    Dining interior decoration
    Sarah D.

    Breakfast review start to finish: lots of parking in an industrial area. Home style cooking spot. Interior is standard diner and was clean. Service was friendly and quick. Meal prices are slightly below average with an average plate cost of $8. Food portions are above average. Food wait time was a bit long but food was hot and absolutely delicious. I ordered vegetarian omelet with rye toast dry and apple juice. I requested half order of omelet and agreed to pay same price. Husband had Denver omelet with sourdough and apple juice. Food came out perfect, however, chef does not prepare half order omelets which was disappointing because I threw away at least half of the tasty omelet...and I hate food waste. Overall fast, friendly and good diner food. Recommend for anyone who wants some good portioned home cooking at a great price. Unfortunately no lunch review available.

    This restaurant is pretty good. The staff is welcoming and nice. The food is good, my only complaint was the portion size for the price doesn't mesh. But it was tasty and we'd definitely come here again.

The only dish that didn't quite meet our expectations was the corn bread, but when we told the server he was so kind about it and we were able to exchange it for a different side. The overall service was great! I made a reservation for 4 on a Saturday afternoon and got seated right away. Kyle checked up on us frequently and our food came out pretty quick too! Also, at the bar area there was a TV that played the world cup game, and afterwards baseball. I think this can be a nice lowkey place to watch a game since the vibe was chill. Keep in mind the everyday happy hour is only for the cocktails: the cocktails are $6 and we all enjoyed ours. I got a No. 22 and really liked it. If you don't drink, you can also make the cocktails to mocktails too. Before coming here, I had once been to the next door ice cream place Churn before, but this was my first time coming to Windsor, and I didn't even realize they served the Churn ice cream too for desert! My friends and I shared a triple scoop of double chocolate, sweet cream, and cookies & mint in a cup. It was a good amount of ice cream for the 4 of us, not too sweet either. This place is also advertised as dog-friendly online, which I assume was meant for the outdoor patio seating (the patio looked cute, it had misters and was covered). Overall, great place!! So glad I came here :)

Comfortable, sorta on the dark side. Classy. As I was not driving today, I decided to try their smoked Old Fashioned. Excellent -- and the dark cherries they use are the perfect addition to the cocktail. (The glass is coated with smoke from a smoldering piece of pecan wood, and the cocktail was served with a cloud of smoke under a coaster covering the glass.) The pig sickles ( ribs) were the perfect chance to make a pig of myself. Had the two meat plate, pig sickles and barbecued pulled chicken, If you like corn, you must have the side of corn with your dinner. The barbecue beans were delicious. Our server did a magnificent job tending to our drinks, appetizer, and food orders -- despite being very busy (the place was packed! -- and seemed like she was in constant motion. Very nice individual who liked la Prices? It was expensive, but the best barbecue always is. Eating isn't cheap. It was well worth every dollar spent. All in all, it was a perfect dinner. The perfect parting gift: a small paper bag containing four small donuts, coated with cinnamon. Our bag didn't make it home... I think we've found the perfect place to bring our family and out-of-town guests for dinner.

Unfortunately, the service was disappointing. Our waiter was rude, our water glasses were consistently empty, and she didn't check on us. When we asked questions about the menu, she responded with a blank expression and offered little help. We made our reservation specifically for the live saxophone music, but when we arrived, there was none. When we asked about it, we were told the musician was running late and would arrive later. We waited until the time we were given, but they never showed up. This was incredibly disappointing, as live music was the main reason we made the reservation. Our waiter never mentioned anything about it, only the hostess informed us, which we appreciated. She also kindly refilled our water. Additionally, when we made the reservation, it stated that CityScape parking would be validated. I handed our ticket to the waitress, and she was gone for about five minutes before returning it and saying it had been validated. However, when we went to leave, we found out it had not been validated, and we had to pay for parking. Overall, the experience was very disappointing. Because of the poor service, lack of communication about the live music (despite it being advertised), and the parking issue, I would not return.

The place is right out of a movie (maybe "Roadhouse" or "Urban Cowboy minus the mechanical bull). It's part biker bar, part honky Tonk, pub, and cocktail bar. We came for the burgers and were not disappointed. They were absolutely solid and worth it in every way. The nice, fresh beef patty was grilled to perfection and set in a soft bun with all the usual trimmings. I'd recommend you add thousand island for an extra touch of goodness. The resulting burger was juicy and meaty and drippy and excellent. It was not a throwaway "bar-food" item. The menu has a lot of great things in it, including sandwiches and all manner of comfort food and bar staples. A big surprise were the onion rings and ranch dressing. They were some of the best I'd had in a while. I found them better than the fries which were fairly standard. Others have complained about the service, but ours was really good at lunchtime on a weekday. Our server was also the bartender, and she was attentive and nice, albeit busy with all the workers that frequent this joint. It's filled with a mix of blue-collar, cops, office people, truckers, bikers, and just plain folks. And they play some great songs on the jukebox. Definitely worth it. And try one of the burger variations on the menu (with bacon or mushrooms, avocado, etc).
