“Stopped in after a Reds game to get dinner with my wife on our way back to the KOA Campground nearby. Clare had our table and was a great server! Frequent visits to the table, very cheerful, and served us a fantastic steak sandwich. Draft beer was cold and clean taste. And they have Keno. My kind of place, I will be back the next time I’m in the area 😁“

“Amazing people providing amazing service with amazing food; especially the POTATOES! Just an amazing place that makes dining a pleasure. The potato guy.“

“The special condiments like Thousand island dressing for the Rueben ( corned beef version) and the mustard for the Grilled cheese sandwich were pretty non existent. The reuben, you can ask for more dressing, and put it between the layers, but the grill cheese, unless im dipping the sandwich into mustard ( which was a great flavorful mustard) , you can't add any. Its melted to the bread. Adults do like grilled cheese, so if you think its probably a tween or teen, don't put much on assumption... ask the customer. In addition, the grilled cheese had the driest bread. Crispy, but... cracker like. Weird. Had to sip water or pop every bite.

Also, WHITEOUT PRICING THAT HAS CHANGED. The price on the menu was different than the bill. Not cool.

Nice clean bathrooms, great atmosphere, decent servers, fix the sandwich condiments, and please fix the menu pricing if you change it.

Thanks“

“First time here and food and service were excellent. I was also excited because they had no music which I consider noise pollution when I am trying to have a conversation with a friend. The server told us this was because they forgot to turn it on. PLEASE, keep it off. It was wonderful. I go to a restaurant to enjoy food and conversation, not to listen to a concert.“

“We ate at Villaggio's this evening. We always appreciate having Randa as our waitress whenever we come in. She is so pleasant and hard working and always takes great care of us. The food and patio seating this evening were excellent. Thanks for everything!!!“

“I’ve come by Lock 27 twice this summer while passing through town and both visits were fantastic! The drinks were top-notch, the food was delicious, and the service was warm and welcoming. Kenzie stood out as she was knowledgeable on the town, genuine with her recommendations, and a pleasure to chat with. Along with the dog friendly patio, there’s no better spot! I’ll definitely be back again!“

“Our server, Jennabelle, was amazing and so funny, friendly and helpful. Very knowledgeable about the menu (their mild has zero heat, she let me know so I wouldn't be disappointed).
The place was clean when we went in on a Saturday night. We loved the food.
The only thing I was disappointed in was the skeeball and one of the claw machines weren't wanting to take our money. But I understand that's something they probably have to call someone in to fix.

If we're in the area again it's on our list of returns.“
