Yummy food, good service and a slightly high but still reasonable price point for the food…read more We went on a Sunday evening and had a table of 6. We all enjoyed the food, the waitress was very sweet and the restaurant was not crazy busy. We could hear each other quite well. I'm pretty sure they use MSG on their food because I'm allergic and had a reaction (not anaphylaxis level) so I'm not sure we would be back without checking the menu more carefully but it was all very tasty.

About 30 of us descended upon Neisen's on a Sunday afternoon after a car cruise, and they handled…read morethe large crowd without problem (we had called ahead). The restaurant is big, so they had plenty of room set aside for our group, and two servers were all it took to attend to our orders for drinks and food. Staff were very pleasant and efficient. Food is what you'd expect for a sports bar, just basic good food without pretense. If you're looking for a gastronomic experience, you're in the wrong place. Here you get beer, drinks, hot food, pool tables, and sports on tv's. My son had the Reuben sandwich and said it was one of the better ones he's had. I had bacon cheeseburger and had no complaints. The waffle fries as an upgrade were worth the slight price add-on.

Lots of drinks options including a sizable wine line and tap beers. We ordered the roasted Brussels to start and they disappeared quickly. Everyone found something different on the menu. I ordered the Caramel Apple Salad with grilled chicken and it was delicious. This was a fun twist on a traditional apple salad. My husband ordered the Chimichurri Bowl with grilled chicken and really liked it. Everyone at the table finished their plates because it was delicious and the portions were perfect. We finished their night with a crème brûlée and it was the perfect ending to our meal. Service was flawless and the overall ambiance was lively but we could easily carry on our own private conversation. I can't wait to go back as there was so much more on the menu I want to try.

It's a little bit off the highway as it is located at downtown St. James. We highly recommend. Their soup special was homemade dumpling soup. Delicious with huge cuts of carrots and celery.

We tried the caramel roll, of course, an orange cranberry scone, and a sausage quiche. The quiche was great. The scone was soft and tasty.

Harry Potter would not be disappointed here!…read more The Ettlin's Cafe was probably one of the cutest spots I've been in a while for its own unique reasons! This cafe is found in a quiet spot in the town of New Prague. The restaurant gives off small town vibes but their special drink flights are spectacular! Now, of course we chose to visit this place for their Harry Potter themed drinks and I am so glad we did. This cafe actually creates 4 themed drink flights! 3 unique coffee flights - Harry Potter, Star Wars, & Peanuts, and 1 boozy Harry Potter themed flight. The presentation of these flights were gorgeous! Each one comes out in a beautiful wooden deco box with different themed Harry Potter stickers on the sides; as well a fun character toy brought to your table - we had both the Sorting Hat and Dobby. The booze flight also arrives with one drink aflame! There is a drink designed per-house. Majority of theme were delicious. The one set on fire did have a bit of an off-putting taste to it due to the flammable component drizzled over top. Besides this, the drinks were very nice. Not a fan of any of the themed flights? Don't worry, they have a regular mimosa flight for muggles as well On to the food. I chose to order the #3 From the Hen (2 eggs, choice of meat, hash browns, and toast). The food was absolutely delicious and extremely filling. Let me put you on one really quick.... The sausage is out of this world, the best I have had in years! I had a moment to sing my praises to the owner and he clued me in that they actually get their breakfast sausage from a local butcher near by! This all makes sense. The sausage was HUGE great flavor, thick and juicy in texture. It reminded me of a true German sausage. I would come back for that breakfast alone! All love to small businesses supporting small businesses! Overall really enjoyed my time here! If you haven't been out to try Ettlin's I might suggest adding it to your list!
