Powercat has been a staple location in the area for years. We got into the restaurant right before close and they served us promptly and were very nice. The beer came in great big glasses and were chilled. Food was delicious! I highly recommend the wings. read more

Bartender was distracted, more interested in visiting w her coworkers as opposed to her customer's needs.

Came into town with K Stater to check out a venue. Stopped here for lunch on Saturday. Very neat place. Service was odd to non-existent. Started fine but she never came back around and the staff just huddled in the back corner. Meat pizza did its job but just average. Boneless wings appeared to be from a bag and just not great considering they were $13 for 9 and some chips. I likely wouldn't return. read more

I was excited to go and the atmosphere was great with a lot of K-State memories. Although our waitress was pleasant, she could have been more attentive as we both had empty water and were never offered more. My Reuben was unique with three meats but it was pretty mushy and the bread was soggy like they didn't drain the sauerkraut. Sweet potato fries (I requested extra crispy) were done well. read more

Disappointed in the customer service. They forgot our order, got us most of our food after 1 hr 20 min. with the excuse that the kitchen was busy. Never got the appetizer. We watched other tables who came in after us get their food. The wait staff offered nothing other than the apology. The whole experience might not have stung so bad with the offer of a free meal (we had 6 meals) or free beverages (we weren't drinking alcohol). Empowering the staff to make decisions gives them the chance to resolve problems and help customers like us not feel so disappointed. read more

I'm a long time customer of Powercat. Today I paid my bill with a $100 bill. My bill was $23.57. When I gave it to the waitress I asked if they would take a $100 bill. She said yes and brought back $20. They insist I gave them a $20 bill and asked for change. Why would I give them a $20 bill and ask for change? As a final insult they demanded I pay my $23,57 bill. I paid the bill but I won't be going back again. I lost $80. They lost a frequent customer. I'm disappointed for both of us. read more

The food here was really good! The ambiance was great... perfect for a game day that's not in Aggieville! The service was wonderful as well! read more

This makes 3 unsatisfactory experiences in a row. Why do I even go? It's a group and convenience. After burning our pizza first visit, yucky doughy wings 2nd visit, this time the food to table took a long time as they burned my Cat Town Quesadilla. If you must eat here try to order something that doesn't require cooking so they can't BURN IT! read more

Swung in for a quick drink on the way to a game. Bartender was was quick, attentive and friendly. We asked about the food and she said it was good so after our game we came in for dinner. It was packed inside so we opted to sit on the patio. Food was good. Burgers. Pizza, Ruben and Pasta. Again great friendly service.Only suggestion I could offer would be fly zappers on the patio as they are rampant once you are served. read more

Hit this spot for lunch, it wasn't super busy so we got a booth right away. Waitress was prompt and got everything correct. My wife had the waygu sarsaparilla burger and said it was cooked perfectly and very tasty. I had the Cajun blackened shrimp tacos with a side of chips and queso. My shrimp were a little over done and the queso didn't have a lot of flavor. Overall, it's a good place. Everything was clean and organized. Looked like they have drink specials for each day of the week, so the wife and I will probably hit this place up again for dinner. read more

Came looking to watch game 7 of the Stanley Cup and the final round of the College World Series to find rerun football games on the main tv and car race on two others. Eventually they moved the College World Series to a larger TV but it's hard to be a sports bar if you don't know what big games are on. The food was meh. I had chicken wings, which were large but lacked flavor - I had mango habanero. Also had a side salad, which was fine. If this is the best sports bar in Manhattan, someone needs to open a sports bar. read more

Dude.... dudes and dudettes burgers are made fresh. They don't fit the bun. Cheese potatoes, cheesy potatoes, cheesy potatoes!!!!!! So good! Totally shareable Very simple menu. They have GF buns. Super good for what it was. We will come back. read more

Decent service, terrible food. Order 6pc buffalo wings, bacon cheese burger, jalapeno popper burger, both had onion rings. No salt on anything. Bread soggy on burgers. Cream cheese was smeared on the burger patty so everything slid off. Had to eat it with knife & fork. The 'beer battered' jalapenos tasted burnt but were soon soggy like the bottom of the bun. We ate about half of our food, left the rest. Still tipped server $20 on a $58 ticket. Won't return. read more

The burger was good but seemed to be missing something. The fries lackluster and the toppings for loaded fries was just too much - don't recommend. read more

Its a great place to hit up after a game if you're avoiding aggieville. Food is great with big portions.

I stopped on Saturday around noon for a cool drink and the young lady behind the bar was absolutely delightful and made me feel right at home. The frosty cold mug was absolutely perfect. The ballpark fries were delicious. Look forward to going back. read more

Local to powercat and they have exceptional service and great food! I usually have been calling in and ordering curbside due to COVID- I personally choose to take out as oppose of dining it. I have tried 3 different burgers/ on separate occasions The nachos/ and the wings! All have been good, as well as their sweet potato fries! read more

Ignore the 1-2* reviews. They all seem to be from 4-5 years ago and they probably have changed ownership or management or whatever that this place has gone beyond that. Brass Tacks: This is the best bar/grill I have been to in a loooong time. Maybe ever. The flavors of the food and burgers is just doing it extra enough that it's a level up on anywhere else I've been. jalapeño burger was great. getting loaded fries was delicious as fries stayed crispy to the table despite being covered with cheese, the loaded Mac n cheese was KILLER, and the fired pickles with jalapeño ranch was sooo delicious. This is not a biased review and I don't know the owners and I'm NOT a KSU fan but Powercat Sportsgrill will definitely make my next trip to Manhattan well worth it! read more

We were visiting from out of town and are so happy to have stumbled across Powercat Sports Grill!! Our waitress was super attentive and friendly and we got our food relatively quickly! Very spacious bar & grill with lots of seating at the bar and around the restaurant. We opted for a few drinks, minus myself as I was the one driving, as well as crispy green bean fries for an appetizer. Waitress recommended pairing the jalapeño ranch with them, and it was the perfect duo providing the crispy green beans with a slight spicy kick! All of our entrees were top-notch as well! The pasta salad as a side was completely different than expected but by far better than a traditional take on the dish. The burgers were also huge and very filling with amazing taste! Definitely a must stop! read more

Pizza was very undercooked, it looks like it was put on high broil and all you can taste was the burnt cheese. Place is nice however and service is very good. read more

Favorite place in town, they by far have the best food and friendliest staff! No wonder they're so busy on the weekends!

First time to Powercat and I had actually heard decent things about it. They have every sport playing so if you like watch curling and getting your eat on this is your place. We went at 7:45pm on a Friday and there was a decent crowd most the booths were full but tables were empty. I really liked my salmon which is why I gave this place 2 stars. I got the blackberry salmon salad and it was cooked well with ample toppings. My partner got the supreme pizza which did not look like anything special and he said was just okay. You'd be much better off going to AJ's for pizza (much faster too.) Most entrees were $10-15. What I didn't like was the wait and lack of a manager checking on tables and orders. We got our drinks and ordered our appetizer but then didn't see our waitress again until our appetizer was ready. We could see her standing by the kitchen. There was a couple seated near us who got up and left because it took so long to get their drinks. It seemed like the waitstaff also pulled double duty as hostess so there wasn't always someone by the door. It was by no means what i would qualify as busy. Once we finally put our order in, we were told twenty minutes later that the pizza was burnt and had to be recooked. We had to ask for my meal which probably would have just sat under the warmer the whole time. Thank goodness we got an appetizer. At this point I would expect a manager to come check in us as we had our order messed up and have been at the restaurant for an hour without getting our meals. For a place that serves pizza even personal size don't expect it to be quick. I think if management was more checked in and circulated more we would have had a better experience, they would have insured people had drinks, waitstaff was being timely and we would have felt valued as customers. I doubt they even knew how long we had been sitting there or that our order had a major error. No effort was made to discount check and we were even charged $.25 for asking for our jalapeños on the side of the nachos (appetizer) when it comes with it - classy! Unfortunately, this was our first time and most likely our last time at Powercat. Come for the sports but don't come here for good customer service. read more

We waited one hour and thirty minutes for our reserved tables that they "forgot" to put down for the night. we received confirmation emails, after making the reservation on the phone since it was a large group. once we finally were seated, the service was slow. not refilling water when we were pouring from pitchers ourselves. appetizers taking around 20 minutes to arrive after the 20 minute wait to order. taking our order for a helmet sampler, they didn't inform us they were out of chips but still charged for two full apps. it took maybe 2 mins after the appetizers our entrees came out giving us no time to eat our starters. the mac n cheese side was tasteless, chicken wasn't cooked all the way, and took forever for ranch. then took another 20 mins after all of us finishing our food to receive our checks which were not split correctly and no boxes were offered. read more

Great food and drinks! The restaurant is clean and the service was extremely friendly.

Came in with the lady for some lunch. Ordered Midwest Pork T Sandwich. Went for the fried green beans on the side. Really liked the layout. Sports bar done right. Lots of screen, a variety of seating types, and full bar. My Sandwich comes out and I'm a little let down on the size of the tenderloin. big enough to cover the bun but I'm use to bun buster ones. Overall the flavor is was good and the meat flavorful. What really knocked my socks off were the fried green beans. Long fresh beans fried with onions and seasoning. Great flavor. The Good Nice location Full Bar Friendly Service Great Beans The Bad Pork T was small in my book but flavor was there. The Ugly Nada this place is A-OK. read more

BOLD. One word to describe this restaurant. Everything designed in this place makes sense and draws your eyes to it. The TV's are placed where you'll see one at any spot you decide to sit at. The menu's are something I've never seen done. It's setup like a calendar. The food takes your traditional bar food but adds some twist to make it different. I ordered the Hawaiian Pit Master Burger. A burger that has smoked ham and pineapple added to it. It's HUGE. Fries were really good. Only small complaint is our waitress rarely came by and didn't refill our drinks until towards the end of our service. Price is just what you would expect to pay. We will definitely coming back here each game day we visit Manhattan. I just wished something like this was in Wichita. read more

Have been here a number of times and have learned a few things. First, the fried green beans are awesome! Everyone should try them. They have a ton of TVs and you can watch every game being played at the same time. Unfortunately, when they get busy the quality of the food and attention to detail suffers. Easy things like dressing on the side are overlooked and the salmon isn't cooked evenly. The vegetable side will be hot and the rice is cold. It's a great place to grab a beer with friends but don't bring someone you want to impress here for dinner. read more

Caila was our bartender and server. Drinks were great and she did a really good job of tending to us! An absolute sweetheart and we had a phenomenal time thanks to her! read more

Great restaurant/sports bar with a fun atmosphere. Love the sautéed green beans and their burgers - especially the mushroom Swiss burger, or the burger served with the fried egg! Worth the wait and the service is very good. read more

Tried the pizza tonight and I can honestly say it's the best pizza in Manhattan... in the state of Kansas... the best pizza in the Midwest! We ordered online for curbside pickup. The service was fast and friendly and the pizza was cooked perfectly. We will definitely be back for dine in soon! read more

I ordered the Buffalo wings. The wings were very large, tender, and well seasoned. The food was closer to a 4-5 star experience. Unfortunately, the prices on the menu and on the website were not the same and the price I was actually charged was higher than both. This business does not offer a military discount. $25 for 12 wings and fries is more than I would pay in the future. read more

My roommate and her boyfriend came here this weekend and ordered a burger and boneless wings, they came in okay timing but my roommate ate a whole boneless wing, thought it tasted funny and cut into the second one to find it was raw! Totally disgusting and inexcusable mistake. She felt sick for the rest of the night, ruined our evening plans. The waitress was apologetic and comped her meal, but the worst part is they still made them pay for the burger! They could be reported to the health department for this kind of violation and didn't even have the decency to comp the entire meal, offer free drinks, or anything. I will never go here, friends will never go back and hope no one else goes here, for their own safety. read more

Worst experience ever!!! As a K-state alum we come to Manhattan frequently. We decided to try this place out for the first time. We were seated quickly and were optimistic for a great experience. This quickly deteriorated. Once seated we were visibly ignored by 3 servers for More than 15 min with a toddler. After a 10 top was set and immediately offered drinks I asked the hostess who our server was. She went and visibly asked 3 servers who seemed annoyed with her for inquiring. After which we decided to leave as no one still seemed to be headed our way. This was such a disappointment. read more

I came here for the first time about a month ago and absolutely loved it! I got the salmon and my husband got the Cajun pasta and it was amazing and so was our server but we came in on Sunday and I wish I could say the same. My fruit cup was mostly spoiled fruit and my husband ordered a $35 steak which was very pricy but we figured it was probably worth it. When I say that was the worst steak I've ever had before I mean it, it was extremely chewy and tough. Never going back. read more

Walked in at 1110am with my wife. Only one other table had guests and an older couple walked in behind us. We told front desk we were just stopping in for a quick drink for Cinco de Mayo. We were seated quickly, our server took our drink order and offered waters and appetizers. We told him we just wanted a quick drink and declined waters and appetizers. I asked if any specials for the Holiday, our server said he didn't think so but would ask bartender. He returned saying no specials for Cinco de Mayo, so we ordered double margaritas since we only had time for one drink. Drink order was promptly taken to the bartender. I watched as she took almost 10 minutes to start pouring our drinks, she had not poured any other between the time our order was taken to the bar and when she started pouring ours. I watched and counted 3 second pours in each of our glasses. Wait a minute, I thought we ordered doubles? I watched as she sluggishly poured the margarita mix and the drink wasn't even blended yet. Well, we were in a hurry, I didn't feel like getting charged for doubles when the bartender clearly poured single shot margaritas and glanced across the room to our server were ignored as he chatted with the other idle servers. My wife and I were wondering why it was taking so long as we glanced across the room at our server standing around an empty table with 4 other servers. Hmmm, he couldn't ask bartender for the drinks? We had told him and the hostess we were stopping in quick for a drink, doubles at that. Oh, did I mention the older couple sat at booth next to ours had still not received waters or drinks to their table at this time? I decided I didn't have time for that bologna not wanted to deal with sending back the single shot margaritas when I clearly asked for doubles. I told my wife enough is enough and we left. This was about 18 minutes into the order and the drinks were still not ready. Slow bar, unattentive service, wrong drink order or at least terribly small pours, no specials. 1 star. I won't go back. I'm currently at Umi's for a $2.95 Margarita special all day Sunday. read more

First off, I'm a wildcat. I even finished school. But straight up, this place kind of sucks. It's overpriced to start off with, the food wasn't anything to write home about, and the vibe inside wasn't that great. I ordered a dish, I was there with another and they did as well, then the server talked us into trying a pizza... which again was not impressive. We each had a drink, and I had another beer. I got the bill and knew I had just gotten honey potted. I yelled EMAWGAWD!!!! (not in a good way) Straight up, this place kind of sucks. read more

If you want a great burger, don't be fooled by the name Wagyu or the hefty price tag. It's still ground from what's trimmed off all the great cuts of beef, the leftovers, the waste! Unless it's ground from whole rounds or rumps or sirloins, trimmings will always taste like trimmings, stringy & flavorless, just like our burgers were Friday night! And when we both order similar burgers, & one is under 1/2" thick and overcooked & the other is almost an inch thick and under cooked so much the bun is bloody, there's a huge lack of consistency under the cooks hands, both in making the patties and in grilling them. Lucky I like rare beef or mine would of gone back to the kitchen! I raised quality beef for over 40 years and marketing these burgers as premium beef is an embarrassment and disservice to Beef breeders, specifically Wagyu breeders, who've worked hard to develop a prime beef animal. If your going to serve Wagyu, at least offer a filet or KC strip so your customers get what they deserve, an awesome cut of beef! read more
