I really like the European vibe of this place right here in IN. It was a little nostalgic, feeling…read morelike you stepped into a little café in Paris. They had a special for the day. Lobster quesadilla! Yes, please! Lobster quesadillas in a quaint little town-I'm impressed! The flavor of this did not disappoint either. It was very tasty! At first glance, I was concerned because the filling was very minimal. It was very very flavorful and definitely enough lobster filling. The pico was extremely fresh and I've enjoyed having the peppers and jalapeños in it. it was not too spicy, it was just right. I also did the up charge and got the Tom Thai soup. They asked if I wanted crackers or bread. I was thinking is that a question? I very cheerfully stated, "I will take the bread!" Even though the bread did not have a lot of flavor, it was fresh, warm and very comforting to eat. This will definitely be a new place I will be stopping at any time I'm in the area. The only reason for the four star is, I also ordered an unsweet tea and they forgot to put it in my bag. (All drinks are bottled-no fountain drinks) therefore, I had to turn around and go back and get it. Thankfully, I was only a few blocks away when I noticed it was not in my bag.

Walking up to this place we knew we'd love it. If we lived in town it would 100% be our go-to bar and we'd be regulars. We only order mozzarella sticks because of time restriction but they were amazing. Piping hot when we got them. We sat at the bar, and Rachel asked us how we were doing and was so social. People, this girl wasn't even on the clock. I saw her with her family and she noticed the bar getting into the weeds like most bars do on the weekends and she jumped behind the bar and quickly caught up the dishes and took a couple orders. Not to shame our original bartender...she was excellent and knowledgeable!! I absolutely think you're missing an opportunity for a great time if you don't come here.

We stopped in with a small group (11 of us) around 7:00p on a Friday and secured the last two tables available. The service was a tad slow from the get-go but when our waitress came around for drink orders it was firing it all cylinders! (I wish I could remember her name but she did say her sister owns the place) She was an absolute pro and took care of everything we could've asked for without hesitation. She was a treat! Oh, and I feel like she created their POS system b/c she knew how to make that thing bend to her will! The menu seems small but it is packed with all kinds of things that anyone would be able to find something. I went with the Mango Habanero wings and they were delicious! Someone else went with the Home Run sandwich and raved about it. Needless to say, everyone was more than happy with their orders! The dining room was also a pleasant experience. Not quiet but also not loud, the perfect amount of ambiance to feel like a typical sports bar (with more restaurant feel than bar). There are ample tables of all sizes and plenty of TVs, plus a jukebox (which was turned off for "dinner time", which was perfect). We absolutely loved our experience at Rugie's and cannot wait to return again next time we're in the area.
