They come with steak fries, and I have to get the vinegar slaw. It's a must for me if you like a sweet and sour slaw you will love it. I've gotten the ribeye before and they are so tender. Can't wait to get another one.And there catfish is a favorite among guest. They even have specials every night. And it's not unusual to see the owner helping out. He will take you to your table and even helps bring your food out. Anything he can do to help his staff and to make you comfortable. He is very involved in his restaurant. It's a nice place but not fancy bring the kids. There's always a lot of people here, but not a long wait. There not opened on Sundays and Mondays. But Tuesday through Saturday they do a lunch from 11 to 2 then they close get ready for dinner from 5 to 9 and then Friday and Saturday they are open till 10.

We started with the pretzel bites and the potato platter (March special). Everything was amazing! My father-in-law and I both said the pierogies tastes like they were made from scratch. The potato skins were chef's kiss as well. One person in our party ordered crab cakes, another ordered the grilled chicken Caesar, one a hamburger, kids chicken tenders, and I got the tuna melt. We all finished every bite of our food. The service was exceptional. I highly recommend making reservations. We will be back!

I wasn't crazy about my pasta. It was very salty. But my warm brownie dessert was definitely my favorite part. Overall lovely ambiance and service was great. The food was just okay.

There is a family side dining room as well as the other side of the building appears to be a 21+ bar. The family side Had a decent amount of seating. We ordered a variety of items, including the BLT, which was very tasty on sourdough, they were willing to make me a grilled chicken tenders instead of fried along with their shoestring french fries, very tasty. The kids were pretty happy with the mac & cheese, although it looks like it was just Kraft- And they split one of the grilled cheese, which looked amazing. We had one order of pizza as well- it is a hand tossed crust versus thin. And the ham and cheese grill was also very good. Service was pretty slow, but when we told them we were trying to get to the show they picked up the pace a bit this place has been here for a long time, so I'm not sure why it doesn't already have a Yelp profile but I did go ahead and add one because this should be on your radar if you are anywhere near Lebanon. I appreciate the fact you're willing to make me something not fried :) The menus they have posted online do not match the menus that are in store as one person from our group was specifically looking for fried mushrooms from a prior menu It is worth a visit if you like comfort bar food!

I can definitely understand why people will tailgate just to get in for dinner. We started off with the meatballs, the pork loin, and the pierogies. The pork loin is a must get, and the other others were delicious as well. For my entrée, I got the pork loin as well because it was so good as an appetizer, and before that I started with the tomato soup, which was also excellent. Addison was our waiter and was extremely attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly. We had a party of over 10 people and he handled it flawlessly. If you're in the mood for something out of the city in a little bit of a change of pace, I would highly recommend trying here.

The short rib pierogis were one of the best things I've eaten- the horseradish sauce pairs perfectly with the savory beef. I got the daily special which was a filet mignon meatloaf. It was so tender, but the Demi glaze is what made it perfect, sweet & savory. All meals are served with a cup of tomato soup or a wedge salad with the best candied pork belly on top. The jalapeño cornbread had the consistency of a moist cake. If I had to pick between Bonge's or the famous St. Elmo's, I'm picking Bonge's every time.

Wow what a find!! Thanks YELP!…read more Went here for a business dinner on a Wednesday night. Only a few tables occupied. So the place was not noisy at all. Also no blaring music in the background which I really liked. We were waited on by Sarah. Just an awesome individual. So friendly and attentive. Also cute as a button as the old folks say. :-) She guided us through the menu and also made a few suggestions which we went with. We started with an app - cheese curds served with a sriracha dipping sauce. There is no way I was in Indiana. :-). The cheese curds were legit! They have a solid drink menu. We got the bare knuckles porter and an espresso martini. The martini was fantastic. No actual espresso so no caffeine. Not bad! My main was a BYO Burger. A top 10 burger for me. Smashed style and cooked perfectly with the lacy, crusty edges. I got the following - cheddar, bacon, grilled onions, grilled mushrooms, fried egg, jalapeños and fried egg. Absolute money! For a side I got the truffle fries ($5 up charge) but well worth it! So damn good. This place is a gem and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. I hope to be back to the area to try it again.

The sandwich was one of the best I've had!! It wasn't particularly large in diameter, but was thick & breaded/flavored well with lettuce, onion, pickle, tomato & mayo. The onion rings were also good, but not quite as good as the sandwich. They were not as crisp as I like, but otherwise good. Danielle was my server & she was very nice and did a great job. I will absolutely have to come back and bring my wife, too!! Everything about this place was really nice. The outside, dining room, bathroom all have nice, patriotic decor.

I did see they allow you to make reservations on Open Table, so I booked it for a weekday to try it out. It wasn't nearly as busy as the parking lot looked, there was plenty of seating. It was a nice day so they had the windows open and they also had someone playing live music so it was a tad loud but, not overly loud where you can't hear your conversation. The menu is not your typical menu, it's very crafty if that's a word. The service was very good, and she explained the menu well and we took her up on her recommendations. Turkey pastrami which I had never had before. It tastes really fresh and felt healthy. The salad comes in a little small bowl but full of goodness. It's a really nice place for a girls night out, or a family dinner. Wouldn't consider it a good place for date night as it is pretty loud.
