“My company ordered in lunch for us on Friday. Pizzas from Shortstop. Words can not adequately describe how good these pizzas were. Our area is really devoid of ANY good pizza. THIS is the pizza I've been looking for since we moved to the area years ago! I will be ordering regularly from this place. We also plan to go for dinner one day very soon. If the service is slow, we will be fine with it, as good help is VERY hard to find today. Learn to be patient with people doing their best under difficult circumstances.“

“My son and I like to try small locally owned restaurants and he suggested this one. So glad he did. The food was so good, very tasty! And the service was excellent. Fast, courteous, attentive. We ordered the bacon cheeseburger and a patty melt which came with chicken enchilada soup (the best we have ever had) and fries. We also ordered the potato bombs which were spicy and delicious. My son ordered the banana split waffle for dessert and the picture on the menu does not do it justice! He said it was just amazing. We will definitely be back! 5/5 stars!“

Eberhart-Petro Municipal Golf Course American •
801 N State St, Mishawaka - 11.64 miles

“The course itself gets a 6 out of 5 stars for me! Super cool tee boxes over the river and the fairways and greens looked amazing for a muni course. Only complaint I have is the starter; I did not realize I only paid for 9 holes because I asked to play 18 at the pro shop so I assumed that’s what I was charged for (that’s on me for not checking). But when I made the turn at 10 he came out and proceeded to yell at me and told me they were putting the carts away. I said that’s fine and apologized but he continued to give me attitude and talked down to me like I had wronged him personally. It was a misunderstanding and to come at me with such anger was unwarranted. I won’t lie, I had a rough response for him but it just caught me so off guard that someone would be so incredibly rude to another person for a genuine mistake. That being said, and I can’t reiterate this enough, highly recommend this course!! This interaction will not stop be from coming back!“

“I haven't had anything bad on the menu. The Portibella Mushrooms are huge and covered with melted cheese. The Chicken Strips are my husband's favorite with steak fries and cheese. All the burgers are scrumptious. I don't have a favorite here because I like to try different items when we go. The drinks are icy cold. You should definitely try a "Papa Smurf" when you go. You do have to be 21 to go to this location!!“

“Rudest bartender I've ever met. Dana called last call at 9:45pm on Friday. At 10:20 she walked through the bar and said you have 5 minutes to finish your drinks. She came back at 10:25 and tried to take everyone's glasses. Half our table wasn't finished yet and she became complacent when we would not give her our glasses. She told us we were no longer welcome at this BDubs location. Our server then came back to our table and said they don't close till 11:00 so if you would like to stay and finish your cocktails I would gladly wash your cups.“

“For a Chili's feast I sat, my six-ounce steak laid where I'm at. With broccoli in piles high, I reach for spice, but none I spy!

Salt and pepper, where’d you go? Through booths of red, both high and low, I search for grinders, black and white, These sacred vessels, out of sight!

I pass the greeter’s watchful door, through realms of servers, bar and more, until at last! The quest complete, two grinders found to bless my meat!

The hunt was long, the prize was small (These should be present first of all). The steak was good, once seasoned right, but butter did escape my sight.“
