We went there as a group and ordered grilled cheese from the kids menu for the little ones. The food came out maybe an hour later and it literally looked like they just put slices of cheese on bread. No grill. Nothing. The best part was when I went to the bar area to ask them to actually grill it..... a RAT ran under my feet and quickly ran behind the bar. It was unbelievable.

Prices were good and we really enjoyed our visit.

It's less than 1% of the places I visit that are true beer clean glassware astute. There are many that do a good job, but when you see the lacing on glassware that I saw tonight, you know you're in rarified air. FOOD: ok I know most people don't need out over glassware the way I do so let's discuss the food - I went more unique with a lamb sausage and a boar sausage, plus my new friends next to me shared their fries. My opinion? Awesome. Well executed sausage, the fries were really good - crisp on the outside and still perfect potato texture inside while being hot with a fry sauce side that perfectly complemented Service was great, met regulars, had tasty food - but the whale in this adventure was the care for the glassware. This is special - the owner truly cares about your experience when they nail the small details a lot of folks miss. I didn't miss this detail because it's massive in the nuance on your beer but takes special care and pride to get right. Bangers takes pride in giving you a beer in a properly maintained glass, and that's uniquely special. Applause to Bangers for attention to detail!

Solid cocktail bar in downtown that is open late. So we went here after dinner for a "dessert"…read morecocktail. The place was pretty empty but that is expected on a weekday. Beautiful decor inside and very nice service. Good choices of cocktails and light finger-foods. I ordered the Bean there, Done that : espresso martini, with vodka. I got the upgrade of Grey Goose vodka that brought the cocktail to a whopping $18. But it was delicious, and very pretty! My husband had his birthday and he ordered the Smoke and Mirrors cocktail which he really enjoyed. But the upgrade to Blanton #27 added a whopping $27 to this already expense $15 cocktail. Yes, it was nice, but no, it was not worth the $42 cocktail of about 4 sips.....For a special occasional like a milestone birthday I don't mind paying this, but that is too crazy to be worth it for just a regular "drink time".

Traveling for work and was looking for a place for something to eat with a lively atmosphere. Found…read moreon Facebook that Macs restaurant ( also known as the old Vets building to locals) was having blues/ jazz this night. I hopped on yelp to check out reviews of where I was considering... very mixed as well as dated. So decided to try anyway. Was so happy I did. So if you're looking for an upscale fancy dinner this is not your place. But it is elevated bar food. I had the flatbread bbq chicken pizza. Crust nice and crunchy with so much topping the crust had a hard time supporting it when you picked it up to eat. The previous yelp reviews said they waited forever for food. I found the service above average. The restaurant set up is very much like a Lyons's hall. A bar with lots of tables around randomly and of various sizes. So I walked to the bar to find out if I needed to be seated or just help myself. The bartender stated to sit anywhere I wanted. I told her I was interested in food as well so she handed me a menu. I asked if I needed to come to the bar to order and was told I would be waited on. BC of previous reviews I timed stuff. 3 min after sitting at a random table I was acknowledged and told she would be right back. 1 min later she was asking what I wanted to eat and if I wanted anything to drink. The food menu did not have wine only beer and soda. There is a separate menu for wine. Stella, my waitress was back momentarily with that. After placing my order food arrived within 10 min. Nothing like the horrible service I had read about in previous reviews. Thanks Stella for the awesome service! I will be back The music was a bunch of locals that have been playing together for years and good at it. Era of music was chuck berry, Otis Redding, and some of there own work ( Rooster Blues) Even though this was a Thursday night jam session I felt included. People very friendly and personal

Sitting there waiting for someone to at least come take our order... Hell no, they only serve tables with reservations! Which we DID have. After 30 minutes of watching others get help. I said PHUCK this! Never again....

The kind of place where your water never gets empty and somehow everyone seems to know exactly what you need before you do. ...and the food. Wow. The menu gets a creative refresh every couple of months, which keeps things interesting, but they've also got a lineup of permanent heavy hitters that are basically perfect every time. Smash burger. Steak frites. Seafood ceviche. Tomahawk steak. I mean... come on. Also -- the bar! Some of the hardest-working pros in the Springfield/Eugene scene are behind it. Great wine list and cocktails that feel like smart little love letters to the classics. In short: this place is legit. Great people, great food, great drinks. If you haven't tried it yet... what are you waiting for? Go. Now. Your stomach will thank you.

I wanted to like this place so bad. My family took me here as special celebration of getting to see…read moreeach other while I was visiting. The inside was pretty but it REEKED of used kitty litter the second we walked in. I have no idea why it smelled like that but that's what my entire family described it as and it got even stronger when you walked by the end of the bar. We ordered drinks and I did really like mine so that was a plus. We then ordered a couple appetizers as we had a fairly big party. The sourdough trio and the beef carpaccio were okay. We loved the scallop esquites though which were delicious. The bathroom was really weird, you go through a back door down a hallway and once you get to the all gender bathroom it's closed off by plywood doors for each individual stall which was really weird and felt cheap in a restaurant that looks nicer. Our waitress sucked (a middle aged blonde woman). She took forever to take our orders because she for some reason assumed we were just getting appetizers even though we never said that. When taking our orders my stepdad said "oh you're starting with me?" Just because I think he wasn't ready and in a rude tone she says "well you're sitting in seat number one so I'm just going by order". She was rarely at our table and spent more time talking with the bartender and who I assume are regulars who were sitting at the bar. When our food came out she said "you also ordered the teres major right?" While setting it in front of me before I said no. She then said "oh yeah, I knew that was wrong before I even said anything" and that she had put my order in wrong. She said she'd have the cooks put a rush on it but you can't really put a rush on a steak. She brought out the sides that go with my dish so I wouldn't be without food but the green beans were incredibly salty and the mashed potatoes were dry and almost cold. When my mom offered to let me have some of her steak for the time being the waitress butted in to say "she does have food coming". When my steak finally came out everyone else was already finished eating but she did bring it out with fresh sides and the mashed potatoes were much better! Granted the texture and appearance was so different from the first ones it really made me wonder just how old those first potatoes were which grossed me out a bit. My steak was delicious and I did get a side of chimichurri which was the best chimichurri I've had in a long time. My sister said the sauce for her seafood linguini was pretty bland but she otherwise enjoyed her dish. My mom also mentioned the teres major was really good. So there were some pluses but we all decided the negatives outweighed the positives. Would not recommend.
