The vibes were off from the start, felt “eerie and outdated”. The place was overpriced, especially considering how bad the food was. It was honestly so unappetizing we debated whether it was even worth taking home. Ended up tossing the leftovers because they made the car smell awful. For the same money, we could’ve gone somewhere way better. Definitely not going back.

I recently picked up my to-go order, which included a medium-well cheeseburger. Upon opening it, I noticed that there were no ketchup, napkins, utensils, or coleslaw included. Unfortunately, since I’m in the process of moving, I’ve had to dispose of many of my condiments. As a result, I wasn’t able to fully enjoy my burger and fries. This is the second time I've ordered from this location and both experiences have not met my expectations. I may need to reconsider ordering from here again in the future.

The portions are so much smaller than in past visits. The service was nothing special.

It was empty at lunch time which is not such a good sign but we tried it anyway. We had a meatball pasta that was so watered down and flavorless that even after adding salt and Parmesan I left my plate almost full and not even once the server asked if the food was good or why I would leave all the food in my plate. The service was poor for a restaurant that is empty, although the server claims it to be always full, so maybe I just went on a bad day.

I like this place but it gets a 3 out of 5 due to the fact they change the menu every few months and its a terrible idea their meatloaf and prime rib are the best menu items if you ask me and they dont even serve it anymore this really pisses me off and I will only ever eat here when they stop pulling this which is going to be never.

Stopped in for lunch. Stuffed quahoags, burger, and pastrami wrap. Clams were tasty, burger was good (bit over cooked). Pastrami was good. Strong feeling it's Sysco food. Service was ok. Friendly, a little forgetful, had to go to the bar to ask for water, mustard, and a to go container. First time for me here. It's appears to be a local hangout, and I would guess consistent in the service and food.

I had a good meal of a chicken Parm sandwich but my husband was not pleased with the quality of his buffalo chicken sandwich. He said it was not a breast of chicken but seemed like frozen chicken tenders. Fries were good and service is always great

The staff is amazing!!! The food is so goood!!! 10:10 recommend
Went to Checkerboards a few times to have a few drinks and play keno but the waitresses were very unattentive and pretty much ignored me. Today had to wait over 20 minutes for the bartender to play my keno cards even though there were only two other people seated at the bar. Then the owner had the nerve to tell me I didn't leave enough of a tip when I was in before and lied about other waitresses. For a manager to bring that up is despicable and I think she should go back to school to learn some customer service skills.

Quiet intimate setting, nestled in a strip mall, the pizza and food are wonderful! The service was very good, we are planning a return visit soon!

The service was great and the food came quickly. Howerver, the food was not quite what I expected. I got some fries and a small cheese pizza. The fries were hot and crispy, but they were very bland. They did not even taste salted. The pizza smelled garlicky, which I was excited about, but the taste was lacking. It was also bland, and tasted like a frozen pizza. I like the atmosphere of the restaurant. It feels very classic and homey.
Delicious chicken salad wrap! Great service.
