She went for the pan seared salmon (sweet Thai chili, rice noodles, scallion, carrots, crimini mushrooms, snow pea, Fresno peppers and a sesame glaze. I went for the center cut pork chops (bacon balsamic glaze) with brown rice and asparagus. Great location in the middle of town. Big place, but pretty busy all the time. Excellent service (forgot her name, sorry) but definitely a great place to stop if/when you're in the area.

That came up to an extra 1.25. However I didn't get my extra celery or extra blue cheese dressing. The wings were good. I also ordered one each of their desserts. Chocolate chip cake , raspberry cheese cake and Chocolate Cake. Chocolate cake and Raspberry Cake were both delicious. We were too full to eat the chocolate chip cake. Over all good. But the kitchen needs to pay attention to every order. It took about an hour to get the delivery so I never bothered about the celery and dressing missing.

The burger was great, but the fries were the highlight. Reasonable prices and friendly staff! So the next time I was out there for the class, I suggested we go again! We enjoyed it just as much. And the next time I'm out that way, I certainly wouldn't hesitate to go again. Great place to relax, have a meal, some drinks, and hang out with friends!

The food was good, not exceptional but an improvement and there is room for fine tuning. All of the staff were fantastic, like friends. Being on the patio, service was hit or miss as food timing was a bit off like waiting on your sides after the main dish was delivered. Perhaps one or two extra employees were needed for patio only attention. Now here is my one big con that needs to be addressed. The outdoor patio is a great space and could really be a great area. Whomever was responsible for restaurant friendly patio furniture did not do justice to an enjoyable experience of outdoor dining. The tables are wrong with how they are designed. You can't get comfortably close because there isn't much room for your legs with the under structure of the table. The worst choice are the chairs and there needs to be a posted sign...BYOC...Bring Your Own Cushion ! These are the most uncomfortable chairs for a restaurant. And they don't move easily on the bricks. As the patio season is coming to an end this gives you many months ahead to shop and redesign your patio area for the new season. Make it a fun and inviting space rather than a cheap boring uncomfortable backyard!

Absolutely A+, five stars!…read more Edacious is absolutely fantastic! This is a nice place. The food has all been first rate, I went there to get the Smashburger on deal. During happy hour it's 12 bucks and that's a great burger. They have Busch light for $1.50 it's unbelievable. You can do that every weekday, they're not open on Sunday, and save some money. The entrées get up there around $24 and all the ones I've had have been fantastic. today I did the roasted chicken $24, and it was so good I cried. great mushroom flavor & maybe a soy sauce type on the chicken sauté. it was so good. Wow! Next time in, I will try the lamb meatballs. They do the thing where you get the tinned fish of your choice, they have several varieties & they pair that with all the accoutrements it's quite a nice appetizer. It's really a nice restaurant, on the small side so make a rezzie if you feel like it. They have some outdoor seating, I haven't used it, but it's popular. The bartenders are great, Emma, Corryn & Bridget. The chef is a star, maybe they have a couple, anyway the food is great. I had a poutine special last week. My brother loved one of the big salads. You get the idea. Great bourbon selection too. Five stars for a wonderful place, they do a nice job, thanks.

It's a true hidden gem, perfect size, a TV behind the bar, great bourbons, and a menu built for sharing. The portions are just right if you want to order a few different dishes and split them. We're already looking forward to going back, especially to see Emma, she made the whole experience even better, which isn't always easy to find these days. Pro tip: get there early if you want the specials, because they go fast (for good reason). And don't skip the tuna appetizer--we ordered it by accident and were blown away. It's one of those dishes you just have to try for yourself.

A classic, privately owned diner. You don't see many like this anymore. Fast and friendly service, I think we were in and out in about 20 minutes. I love diner burgers with a good sauce, and that's exactly what this place is known for. The burgers probably won't be the best you've ever had, but they are really good. Comparable to Bob's Big Boy only much better quality. When you order a plate, you get your burger (or sandwich) with a ton of fries and what they call a "Shredded Salad." The fries are OK, nothing special. The Shredded Salad is nothing more than the shredded lettuce that they put on the burger topped with some of their signature sauce. I'm not sure how I feel about that. On one hand, it's a simple yet tasty alternative to cole slaw. On the other hand, there's already lettuce and sauce on my burger. Their sauce is pretty awesome, but too much of a good thing can ruin it! Overall though, I'm becoming a big fan of this place. If not for the food, for the atmosphere and service. A nice diner the whole family can enjoy. read more

Not a fan, though they were hot as Hades, which almost pushed this to a 5 star review, but at the end of the day, they were still battered. Fresh cut would have been sooo much better.

Our server was very prompt and courteous. We ordered the walleye sandwich and the perch sandwich. Both sandwiches came with hand cut french fries and coleslaw. Our son ordered the grilled cheese sandwich and tomato basil soup. Our food arrived very promptly. My wife and I both loved the fish and felt that it was one of the best fish sandwiches we've had in a long time. The fries were rather limp and could use some more attention by the kitchen to make them stand out more.
