We used to LOVE this place back when it was Gamper's. Sadly, the quality has slipped a bit in the past couple of years. The quality of the food has become much more inconsistent. Last time our food was great, but we've been there a few times where we've encountered issues like our fried fish being super dry, steak being badly undercooked (blue/rare when we ordered medium), and our kid was given spoiled milk to drink on one occasion. There seems to be less attention to quality of ingredients than there was in the past. Also sad they got rid of their waffle fries, which used to be one of the menu highlights. Their fries now are just OK. Service has gotten to be a bit more hit or miss as well. One time we had to wait more than 20 mins for our check despite a mostly empty dining room. Their tap list is also a bit limited, which used to be expected for the area, but other local restaurants are quickly gaining the upper hand in this area. The salad bar is still great though and the burgers are still good quality. Not ready to give up on this place just yet, but overall disappointed in the direction it's been going.

Also, we love sitting out on the patio when the weather is nice (it's dog friendly as well!), but our experience is often ruined by the fact that smoking is allowed so close to the entrance (which often makes it impossible to even get in the building without going through a cloud of smoke, which may not bother everyone, but can be a big deal for those with asthma, little kids, etc).

Had a great experience. Our server Kayla was very attentive and sweet. The food was delicious and the salad bar is always a good addition. Will definitely be back!

They have a gluten free bun. Burgers are thick, good flavor. Ranch dressing is made in house and very good.

Good food good atmosphere. Prices definitely on the higher side for what your actually getting. What's wrong with giving more better portions sizes so I don't have to spend roughly 50 bucks with appetizers and pop.

Parking: Plenty of parking spaces.

Stopped for bowling and dinner on a Saturday afternoon. Our family of 5 enjoyed the bowling. But the meal experience was very lacking. The salad bar had quite a few empty items and only had iceberg which most of it was rusty. Burgers were very dry and tasteless. Server brought our 13 year old a kids menu and his beverage in a covered kids cup, he was pretty embarrassed. No napkins or silverware at the table until after our food had came. We may come back for bowling but definitely won't eat here again.
