Appetizers to wings it's usually the place for me. Today absolutely crushed that excitement for future visits. We were between youth basketball games and called to order ahead to be efficient and effective for our day but also to experience the great food and service weve come to enjoy. 12 wings and 2 chicken sandwiches. Said we were 15 minutes out. We arrived about 15 minutes after we called just like we discussed. Informed the staff who we were and that we were there. She said no problem and that shed have our order out the moment it was done. We waited for 10-15 minutes and the food arrived. Somehow room temp and fries colder than that. Both sandwiches and the fries and the tots. Cold. My sons wings were at room temp if i round up. We told the waitress she said shed talk to the manager and left and just never ever came back. Another staff member came by and asked how it was. We told her cold and not good. She said shed talk to the manager I said no need im sorry to bring it up but im hangry and we were in a hurry. But it was too late being ghosted by a waitress. She said I just got here but ill talk to them. Then she also just melted into the fabric of the restaurant. We did get to watch her talk to her coworkers and then stare at us in unison. But we were in a hurry So I ate my buffalo ice cold deli meat sandwich but I just couldnt choke down the fries my family ate their meals vulture style picking what they could stomach. This wouldnt be an issue at all if our original waitress had spoken to the manager or even just came back and said sorry? Or hey lets microwave it literally anything. We didnt ask for a discount we didnt yell at anyone.. But she hid from our table chucking deuces and no one spoke to us after that. We ended up paying $63 for a bottom 5 dinner. Just to get to the game on time. Im actually quite sad about this review.

Upon walking in, we saw the place looked clean and comfortable. We went up to the counter to order, but weren't sure what to get. The person in front of us finished his order and we were instantly tickled to see how they send the order to the kitchen. We asked the person behind the counter what was good, as we were visiting from California and had never been there before. He was great at explaining the menu and giving suggestions. Very friendly. We settled on sharing a swamp donkey burger, fries and a side of Cole slaw. We watched our order whiz away to the kitchen and went to get our drinks. We found a good table, sat down and talked for a few minutes. Before long our order had arrived. The person that brought it over asked if we needed anything else. , and we asked for an extra plate and a fork and knife. He quickly brought it all over, and we felt silly because we didn't see utensils were right next to the drink machine, and we should have gotten them ourselves. I apologized for missing it, but he was so polite and friendly and seemed like it was no big deal. We cut the burger in half, I started on the cold slaw (delicious), and then got to it. The burger was amazing. It was big, perfectly done, and completely hit the spot. The fries were also great. We didn't have long before we gad to get back to the hotel to get ready for the flight, and having already paid at the beginning, it was quick and easy heading out. I don't know if/when we will be back to Council Bluffs, but if we are, we will be back 100% for sure. Highly recommend!

One of my friends has been here with his co-workers a few times but I haven't been here before. (Maybe one time many many years ago that I don't remember....) We walk in on a Monday night and there were a few people there. It's a small place so I'm glad we were able to get a table. When we sat down, the bartender, (waitress as well), came right over and took our drink orders and eventually our food orders. I wanted to try their renowned broasted chicken. (A device essentially uses pressure cooking and light frying to create a thin crispy skin and juicy interior). The chicken was some of the best 'fried' chicken that I've ever had, seriously. Super crispy skin and juice inside. Reminds me a little of Korean fried chicken. The texas toast was yummy, the cole slaw was creamy (if you like creamy slaw), and the crispy tots were crispy delicious. My friend got a broasted chicken sammich and he loved it too. (High praise coming from him.) My friends and I have been wanting to go back and get more broasted chicken since we left. On Fridays, they have a 4 piece special for $13.99 that I'll have to take advantage of soon. All in all, this little bar/restaurant has some amazing food that I just didn't expect after driving and running past it for years. Can't wait to go back.

Our group ended up waiting a long time each time we needed to speak to the server and it resulted in a lunch that took significantly longer than a weekday lunch should take. It would have been more understandable if they had been swamped but it was a pretty light day and we were one of a handful of tables at most. However, I will still give it another chance because the blackened salmon salad and spinach artichoke wrap I had on the two visits were both delicious.

Our players are wonderful kids, but they are not quiet, and the staff treated them with nothing but respect and good humor.
