Hot chicken was hot but not too hot and juicy. The slaw tastes refreshing with cilantro, and it was just the perfect amount of food. Highly recommend it. It's not Nashville hot chicken, but it's still really, really good. The upstairs is like a cool bar with a nice bathroom. It's nice and quiet up there, so perfect for a date night. 21+ up there.

The service was 5 star thanks to Annie and at least 4 others who brought us our food and made sure we were well taken care of. Our food was great despite the lack of warning about how hot the hot chicken is lol. From what we were told it is also NOT their hottest dish. Receipts come with 20% Mallard ice cream which we quickly redeemed. I throughly enjoyed my 1 Piece Fried Meal (fried chicken cutlet) which had the most amazing (only slightly spiced) warmed honey which I drenched everything with. The biscuit was DREAMY!! If I could offer one bit of advice be sure to check out the side dishes on the backside of the menu. I think the macaroni would have made an amazing appetizer. Next time!

Well maybe it's just I have fond memories of what Skippers once was. But at the gas station near…read morethe casino this is probably the worst fish and chips I have had in years. The fish maybe it was just freezer burnt or what maybe it was just the fact that the oil was probably good a few days ago that they fried it in. . The breading was barely browned from the frying and the fish was still wet and watery cold on the inside if it wasn't for the burnt coil taste it probably would have been no flavor at all. . The french fries were soggy barely cooked. . The tartar sauce came in a little cup the mine was not even cold and I wonder how long it is not been refrigerated so I didn't try it. . On a good note the coleslaw was excellent.

So we all met up for a lovely dinner here and the entire experience was fabulous. From our incredibly attentive (and very patient) server to wonderful drinks and tasty food, everything was top notch. We had a reservation (which you can do directly through their website - yay!) and had a couple of minutes to watch the chefs work their magic in the open air kitchen while we waited to be seated. Our server arrived quickly and took our drink orders, then gave us plenty of time (at our request) to enjoy our bevvies and each others company before returning to take our dinner orders. In the meantime, he kept the baskets of their delish butter-and-garlic-imbibed bread coming. Soon, dinner was before us. The Dude and I shared a rotisserie chicken cobb salad and a shrimp appy. Both were fabulous. The rotisserie chicken is smoked and prepped in house, and it was a more than generous portion. The shrimp was good, too, and we topped off the meal with creme brulee. My parents enjoyed their salads, and my son said his burger was quite tasty. We were also impressed that they had locally-brewed Kulshan Bastard Kat on tap. My dad had never tried it before and really enjoyed his pint. Hearthfire was a long ago happy hour staple for me, and I think I'll be back for dinner sooner rather than later!

Walked in as a complete newbie off the street and she took my order and let me pay $20 for 2 tamales/2 sides when I could have had 2 tamales/ 3 sides for $14 on special. I asked her after why she didn't say anything and she told me to look at the menu closer, that I didn't have "common sense". I mean dudddde, I was looking up at the menu, the special was on paper on the counter. Would it be so difficult to anticipate I'd like to pay significantly less for more? Like WT...I was completely shocked when she said she WAS the manager.

I ordered a #4 - 2 Tamale with 1 side. For the Tamales, I selected one Aztec and one Cascadia, and…read morefor my side, an Avocado Cilantro Lime salad. (I did not understand that 'avocado cilantro lime' is the dressing, not the ingredients of the salad.) My husband uncreatively copied my order, only with a single change - he had one of his Tamales "wet" (with a green sauce). Since my husband asked for one of his "wet", neither came wrapped in the traditional banana leaf. (Both of mine were wrapped together in one leaf, so that might explain it - they get treated as a pair.) Oddly, though he asked for green sauce, there was only a white sauce visible. Though the container was filled with a sauce, too, which probably was the green sauce. He said it had a "touch" of heat, but not enough to really make a difference. I'm not that familiar with tamales, but I did enjoy these. We both would have enjoyed some sort of actual hot sauce, but even without it, these were quite tasty.

This time we shared one with each kind of meat offered: chicken, pork and beef. I can't say which I liked more because they all were so awesome as ever. We tried something completely new to us this time: a ceviche called aguachile negro. I Googled it: "Aguachile negro is a bold, spicy Mexican seafood dish featuring raw, butterflied shrimp "cooked" in lime juice, blended with a dark, savory sauce made from roasted chiles, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and Maggi seasoning. Served cold with cucumber and red onion, it offers a deep umami flavor and intense heat, often topped with avocado." I'll say it's hot!!! A heat that grows and fills your whole head. Yet, it was so incredibly delicious I weathered the effects. I am not kidding--I don't think I've had a dish I have loved more. The flavor is fantastic, and when I fished for a little raw prawn and put that thing in my mouth, I just thrilled. We had some of their wonderful guacamole as a starter, and I wish now I had saved some to try with the ceviche--it would have been lovely. I will go back.
