    The food here was amazing from the appetizer to the main course. There was a live band and the music was great.

    Great spot ! Don't sleep on it Service by Siobhan 5 stars…read more Excellent food and solid spirit/beer selection

    I was excited to check out this local sports bar in Lodi after seeing all of the positive reviews…read more Honestly, it was a little underwhelming for me. Maybe I just ordered the "wrong things". Either way, my experience didn't live up to the hype. I visited on a late Saturday night. There's a parking lot behind the restaurant. The entrance can be tricky to find... It's located in the back on the left-hand side. The exterior and interior are both pretty dark, dull, and dingy. It's not the most inviting atmosphere at first. It has a divey, industrial, and rustic vibe to it, but hey... sometimes the best food comes from places that don't look like much. So I try not to judge. It wasn't too busy, and the service was attentive. The menu has your classic American comfort food - wings, pizza, burgers, sandwiches, etc. They switch it up with daily specials like skirt steak, chicken parm, and pasta. They have a full bar with cocktails, drafts, bottled beers, can ciders, and wines. You can even do a four-beer flight and make it a tasting experience! I ordered: *Dark & Stormy Cocktail [Goslings Dark Rum, Ginger Beer, Lime Juice] ($14) - Not the best one I've had, but it was solid. If you like ginger and rum, this is a must try. The dark rum has hints of caramel which works really well with the spicy ginger beer. The lime juice adds a citrus kick, so it's a really refreshing drink. *Margarita ($18) - As a tequila girly, I've had my fair share of margaritas. This one didn't do it for me. It was a little too sour/tart, which overpowered everything else. *Cubano Sandwich [includes roast pork, black forest ham, swiss cheese, pickles, mayo, and mustard with side of fries] ($16) - I wasn't expecting an authentic Cubano from an American sports bar, so my expectations weren't super high. This was good, but not great. The pork was flavorful, but could've been more tender. I wish there were more pickles and mayo for that extra tangy crunch. The bread was pressed a little too hard, so it was a bit tough to bite through. *Double Blackened Chicken Breast Sandwich [includes pepper jack cheese, chipotle mayo, red peppers, and red onion on brioche with side of fries] ($18) - This was huge and filling! They did not skimp out on the protein. The brioche bun was soft and buttery. The chicken was well seasoned - smoky and savory with crispy charred edges. BUT... to my disappointment, the inside was dry and not juicy at all. Another small issue was the ratio - There was so much chicken compared to the rest of the toppings, so it wasn't the most cohesive sandwich. It really needed more cheese and chipotle mayo to tie all the flavors together. The fries were the best part - thick, crispy, and golden! It's decent bar food, just not the best I've had. Nothing was bad, but nothing was great or memorable. For the price, I didn't feel it was worth it. I do appreciate that their food is served piping hot and fresh. To be fair, this is probably the perfect spot for beer lovers. I happen to not be one, lol. The burger options sound popular and promising too. I'd consider giving them another shot for Happy Hour or to try a burger, but it's not at the top of my list. Just because it's not the sports bar for me, doesn't mean it won't be the one for you.

    Such a dope spot. If you can see I've been here many times over the years as you can tell from the…read moredate in my last review. Came here on my birthday as my first dine-in since covid-19 with my mom and her friend and couldn't be happier yet again. Carla the bartender( she's there during the day usually) was awesome as always and my mom and her friend loved her. Drinks were well done and our food was amazing so props to the chef. We had the mussels with white wine sauce and wings and they were delicious. Pro tip: when you eat the mussels loosen the mussel within the shell spit the shell and dip the mussel and halved shell into the sauce and slurp it in one gulp. You'll thank me later. We all had the wings and they were terrific. Remember half price wings on Wednesday after 6pm. Happy hour was great as well we all had the apple martini which Carla made them nicely balanced not too sweet or weak. Happy hour is 4-7 for $6 apple martinis, cosmos and margaritas. Oh and a juke box. They use to have before covid, comedy open mic nights and karaoke but not sure if they still do but do call and ask. During the day it's mostly locals but at night it livens up with a younger crowd during the weekend. Also Bruna the waitress who came in later around 6 was very sweet as well. Great new hire Nikki. Nikki I'm glad you made it through the pandemic and only hope the best for this place because they do it right from drinks to food and service. You're welcome Yelp and remember be nice to each other and leave a like if this helps.

    Food was excellent service 1st class music old R&R song good time for a night out…read more Service is top shelf...

    THE GOOD ----------------…read more+ Tavern-style menu with plenty of delicious items to choose from + Spacious restaurant with a wrap around bar and multiple dining rooms and private spaces + Friendly demeanor from our waitress + Kids were provided a full box of crayons and Kids Menu to color on + Plenty of angle parking spaces outside, plus a municipal lot behind the restaurant with 40+ spaces THE NOT SO GOOD ---------------------------- - Took about 20-25 minutes for our food to arrive from when we ordered - Never had our water refilled MIXED THOUGHTS --------------------------- = The Food - Twin Door Tavern Burger was supposed to be medium, but was overcooked and on the dry side. It was still OK. Fries were decent + Seafood Mixto was very good with a fair amount of seafood in the dish - Kids Sliders were practically charcoal + Kids Mac and Cheese was pretty decent and not dry RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Crowd was on the older side and seemingly mostly local = Arrived on a Friday at 4:45 PM and the restaurant had about 15-20 people inside at the bar and a few dining already, but plenty of open tables still
