It can get pretty busy, though, so if you're planning to bring a larger group, I'd recommend visiting during non-peak hours. One of our favorite things is their great pricing on buckets of Sun Cruisers, and we love that you can mix and match the flavors instead of being limited to just one. It's a small touch that makes the experience even better. If you order the wings, don't skip the signature sauce. We've become huge fans of it, and it's one of the reasons we keep coming back. Overall, it's a great spot to grab a drink, catch up with friends, and enjoy the patio. Next on our list is trying the giant pretzel, which is served with your choice of queso or mustard. Looking forward to giving that a try on our next visit!

Open, lively, people talking, drinks flowing, but still relaxed enough to sit and take your time. Easy place to wind down. Staff was super friendly. I ordered the Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich. Fried chicken, blue cheese slaw, horseradish pickles on a toasted brioche bun. When it came out, I could already tell it was gonna be good. The chicken had that deep golden crust, crispy all around. First bite had that crunch, then the heat kicked in right after. Not overwhelming, just enough to wake everything up. There's a little sweetness in there too that balances it out, so it doesn't hit too hard. The slaw cools it down, adds a little tang, and the pickles bring that sharp bite that cuts through everything. The bun holds it all together without getting in the way. Messy in a good way. Every bite was packed. Honestly, just a solid sandwich all around.

Caesar salad was really pretty boring. The dressing could've been much better. Just very boring. The pretzel bites we had beforehand were...interesting.

I always order the Cuban when a new restaurant has one on the menu, and Big Lug's did not disappoint. It was juicy, flavorful, and one of the better Cubans I've had in a while. On my second visit, I went with the blackened cod tacos on corn tortillas (you can also get flour tortillas, and they offer shrimp and breaded fish options). They were fresh, perfectly seasoned, and absolutely delicious. Both visits I ordered the spicy garlic cauliflower, and it was outstanding. The homemade blue cheese dressing took it to another level. If you're on the fence about ordering it, don't be--it was one of my favorite things on the menu. The outdoor walk-up bar creates a really cool, laid-back atmosphere, making it a great place to relax whether you're meeting friends or just enjoying a meal by yourself. The staff was friendly, the service was excellent, and both meals came out quickly. I don't usually eat at the same restaurant twice on a trip, but Big Lug earned it. If I'm back in the area, it'll definitely be on my list again.

Big Lug is a very cool spot right off the Monon, and even better if you have a pooch with you!…read moreUnfortunately, our experience with the service was pretty disappointing. We sat right in the middle of the main thoroughfare and were completely ignored for at least 15 minutes before we finally flagged someone down. The guy, "H," apologized and said, "Oh, my bad--it's all good." We figured, no big deal, let's move on. We ordered pretty simple food, apps and were then going to put in some entrees once apps arrived. We asked for waters and a water bowl for our pups. He brought two waters--with no straws--and no dog bowl. We assumed he was going to grab the bowl, so we waited... and waited. Then I noticed him at the end of the bar leaning against some boxes, texting. So I finally got up, interrupted him and asked for the dog bowl. His response, "oh my bad." Our appetizers came out, and naturally, we asked for silverware. A few minutes later, I spotted "H" in the corner on his phone again. At that point I was thinking, seriously?! So I got up again, interrupted "H's" text convo and asked for silverware. His response again was, "Oh, my bad." I didn't respond to him I just turned around and went back to my seat. Honestly, the whole experience started feeling more like a self-serve restaurant than table service. It's a chill spot and we weren't being needy whatsoever. We never asked for any refills- we were merely asking for the basics. We wanted to order more food, but by that point we were pretty turned off and decided to just get the check. Then came the final straw: my guy had his license and credit card sitting on the table because he hadn't brought his wallet out for our monon trek. When "H" came back with the checkout thing, without question or hesitation - he grabbed the card and swiped it. We didn't even realize what happened until afterward. Maybe that's standard there, but I've never had a server just take my card without asking. Usually you get a "hey do we want to use this card? Or something to confirm. And of course the tip structure is skewed so the min is 20% unless you want to try to figure out to manually enter in 15% (which most ppl don't -incl my guy), so we left 20% and left irritated and still hungry. "H" didn't seem hungover or anything--he just genuinely seemed like he did not not give a shiiiit. We had to get up three separate times to get things we had already requested: the dog bowl, a couple straws, and silverware. (Basics) And a quick note on the 7-Layer Hoss Dip: don't expect seven layers. It comes in a small thick ceramic bowl and was basically beans, guacamole, a tiny bit of corn and some hard cheese on top. Definitely would not recommend it. Way too "beany" and not worth $16 at all. The southwest rolls were decent- very fried tho. Cheesecake Factory's are better ;) The location and dog-friendly atmosphere are great, with the exception of the homeless camp right at their patio entrance, but unfortunately, the service really took away from the experience. Hopefully this was just an off night, because Big Lug has a lot going for it.

Drinks: 5/5 Food: 3/5…read moreService: 2/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Danny Boy is located inside the beautiful Village of West Clay. This was my third time here, but first time ordering any food. Their beer and cocktails are crisp and carefully crafted. The food, however, was not spectacular. We ordered the breadsticks with nacho cheese (overcooked), traditional wings (teriyaki & hot honey garlic - saucy, decent), 1 beef taco (meh), & a single smash burger with an upgraded side of tater tots. Everything was all about the same - nothing special, respectfully. The smash burger was not a traditional smash burger. It also looked and tasted exactly like a burger from Burger King. All 3 times I have been to Danny Boy, it seems the place is being run by 1-3 workers, which makes for very slow ordering and wait times. This day, 2 tables left before ordering drinks due to the long wait. Overall, Danny Boy is a great place to stop for an evening drink to catch up with friends. I, however, would not recommend the food.

I had the Caprese pizza on the gluten-free cauliflower crust and it was delicious. The pizza trays are HOT, so the staff carries them. If you've never been, you order at the counter, get a buzzer, and when your food is ready they provide plates and utensils and walk the pizza back to your table with you. There was a torrential downpour about two bites into my pizza, so we quickly moved under the covered patio. They also had live music, which added to the laid-back vibe. I'll definitely be back!
