time, they were better. Rafferty's has the best saw for dipping chicken fingers (combination of honey mustard and BBQ sauce)My wife did not get the side salad added to her meal this time, but if you do get a side salad be sure to try their hot bacon and honey mustard dressing as it is out of this world!Rafferty's has always been more on the expensive side, so keep this in mind.Parking: Parking is limited (for the size of the place) at the restaurant itself, but there is parking in the adjacent outlet store lot.Wheelchair accessibility: Nice ramp.“

Her personality was great and she even bought my husband a beer for his birthday herself. It was a great experience and we will definitely be back hoping to see Mariah again.

“It’s a great place to eat .. I will say I was unhappy with service.. I booked the event room .. explain Arrival time was 815-830.. so when guest started to arrive at exactly 815 the room was not ready at all .. every table was filled with dishes. I had approx 20 people five or take I told them on the phone that morning.. they finally got 2 sets of 2 tables that comfortably was set up in the main dining room as 4 to table they crammed 10 chairs to these tables.. when I asked for another set of tables to be cleaned our server wouldn’t speak to me but rolled her eyes so I went to talk to someone else.. when they approached her with me she told me that she was my server. And she still has not started cleaning tables instead she told me there were 20 chairs total at those tables.. I had to get upset and told her we were crammed and everyone unhappy and told her I wanted 2 more tables cleaned.. PLEASE!!! Finally she did with an attitude and goin so slow like it killed her.. she was prob 25yr old .. then she sat out on her phone and I had to get up and get her if we needed drinks or anything. It would been a great night if had a good server.“
