In the area for a couple days, and decided to try this place out. IT'S FANTASTIC! The Party Animal Fried Rice is delicious!

I had hoped for a more pleasant experience during my visit. I noticed some long dog fur in my food, (on the sauce given with the coconut shrimp) which may have come from the three dogs in the dining area. The service was definitely slow, possibly due to having only one server, and while the food was decent, it didn’t leave a lasting impression. I also found the charge of $3 for refills on fountain drinks and a $1.80 fee for not paying in cash to be a bit unusual, especially as we approach 2025—perhaps some system upgrades could be beneficial. On a positive note, the young gentleman who delivered our food was very kind, and I really enjoyed the music choices.

After several years, this place is still one of my favorite spots to grab dinner. The Genaral Tso's is my go to! I Highly recommend giving it a try!! Fried chicken is also great.

This review is kind of in line with other recent reviews. The waiters/waitresses seem grossly outnumbered by the patrons. Either there needs to be more workers, or they have to not seat tables/bar. I don't think it's just incompetence of the staff. The food and beer are tasty with nice/fun hipster fusions. I will complain that a beer can menu without prices led to some annoyance when I found out a PBR can was 7$! There was no one to ask if that amount was correct. We got food in a reasonable time, never were asked if it was any good. Ate and then waited. Well beyond 15 minutes after finishing our entrees we were able to get our check. After 15 more minutes trying to pay with a card we scrounged up enough cash to pay and walk out. I'm sorry the servers tip suffered because of these two factors. I will return and update this review if I see improvements. Really hope they can figure things out.
Parking: The dirt parking lot is in rough shape for anyone with a low-profile car. Have Fun!

Do not go if you're in a rush. Service is absolutely atrocious. Food is most definitely worth the wait if time is not an issue. It appears that if you're a local and well known at this establishment, you will get top-notch services. Newbies will need to be very vocal yet polite to get their orders taken in a timely fashion. Made to order so popular items do go fast.

The food is delicious albeit the same menu for years. The service is very slow for to the fact that they cannot find help and have to rely on one waitress.

50 dollars for horrendous food. Golf ball sized chunks of onion in the rice, egg that had clearly been cooked directly next to fish, chicken sandwich that tasted like fry oil, soggy onion strings, and chicken wings that you'd swear were made of rubber. Absolutely horrible.
I've been to this establishment from the days it was called the Whippy Dip. I have never gotten a bad meal and the last one was stellar, It's worth the trip!

The menu is as eclectic as the decor, but also so much more creative and refined than you would expect. A delightful stop on our trip.

A fun spot with a great menu with something for everyone. The tuna nachos were unexpectedly delightful, Brazilian shrimp had a good heat to it, and the party animal stir fry was seasoned so well. Great vibes, great beer menu, nice people.
