The fried food, including the chicken strips, was not good at all. The Colossal Burger had a pretty good flavor, but the meat was overcooked, and at $20, it definitely wasn't gourmet quality. Honestly, it felt more like a $12 burger. I ordered the patty melt--the rye bread was good, but that was about it. The burger itself was dry. Unfortunately, the quality just didn't match the prices, and we left disappointed.

We stopped in on a Sunday afternoon and grabbed seats at the bar. Sam was our server and was fantastic, friendly, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the menu. Her recommendations were spot on. The food absolutely did not disappoint. I ordered the Grilled Chicken Taco Salad, and it was enormous! The tortilla shell was so crispy and well-made that it actually held up for leftovers the next day. The jalapeño ranch had the perfect amount of heat and flavor. We also tried the Drunken Chicken Sandwich. Sam recommended getting it breaded, and I'm glad we listened. The homemade breadcrumb coating was light, crispy, and flavorful without being overly thick or salty. For appetizers, we shared the Fried Pork Belly Bites, which were paired with a delicious coleslaw and a sweet Korean-style BBQ sauce, and the Deviled Eggs, which were AMAZING. They came prepared three different ways, making it fun to try each variation. Honestly, I couldn't pick a favorite. Their beer selection was impressive, and I was especially excited to find Crow & Wolf's Dark Wolf Seltzer on tap, one of my favorites and not something you see everywhere. The restaurant was clean, comfortable, and had plenty of character. Even the ladies' restroom had quirky, fun artwork that added a unique touch to the atmosphere. The size and amount of tv's was impressive. If you're looking for a relaxed vibe, great drinks, exceptional service, and food that delivers, I highly recommend checking this place out. We'll definitely be back.

My husband had the hot honey flatbread and he enjoyed it a lot as well. Overall a decent but average meal.

When I got my order, it was loaded with tomatoes and had no avocado at all. That's not just an inconvenience, that's a safety issue. If you're going to offer modifications, especially allergy-related ones, they need to be taken seriously. I will say the food is usually good, which is why this was so frustrating. I'm currently waiting to hear back from them and hoping they make it right, but this definitely needs more attention on their end.

Finally tried this place after months of randomly just driving by. I was actually working just down the street. Amazing!!

I ordered the French Dip, which should be a slam dunk for a pub-style spot, but it lacked the basic execution that makes that sandwich great. The Main Event: French Dip * The Bread: This was the biggest disappointment. It wasn't toasted, grilled, or even brushed with a little butter. It felt like an afterthought, leaving the texture of the sandwich completely uninspired. * The Meat: The tri-tip was sliced thin and seemed okay, though it had that "pre-cooked this morning" vibe rather than being fresh off the block. * The Au Jus: A French Dip lives and dies by the dip. Unfortunately, this was essentially bland beef broth--watery and lacking any deep, salty, or beefy complexity. The Silver Lining The meal wasn't a total wash, thanks to the sides. The fries arrived piping hot, crispy, and seasoned well. Paired with a side of their ranch, they were easily the best part of the plate. Final Verdict: If you're going for the atmosphere and a cold beer, it's a win. But if you're craving a high-quality sandwich, you might want to look elsewhere until they step up their bread game.

She shrimp taco was on the pricier side as well as the ribeye taco. BUT it was authentic and so much flavor. The ribeye was cooked just right! So tender along with the homemade tortillas, such a skill. The sauces were just the final toping that it needed. The food here tastes so authentic and special. The ambiance was good, there was plenty of seating and they did have a bathroom. Which is such a lifesaver if you go with kids. Our bill did come out to a bit over $100, considering we also got a Jarritos, a Coca Cola bottle and a regular drink. However it was worth it.! Specially when you still have food to take home for dinner. We did get lucky with parking and we were able to get a spot right out front, however if you go on a busy day, it'll be quite the walk. But that's the whole point of eating down town, to enjoy with area and have good food.

Paula was an amazing waitress, and Daniel was the musical accompaniment, playing guitar and singing for tips. If he's there, I recommend his Ed Sheeran selection.

I went with the Juju Bleu, Calamity Jane, and Betsy Ross. I'll admit, I'm usually not a fan of bleu cheese, so I'm not sure why I picked the Juju Bleu--but I'm glad I did. It was surprisingly delicious. The Betsy Ross was solid and classic, with Thousand Island sauce--tasty, though nothing particularly standout. The Calamity Jane was the clear winner for me; the combination of sautéed onions, barbecue sauce, and mushrooms was absolutely spot-on. We also upgraded our side to clam chowder. It had great flavor, though it was a bit thicker than I prefer--not a dealbreaker by any means. Service really made the experience shine. Paula was phenomenal--attentive, friendly, and quick to check in on us and keep everything running smoothly. Overall, this is a great spot for lunch with friends or coworkers. Since it's right on Main Street, parking can be a bit tricky, so I'd recommend using a nearby public lot and taking a short walk over.

I don't come down anymore cause I'm not one for the local bar scene next door, nor the bar scene within this location towards the back. Plus the parking is atrocious down this part of main. But I do get it delivered and it's never disappointed. My burger always comes hot and fresh, the meat still steaming, the cheese nice and melted and the bun a pillow and soft brioche. You can add whatever you want to your burger with an added surcharge for bacon, egg and some other items. But all the veg is free! Don't sleep on the (Stacked) Sauce, it's the house made sauce that's tangy, spicy and flavorful! Do be warned, it does have a kick! But if you like a little spicy, then it's gonna win you over! Crinkle fries are my "go-to" especially with the Stacked sauce. They have other options like onion rings, curly fries, cheese curds and so on. All look like great options but they definitely are more expensive through delivery around $7 to $8 dollars. Would love to see some shakes out of this place, hopefully one day. You can get a full combo for around $18 and that for the double. Trust me when I say, the burgers are huge! They will fill you up with a single, but if you're really hungry go double! The double is a monster! I called cause I forgot to add my sauces the other day and the girl who answered the phone was so sweet and understanding. She didn't have to help me out but she did and added them to my bag, huge win for that! Truly appreciate this place for the consistency and the quality.

This was not the experience we were expecting when we ordered delivery the other night from them…read more We got a Bowl of Creamy Potato Cheese Soup, slice of Key Lime Pie and a slice of Lemon Cream Cheese pie; $27 dollars not including tip. The Soup was just ok. Lacked flavor, potatoes were non existent and it arrived lukewarm "but that's the delivery drivers fault". For $11.49 we expected better. Key Lime Pie: it was "ok" but the whipped cream tasted warm and the pie was borderline warm as well. Must've been put next to the hot soup. Which in my mind "why?" It's cold pie. Should I not have eaten it, yeah. Did I eat it anyway? Well it was an $8 slice of pie! So yes, I'm going to eat it! It was also small for the price as well. You get a bigger slice of cheesecake at their competitor for around the same price. Lemon Cream Cheese Pie: doesn't come with whip cream "unless you pay for it". That slice of pie was also $8. How does the key lime come with whip but you pay extra for this one!? The picture shows the whip on it which looks good, but doesn't give you an option to pay for it either. The flavor was just ok. Delivery was atrocious! The guy took forever to get there, then took forever to get to our place. It was overall a bad experience all the way around. Thankful I didn't pay the $13 for an order of mozzarella sticks. Overall: what happened to this spot? I know these restaurants are becoming non existent in our small towns and we wanna come try them out. But when you're charging this much and not getting the quality you deserve, well it makes me not wanna come back. Which sucks cause I love a good slice of pie. But not a small slice for $8 that I gotta pay extra for whip lol.
