I'm gonna come right out and say it... This place blows! If you like waiting at least an hour for food, then this is the place for you! Came here on a Thursday night and the staff could not get their shit together. The one bartender on staff was obscenely overwhelmed and the useless manager (Dave I think it was) could barely find a way to make himself useful. He was extremely rude and unhelpful. After the wrong flavor chicken wings were delivered to us multiple times we might have considered eating them due to near starvation had they not been ice cold. I wouldn't even feed those pathetic excuses for wings to my dog. Save your money and dignity and find some grub elsewhere.

We ordered some wings and salads and hush puppies for our staff meeting and they were delicious!! I’ve also been there to watch a live band play and there’s plenty of space bartenders were great. The whole vibe is wonderful. Glad to have it on 17!!

The ambiance in the bar area was very nice. Food was good overall except the wings were a little cold. They were setting up for live music which was nice but we didn't stay for it because we finished dinner before it started. Serving staff was attentive.

These reviews have to be all drunk reviews or they lost their sense of taste. We had a table of 14 and not one person got the correct order. Food was well overcooked, under seasoned and the drinks we watered down. My fries we both not cooked and freezing cold. I felt so bad for the waitress bec they seemed severely understaffed and the wait was terrible, at least an hour just for the food.

Nicely remodeled space just right of former Yakadoos inside of Radisson hotel. Pool, pinball, TVs, food and bar.

At 6:30 pm, a band started. They played good music. But, it was horribly loud. No way we could talk. Even the waitress said she struggled to hear customer’s orders. This loud of music is something appreciated at 8pm or later. Not during the dinner hour after a long day of driving.

Next door to what used to be Yakadoos. East end of Radisson. Much larger with eating/ Drinking area and games area (pool and pinball). TVs throughout. Great remodel and nice place. Newly remodeled space is a right turn at door from what used to be Yakadoos. Formerly Yakadoos door is locked... look right!

Restaurant is extremely spacious and clean, with a lot of cool decor. Bar area was about half filled; dining area had no patrons. Dining area had pool tables, and a wall of pinball machines. They had a great variety of music. We were seated at a high top table for two. Our server came over, did not introduce herself, but we know her name to be "Megan" from our bill. She asked if we wanted anything to drink; we both got water. Before she walked off, I asked if they had any happy hour specials on food & she said that because they were newly open, they were not having specials yet. When she returned with our waters, we were prepared to order, but she told us that she would be back in a minute. She finally came back to our table, just as I was just about to walk out. Upon returning to our table, her first question was, can I refill your beverage, but then she stuttered mid sentence, and asked if another waitress had taken our order yet. I said I would like my water refilled, but I would like to order food first, considering I've been sitting here for 10 minutes waiting to order. My husband ordered the bacon cheeseburger with fries, and I ordered the southwest chicken salad. I asked what dressing comes on the salad, and she said a chipotle ranch, and I requested honey mustard. I asked if they had onion rings, and she replied that they didn't, and said that they had fries, tots or chips. I asked if I could order a side of tots. She left for a moment, came back, and asked if I wanted my "hush puppies" out with my food or beforehand. I said, "I didn't order hush puppies. Do you mean tots?" She said "Oh yes, tots". I said I would like them with the rest of the food. She leaves to put the order in, comes back another minute later, and says they don't have any tots. She asked if I wanted something else; I said no. We waited some time for our food. I grabbed one of my husband's fries immediately, and noted it to be limp and cold. Aside from that, they were fresh cut, and would've been dynamite hot! He cut off a bite of his cheeseburger for me. The burger was a bit dry, but flavorful and well seasoned. If it wouldn't have been so overcooked, it would've been a pretty decent burger. The bun was nicely toasted, and they used shredded lettuce, instead of leaf lettuce. My salad. At first glance, the salad was massive. It came with grilled chicken on it, even though the menu advertised it as fried chicken. The waitress did not ask me if I wanted fried or grilled chicken on the salad. They swapped out the chicken without asking me. The honey mustard had good flavor. There were a lot of fresh mushrooms. There were more mushrooms than chicken, and they had a strong earthy flavor. That's always a clear indication that the mushrooms have not been properly washed. The menu stated that the salad came with tomatoes; there wasn't one tomato on the entire salad. There were a few diced onions. What I generally get at most restaurants, are thin slices of red onion; not white onion, and definitely not diced, (like you would put on a hotdog). The black bean and corn, was spread throughout. The ratio of spinach to chicken to onion, black bean and corn, were all off. Massive amounts of raw leaves of spinach and mushrooms, a little grilled chicken, no tomato, and a bit of diced onions, black beans, and corn. What a waste from the kitchen! While I was piling our dishes, the waitress came over and cleared. She asked if we wanted a refill on our waters, which we replied that we did not, and we assumed that she would come back with our check. We waited, and she finally came back around, then asked if we wanted anything else. Naturally, if we wanted anything else, we would have ordered it when she was clearing the table, and when we turned down a refill on water. Just to make sure there were no misunderstandings again, I was very clear that we just wanted our bill. She brought our check, and I noticed that she charged an extra dollar for my salad. There was also an ad

Finally there is a sports bar on the 17!! First off they just opened and still working things out. Bar area is nice and open, a lot of choices for draft beer. Service was good but as I said still working on the kinks. Disappointed about the posts that were posted on Taste of FXB about having a happy hour and wings special. Neither was the case. Went there and there was no happy hour and no wing specials. Shouldn't post something if it is not happening yet. Hopefully they get their happy hour going because it would be great and get more business!! Food was pretty good..,,Cheesesteak sandwich was great. Fried Chicken sandwich was good, but need to change the oil they fry it in. Fries would have better if they were hot & fresh. Prices on menu were not the same as the bill. Need to fix it because some people will not tolerate it. Overall just glad there is a place to go now in the 17 for a cold draft beer!!

No website. Closes at 11 on weekdays. Garbage. Management... try harder. Don't open a business and not advertise. 101 and you're still in high school. ‍
