    Royal Reagle Sandwich
    Derek J.

    Service was good and atmosphere was good. The food was sub par. I ordered the Royal Reagle sandwich which used to be one of the best sandwiches in the area. However, it is no longer oven roasted. They basically throw super thin slices of meat on a griddle then put them on a bun. The meat was very greasy and very chewey. I would definitley not order this sandwich in the future and would think really hard before coming back. It's a shame because it used to be very good.

    The bar/restaurant has a closed in outdoor patio and inside seating options. We went on a pretty hot day and it was still pretty sweaty out on the patio. Not that they can control the outside temp , but they didnt have all the possible fans going , so we eventually moved inside to eat. Our server was very nice and flexible to let us move to inside seating. The food was okay. They had your typically bar food .

    Bottom of pickle chips....so greasy
    Sheri B.

    Had not been to Ropers in a bit, so we stopped in on a recent Sunday evening. We were greeted and seated promptly and sat in the bar area. We placed an order for the pickle chips and went back to the menu to select our dinners. Initially placed ordered for brick oven grilled sandwiches, but the oven was down so we went to second choices. The new choices were brisket tacos and buffalo chicken sliders. When the pickle chips arrived they were warm, but not super hot like out of a fryer. A short time later our entrees arrived. The brisket tacos had cold brisket and the taco was only a bit warm at the bottom (fold) area and the brisket actually felt colder than room temp like it may have been refrigerated. The chicken sliders came with tots and were really good with good buffalo spicy flavor and these were served hot. The pickle chips ended in a pool of oil/grease. I know they are fried, but it seemed like a large amount of grease in the bowl. The service got slower and slower. Had to ask multiple times for blue cheese that was ordered with the chicken and was not asked about wanting an additional drink until we asked for our bill. At that time, we were done eating and I would have appreciated at least a water to go with the last half of my meal. Instead, we just took the bill, cold tacos and one chicken slider to go. Not sure when I will be back, could have been just an off night. The bar area was busy, but not full and the also have a nice large outside patio area and even a stage for bands when it's warm.

    Read all of the other negative reviews on google. Aside from the owners being POS, there's plenty of true stories with many witnesses about what happens in the kitchen that should deter anyone from ever ingesting food here. Add in the bugs and the business owners celebrating the people of their own community starving, there is literally no reason to go here. There's a million other places in Alton, Godfrey, Wood River that deserve your business and you will be much more pleased with.

    Large patio out front and to the side. Huge projector TV in it even. They had $3 Margs, which is always a draw had a girl date with my gal pal. This place was surprisingly wonderful. We started with some loaded tots & I got cheddar broccoli soup with my main course. I'm telling you these tots should have come with this soup my tortellini was loaded and super tasty I had a nibble of the steak sandwich too, we came to the right place for sure. Our waitress was attentive and helpful! Thanks Macey! Little out of my way, but I will come back!

    Large patio!

    We popped in here on a Friday night and it wasn't too crowded. There is a bar side and a restaurant side. We sat on the bar side at a high top table. The bar side will eventually connect directly to the patio - as of now they have a temporary wall while they wait for custom doors. The menu had plenty of variety - typical bar food and more! I saw a cajun tortellini and HAD TO HAVE IT! It was a great choice - delicious! There was quite a bit of butter/grease in the sauce that may turn some folks off, but I enjoyed it. Hubby ordered nachos for an app and wings to eat. I tried both and they were good but not the best I've had. We had the fajita chicken nachos and they had a weird sauce on them and pickled jalapenos which I didn't love. The wings were "hot" sauce style, but the sauce wasn't really hot. Had an underlying flavor of maybe some type of jelly. Out friend ordered a pizza - thin crust. He and Hubby really enjoyed it. It was good but thin crust isn't my fave. Overall I feel most of the "I didn't love it" items were really preference for me and not necessarily their food. The employee that helped us was friendly and attentive. I would definitely go back - especially once the big patio is open!

    I wanted to update my previous review specifically for the wings. I ordered these naked and extra crispy. They were great! Much bigger drummies and flats than I've had here in past. Sauce was not spicy at all but did have good flavor. I would order the wings again and ask for extra crispy. Burger is still a solid choice too.

I met two female friends here for Happy Hour this past Friday. I thought I'd arrive early to secure a table, when I did the bar was already packed and it was just 5PM. I was greeted by a male bartender, who poured a good and refreshing Tito's with Seltzer. Pricing for a call brand was cheap. Not sure if it was a HH deal or not. I'll update that on next visit. The best way to describe, Catdaddy's is that it is an upscale dive bar. Its crowd was a good mix of ages, sexes and diversity. We were still there during the bartender change and the young lady who came on duty was also, attentive and friendly. There's no full kitchen, but they do offer bar pizzas, if you need a nosh to cut the liquor. I had fun, so I know I'll be back.

White linen table cloths and black linen napkins. The tables are protected it a sheet of butcher paper cut to the exact size. It protects that pretty white linen.

I chose Bleu Cheese as my dressing. The dressing was thick, creamy and had chunks of Bleu Cheese. The lunch special had two cannelloni's filled with meat and overly covered in a rich pink vodka sauce blended with lots of sautéed spinach. The sauce had good flavor, they just over poured on top of the cannelloni. Luck for me it came with a breadstick to wipe up the extra sauce. My server was attentive. She checked on me a couple of times while I dined. Sonny the owner, was assisting servers and thanking guest for coming back. From what I have heard in the community, everyone is glad Sonny is back in charge. I think they'll be doing just fine.
