Food was ordered thru door dash. The moment it was delivered and opened you could tell it was put together carelessly and sloppy. The pita chips were soggy that came with the 1/2 filled portion of extremely burnt melted plastic container. The pierogie dinner was a pool of grease with burnt black onions and bacon. The pierogies were a crumbled mess more like a mash potato nothing stayed impact. I understand if the kitchen closes early but don't advertise your going to have food available if you cannot offer good quality food at all hours of the night. What I received makes me wonder if this is how the lunch service is. People want to spend money and support your business but spending $35 and receiving what I got is terrible. That should have never left the store. Have some quality control who was the the manager or in charge of the kitchen.

Sleazy business practices sleazy owners. Bartender overcharges for drinks not ordered. Gives you the "mistake" back in cash then runs it back on your bank card. Avoid this dump.

Beware the owners of this restaurant are horrible individuals. One is registered sex offender. Beware.

The owner of this establishment is registered sex offender. Please a sexual predator search on owner Tim Adkins before going here.

Very nice waitress

If you are not a regular customer, the bartenders will ignore you. Took 30 minutes to get a drink and another 40 minutes just to get the check.

Our server Rocks! She was super nice, informative, and very helpful.I have been here for Monday's wing special, which is a good deal. They have so many sauces to choose from and taste great, too.I was just there for Thursday's burger and fries for $5. What a great price. What a good burger. I personally love their fries. Thick and crispy with soft centers.

Everytime I order from here, they always forget something. The last time I ordered, they didn't put any salt on my pretzels.

Wow! Walking in your greeted with a smile and a friendly hello. Dianne's service created an awesome experience for my night away from home. I happened to stumble in on a night with burger specials so I had to try it. I left full and will definitely come back when she's there.

This is my favorite bar of all time. The people who work here and the people who come to be served are all so friendly. One of my favorite bartenders is Dianne. She always makes sure to take care of me and everyone else very efficiently and she always knows how to make me laugh even on a bad day. You definitely need to check this place out if you have never been here. The food is out of this world. I recommend the grilled chicken tenders or one of their delicious burgers. The service is always top notch and the quality of everything is amazing.

Giving 2 stars because I find it to be BS that the way someone else orders food will ruin my meal. I ordered 12 traditional chicken wings, and when I got them they were all drums. talking to the server about it I guess it's because someone ordered all flats prior to me ordering. This person also paid extra money to get all flats but I don't receive a discount for getting something I didn't want. Food was fine but I won't order again from here because of it!

We come here often. The Ruben rolls are my favorite thing ever. They make great Bloody Mary's and I hope to be back in for karaoke one Sunday. The bartenders are always great and can make just about anything you ask. For sure will be back in a Tuesday for trivia with Paul as well.

I want to like this place so I keep trying it, thinking my dislikes are just one-offs, but I doubt I'll be back again. The bartenders talk to the regulars at the bar and act like everyone else is a nuisance, especially people who want a table and/or are ordering food, both in-person and for pickup. Both times we sat in, we found ourselves continously waiting for menus, refills, etc. the entire time we were there, and both servers were clearly annoyed with waiting on us.The food is just okay for the price. Their specials are enticing but they need to read the other reviewers who are saying the same things and make some changes.
