Been here a few times. The food has always been good. The service was great. Down stairs is a bit off but the main floor is very nice. Price is a bit expensive but not crazy.

Went there with an OLD gift certificate on a whim and was glad I did!
The service was fantastic to start. The hostess, the bartender, the servers- all great. The food was delicious 😋 and the drinks were also great. Definitely will return!

First, the service and food was excellent. We had the loaded fries with carne asada and carnitas street tacos. Both were so good (eat the fries quick before they get cold of course). We had our dog with so we used the seating in front of the building, but there's a nice indoor space and a really nice patio that's fenced off.

Wonderful Atmosphere, and great service. Very Veteran friendly staff and supportive of those with crowd issues. From a personal experience, the hostess that seated me went above and beyond due to My PTSD and was very respectable. The waitress was very kind and informative, she gave me great choices to try. Spoke with the Manager on duty and told him that the food was excellent and very flavorful. I would absolutely go again.

Delicious 👍

We ordered the Dooley sliders, cheese curds and bruchetta.

The bruchetta is served loaded which isnt my preference (messy eating & soggy toast points), so I probably wouldn’t order that again

Gave us the wrong stuff and said they’d throw in a free dessert as a consideration, charged us for it anyway. Guess I know better now

Dooley's in West Bend, WI, really came through for us on a casual night out. Holly had been craving some good ol' Mac and Cheese, and sometimes you want something classic and comforting rather than overcomplicated dishes. We browsed the menu and, funny enough, the kids' menu had just what she was looking for. Now, let’s be honest—sometimes kids' menu items can be hit or miss. But let me tell you, Dooley's nailed it with their Mac and Cheese. Holly was thrilled from the first bite. It had just the right amount of cheese—none of that overly thick stuff that makes it feel heavy, but not so light that it felt like it was missing something. It was smooth, gooey, and exactly what she wanted. Sometimes it's hard to get that balance, but Dooley's managed to make it perfectly indulgent without going overboard.

Now, I went for something a little heartier—the Bourbon Chicken Sandwich—and man, it did not disappoint. Chicken sandwiches can often be one of those things where you’re rolling the dice on whether it’s going to be dry or flavorless. But not at Dooley's. The chicken was grilled just right—juicy and full of flavor—and that bourbon glaze? It took things up a notch. It had that slightly sweet and smoky kick you want in a good glaze, but it wasn’t overpowering or too syrupy. It added a nice layer of flavor without masking the taste of the chicken itself, which was seasoned really well. Plus, the sandwich came on a fresh, lightly toasted bun, and it was topped with some crisp lettuce and tomato, giving it that nice contrast in texture. A few bites in, and I knew this was going to be a favorite of mine for future visits.

The service at Dooley's was friendly and attentive without being overbearing, which is always appreciated. We didn't feel rushed, and they checked in on us enough to make sure we were happy without hovering. The overall vibe in the restaurant was relaxed and welcoming, making it feel like a great spot for both families and anyone looking to grab a good meal without any pretension.

One thing I’d say about Dooley's is that they keep their menu simple, and that's a strong suit. They focus on comfort food done right, and it shows. Sometimes, restaurants try to do too much, but here, they stick to the essentials and execute them well. Whether you're craving a hearty sandwich, something a bit lighter, or even just looking to satisfy a Mac and Cheese craving like Holly was, Dooley's has you covered.

All in all, this place is definitely a gem in West Bend, and we’ll be coming back again soon. With great service, solid food choices, and that cozy, no-frills atmosphere, it’s the kind of place where you feel right at home, whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or sitting down for a longer meal. Highly recommend it if you’re ever in the area!

The only bar/restaurant in the area with TV's and non bar food. I had the Asian tuna salad and it was EXCELLENT. My dad's sliders were really good too. I could tell it was high quality beef and perfectly cooked. Super friendly service. TV'S could be updated but whatever.

Dinner for two at 5:00PM on a Friday evening, sat quickly. Although prepared to order the baked fish after hearing good feedback, I order the salmon, lightly blackened with grilled asparagus and due to an allergy, substituted the rice pilaf for sweet potato fries (Otherwise is an optional
side along with regular or truffle fries). My friend ordered the bourbon jack burger with fries. Both were served with great presentation of which I neglected to capture. Both were also excellent and filled us well! Bar atmosphere started to get louder as expected. Will definitely return!
