As with any really small town, your dining choices are limited. You could be visiting and have a…read morebad experience be your only experience. We come to Waseca a couple times each month to pick up our chicken feed and supplies. We always go to Oscar's every trip. Everything we've tried has been a hit with us, and we're kind of picky eaters. We usually have customization of the meal, they always get it 100 percent perfect. The prices are extremely affordable, and the portions are ample. A lot of the time, we split a meal. One of our favorite things is the bacon chicken alfredo flatbread. More than enough for two. Lastly, the staff. You can tell this is locally owned, a family effort. They go above and beyond to welcome you, go the extra mile to ensure you enjoy your meal. Ample parking that can handle larger vehicles towing a boat or camper.

I recommend the Philly, it's big enough to share. Also, you should get the chicken tender melt. Sounds pedestrian right? Nope, not here. I don't know what they do, but it's friggin good. Get a side of ranch for sure. And ask for the "flat fries". They are unique and better than any other fry out there. The service is awesome when they aren't too busy, but when they get swamped it suffers a bit. I always get extra pickles, because well, I just do. Their pickles were excellent, they tasted like a sliced clausen. I'll be back, maybe tomorrow.

There's a bar here. It seems to mostly cater to locals/regulars. By no means a touristy spot…read more They can host a pretty large event here, which was what brought me. I don't think I would ever have a reason to come here otherwise - except for maybe bingo night. (btw, that was both serious and sarcastic - I'd never go for a bingo night, but it's probably the most exciting reason to go here if you aren't involved with the Legion). Anyway, back to the event - despite being somewhat run down, the large event room was creatively dressed up to make it seem much much nicer than it otherwise would appear. Strings of lights and cloth were draped across the ceiling, and colored lights were installed in the wall sconces, and fabrics were hung up to hide more unsightly, run-down areas of the event room. It probably took a *lot* of work, but they really made a difference to improve this somewhat less-than-mediocre place. If you plan on hosting an event here, make sure to hire a good decorator! All that being said, there's not many other options when you are in Waseca.

We stopped by on a Saturday as we were looking for a good family lunch spot and the other Yelp…read morereviews were good. The whole experience seemed flustered. The host originally seated us in a space that did not fit our party. Then he moved us to a center spot in a long, family-style table with people on either side of us. We had a five year old with us who was overly tired and very spunky and we had to try to keep her focused on us and not our neighboring patrons. Was really not the most appropriate seating for children but we didn't want to ask for yet another table. Soon after we sat down, we discovered that the parties on both sides of us were upset and looking for any employee so they could express their frustration. Seeing as we were all so close, we could hear them complain to others in their parties about the service. We learned shortly that we should have written up our losses early and moved on. We didn't. We ordered our beverages and immediately got water. The rest (2 soft drinks, an iced tea, and a milk) slowly trickled out one by one. The waiter apologized every single time he came to the table about how slow everything was from us being seated to getting our drinks to him coming to take our order. Once the food came out, he was apologizing again for how long that took. He wasn't wrong. As for the food, it was fine. Portions were average to smallish for the price. It wasn't as special as we had hoped it would be based on the descriptions. We each got something different and all said that we wouldn't order that item again. Not that it was bad. It just wasn't good. The best thing we had was the pretzel stick appetizer. That was pretty good but for the price, we wouldn't order it again. Nothing was super memorable except the decor which was super fun to look at. Oh and the very apologetic waiter. Our food came out hot. Turns out that was not true for the table to our left. The table to our right got the wrong food so half their group was done while the others were just starting. Apparently one of the cooks had called in. So, over all, I gave them an optimistic 3 stars. It was like a participation award with the assumption that if they were firing on all cylinders, it could have been much better. Personally, i wouldn't try them again but as the only Irish pub in the area, it could be a neat happy hour hang out. It just was not a family lunch spot.

Fresh paint, weeding outside, ne upholstery would go along ways to make it more welcoming! Good luck and go for the food if so!
