Absolutely ridiculous experience. Waiting 2 1/2 hours for tacos is beyond unacceptable. What made…read moreit even worse was watching people who ordered after me get their food while I was completely ignored. No updates, no apology, no urgency whatsoever. If your kitchen is that backed up, stop taking orders or at least communicate with customers instead of wasting their entire night. I've honestly never experienced service this bad over something as simple as tacos. The food could be amazing and it still wouldn't justify the disaster of a wait time and complete lack of organization. Save yourself the frustration and go somewhere that actually respects your time.

We each selected a beer and ordered the Western Burger, which is a six-ounce patty. He added fries and I had some good slaw. We agreed, the burgers were OK, not great. To start with they use beef that is too lean. The burgers were on the dry side. The main issue is that they are not seasoned and have no grill crust. You know they are beef because you can see it and the texture says beef, but beyond that they really have no flavor. This was a "just OK" experience for both of us. We will have to keep looking for a great burger in Ames. These were not remarkable.

She gave us menus n sent us upstairs as we wanted to sit outside. The waitress upstairs was chatting with a co worker sitting at the bar, told us to sit anywhere but a dirty table she hadn't cleared yet. She came over took our drink order then cleared a table before bringing our drink. Then after awhile took our food order ( steak quesadilla n artichoke dip off the happy hour). She didn't ask if we wanted it off HAppy hour or main...... hostess from downstairs. Rough foid up. Our server upstairs is still chatting with coworker at bar. We are almost done eating n server from upstairs ask if we need anything. We said napkins.. she brought them over n left. After finishing our food 15 minutes go by she finally asks if we need a drink . We said no just the bill. Our bill is not happy hour prices on food just drink. She comes over to collect $, we asked about why we are charged so much for our food as we ordered off the happy hour. She said "oh I didn't know. " not - oh I forgot to ask or anything.... No I'm sorry or dang- I'll take it off. Wtf is wrong with her? Terrible n I will post this everywhere .

The real scoop: My sister and her girlfriends booked a large reservation for our group and they were not prepared at all when we showed up. Not enough tables, not enough seats, it was messy. We ordered drinks, they staggered out. Mine was wrong, came out as a mule instead of a martini, the girl corrected it. My husband and I split the dip trio and the hot chicken sandwich for dinner with tots. (The photo of the onion rings is what my dad ordered as an app) The sandwich was unbearingly messy with sauce all over the place. We ended up picking it apart and eating it with a fork. Service was all over the place and I felt bad for the main girl serving us because the girl helping her could not be more unfriendly/helpful to her. I'm about 99% I wouldn't return here because I have no reason to go back to Ames. This place has potential but my sister and her friends said service and consistency here is an issue and that's obvious big time.
