This is one of those local neighborhood restaurants that keeps us coming back. The food is…read moreconsistently good, the service is always friendly, and the atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. If you stop by, I highly recommend the taco salad and the beef sandwich--both are absolutely delicious! And if you're lucky enough to sit at the bar, Joe is one of the friendliest bartenders around. He makes everyone feel welcome and adds to the great experience. If you're looking for a great local spot with good food, good service, and friendly people, this is definitely worth a visit!

The first time a friend and I stopped in, the bartender blatantly overcharged is on everything and then refused to refund our debit card 6, rather refunding cash. There's nothing like trying to run fraud she's on new customers. Tonight, my son and I stopped in. There were only 3 customers at the bar when we sat down, but the bartender was far more interested in talking to 1 of them than addressing us. FYI, it was a less than professional conversation, leaning in much more intimately. When she was done with her chat, she proceeded to the kitchen to hang out for a couple minutes, only popping out to glare at us again while on the phone. Finally, after a couple more minutes with no sign of our bartender, we left. This place offers mediocre food (on a good day) and a pathetic beer selection. While I am all to happy to patronize a local establishment, even with subpar offerings, I'm not going to pay for such pathetic service. Take your money elsewhere. There are many far better establishments who value their customers, all within 5-10 minutes drive. Keep driving when you see the sign for The Sportsman.

Family friendly restaurant serving up American cuisine and craft cocktails in a casual, relaxed…read moreatmosphere. The servers were friendly, attentive, and accommodating. I ordered an American staple, a burger with fries. The burger was juicy, well seasoned, and topped with crispy bacon. The bun was soft and held everything together without falling apart. The fries were crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and paired well with the burger. A great spot for a laid-back meal with family or friends.

Culinary Misfits should not be confused with Culinary Dropout, as their food and drinks are…read moredifferent, though the prices are similar. This cute restaurant is located in Crown Point, IN, and it's best to use GPS to avoid getting lost. The venue is nice and perfect for photos, with plenty of space. The bar has a lively atmosphere, and the food is good, with large portions. I ordered the Classic Smashburger and substituted the protein for an Impossible Burger. I expected to receive two patties since I had to pay an additional $4.00. While it's my choice to be a pescatarian, I still think that an extra $4.00 for a single patty is excessive, both here and at any restaurant. This brought the price of my burger from $18.00 to $22.00, which reflects the current costs of dining out. Overall, our server was really nice and accommodating. She was patient with us as we decided on what to order and even shared her favorite dishes, which helped us make our decisions. The others in my party ordered a Mushroom & Swiss Smashburger and a Tuscan Turkey Sandwich. I must say, the turkey sandwich (Shaved Oven Roasted Turkey) had so much turkey on it that it could have fed us for Thanksgiving, but we weren't complaining! It was generous, and she happily took home the leftovers. The drink we had was blah, it had peach deep eddy's, elderflower liqueur (which I love), citrus and a few other ingredients. I'll pass on that the next time, I think it had too much elderflower and not enough peach. We all enjoyed our food and the ambiance of the restaurant. We will definitely return when we are in the area, and I will be sure to recommend this place to my friends who live nearby. I would also consider throwing a small b-day celebration upstairs in the lounge. Thank you, Culinary Misfits, for a great lunch!

I honestly do not have much to share about this venue. I was there for almost 2hrs and didnt have…read moreanything to eat or drink. I showed up to a friends birthday/karaoke party. It started at 7pm. I arrived closer to 8pm. There were people there, and as the hour progressed more and more people showed up. I assumed the singing and such would have started on time. But when I left after 9pm... no singing had begun. When Inarrived a server asked did I want a menu, I said yes. But she never returned. So I sat drink less, food less. This making up in my mind I wouldnt be staying long. The place was rather spacious, clean, looked like a good time would be had(on another occassion). I actually want to go back one day and have SOME SORT of experience. It was a cozy spot. Pizza and wings. People were complaining about their drinks... but it was nothing I could personally give a tip or judgment on or about... no one ever served me. *shrug*

What to say 'bout Jack's.... I was "Benchwarmers" Years…read moreago... ahhh memories. Anyway, Jack's is a great little place with daily drink specials and an awesome set of cooks in back. Bartenders are frickin' awesome, and hook you up right. The beer is always cold and the mixed drinks are normally on point, sometimes a bit strong though but, who minds THAT? Food to get: Irish Nachos - Ho-Ly Jesus, talk about a loaded plate! Feeds at least 2 people. Pizza - one size one price 14" for $10.00 and pretty darn good. Jack Burger or Mini's - 'tis tasty, hot, juicy and delicious. What's cool: Svedka Pitchers - they're all good flavored pitchers but the lemonade one's my fave. Trivia on Mondays - always a decent crowd gettin' their knowledge on. Stuff to do: Pool (billiards if you prefer), Darts, Karaoke on occasion too. Aww man...: This may be a "woohoo" for some(not I). It's Illinois so you gotta smoke OUTSIDE. Mens room... meh, it's a mens room, it's kinda dirty(ish) but has soap 'n water. Beer - yup... this bar has beer. Needs to add some local brews though, just sayin' This bar is kinda like Cheers... become a regular and it's "Where everybody knows your name..." except that one guy...

But I do have a question: What steroids are they feeding the lake perch to produce 8 inch fillets? I know of no other restaurant in the midwest that has perch this large.

We thought we would have to wait till we drove to Chicago for good food. This place is welcoming, charming and modern. I ordered the sea bass with vodka pasta and my husband the lamb lollipop with roasted potatos. Both were 10/10. We are very picky and self proclaimed foodies. For dessert we shared the tiramisu. It was good. 9/10 for small size and a tiny bit dry. The flavors were well balanced though. We sat on the Fiori side but had a choice of sitting on either side and can order from both menus. What a great concept.
