    Full rack of ribs.
    Nina T.

    We shared the full rack of ribs. So tender and delicious. We both had the Tequila drink special. So good! Our server was great!

    It has been 7 years since my last review here, so I wanted to leave another 5 star rating, naturally. This is the spot my bestie and I always meet up at at Christmas time, and it's for several reasons. Best food, best cocktails, best ambiance, best service, best everything. This time we had the mushroom caps, jalapeños, and truffle parm fries, and we were both in love. The themed drinks were on point as per usual, and this is still one of the best spots to hang out at in the region.

    Need I say more,,,still the best place in Valpo!!! Had a full slab of ribs and took 1/2 slab home. Just as good second day. Wife's steak was perfect! Took a piece of key lime pie home. It was good but not $9 good, needs to be more generous. Next time we'll get 2 designer dessert cupcakes. Service was awesome. The ambiance was subtle with flamingos.

    Went to Stacks again. It's always crowded so best to have a reservation. The food was excellent again and the service impeccable. This is definitely my favorite place in the area.

    We were greeted when we walked in. The restaurant was super cute. Books and antiques everywhere. They didn't have a lot of vegan options other than the potatoes. I had a nice mocktail. I was glad to confirm the pancakes were cooked with eggs before I ordered them. Everyone else seemed to have liked their food.

    Stuffed Chicken

    A group of friends decided to expose us to one of their favorite restaurants, let's just say I wasn't impressed. Upon walking in the decor is a stark reminder of Harry Potter world and I loved that! Thee is a winding staircase that leads to the rooftop behind the hostess desk!! We were seated 30 minutes before our reservation and that was amazing! I expected the dining room to be busy on a Saturday night, but it was pretty calm. Our waiter was sweet, a bit rushed, but sweet. My husband and I ordered the surf and turf while my sister friend and her husband order the burger with garlic truffle fries and stuffed chicken. Myself and my husband had to try the jumbo crab! It did not let me down!!!! I wanted to order one to go!! The pricing on this is only $20!! It's authentic and filled with crab, so I think this is a steal!!! The surf and turf is visually mouthwatering, but the taste leaves much to be desired. The dish is served a bit lukewarm and the shrimp within the pineapple still tasted like the sea . The rice that is stuffed in the pineapple has chunks of pineapple and bacon. I personally didn't believe the bacon was a good addition to the "surf and turf" theme. The drinks were pretty good, I'll describe them as lite. If you are in the area, try it for yourself. The ambiance and decor are perfect for a summer night!!

    Melissa is the best bartender in the world! I almost always get a daily special to go with my cocktail. The bar is friendly and convivial.

    Breakfast Tacos

    Been coming here since grand opening. Never disappoints. Between service and quality they are hard to beat. Amazing place!

    Spinach dip
    Melissa C.

    So excited to try the rooftop! This was a different food and drink menu and soooo good! Service was excellent and we had a great server named Sierra. Hub had the filet and I had the steak tacos- both delicious! The vibe and ambience outdoors is great on a warm evening. We really liked it and will be back!

    Steak and eggs, Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale, Heisenberg

    Had a date night during our favorite specials week - breakfast for dinner week. We sat in the bar and enjoyed a lovely view of the televisions and the relaxed atmosphere. Our server Ellie was fantastic. She was very attentive and made sure all her tables around us were taken care of. The food was amazing as always - steak and eggs is always our favorite (make sure to add extra lemon parm sauce as that stuff is addicting). The steak was seasoned and cooked perfectly. My Heisenberg drinks were made perfectly as well and rounded out our meal very nicely.

    Cookie skillet
    Debra S.

    Note this restaurant has different menus for different locations in the same restaurant. (Main floor, rooftop, igloo and Sunday brunch) but different. Reservations suggested for all. This experience was on the rooftop. It is a loud place even very early on a Friday night. Not a vegan friendly menu. The coconut shrimp and steak tacos were enjoyed at my table. The alcohol selections are extensive. There was half price happy hour on Thursdays, still? The hot cookie skillet was the main reason for our dining choice and it did not disappoint. If super sweet is your perfect end to a meal, go for it!

    Surf & Turf Special. $36.
    Cheri P.

    A warm, library style setting. This restaurant has a main floor with a specific menu and a rooftop bar area that is 21+ with another specific menu. There are specials for appetizers, dinner features, and drinks. Those are only available on the main floor. This place gets packed so reservations are very highly recommended. The service here is always great and the food comes out fast. They are very well-known for their presentation. You will find a great variety of beers and specialty cocktails.

    Dumb. Maybe don't close the rooftop on a beautiful night with an event going on 2 hours before you close.

    Hello I have a bad knee is there an elevator to the top?

    No, however I'm sure if you express this concern, I'm sure they might be able to let you order off the upstairs menu.

The restaurant concept is very unique and perfect for this area to celebrate our rich history of being an industrial region. My kids loved the art replica outside of the building and the elevated model train that goes around the restaurant every 20 minutes. This is definitely a place for savory comfort food that really hits the spot in the Fall or Winter. Our server Treesa was awesome, constantly checking on us and taking great care of our kids. They brought out their mac and cheese really fast before us, which is what we prefer. The beef stroganoff was delicious and so comforting. My husband had the chicken pot pie and I tried a bite of it. Delicious. We also loved the cheese curds. If you're on a diet, keep scrolling. If you're looking for a warm meal in a family friendly atmosphere, this is the place to go. Easy parking in a dedicated lot. Eat local!

And had the best time. I ordered the Brick Oven Baked Pretzels that came with melted cheese. So good. And my friend ordered the IR's Original Grilled Chicken Sandwich. The fries that came with that... just yummy. The bathrooms were clean and there is a lot for parking.

    Super pretentious restaurant where no substitutions, deletions, additions, subtractions, or…read moreamendments of any kind are allowed. Any chance I could get that without... Nope! But I don't really like... Order something else! But let's keep going... Reservation at 745 at a full restaurant and I notice that no one, NO ONE, has any food on their table...hmmm... Quickly get some drinks and order. Appetizers arrive at 915...915... That's 1.5 hours later... to get appetizers... of oysters and salmon tartare. Keep in mind this wasn't to go diving in the sea and catch the oysters and salmon, but rather to shuck oysters, and also serve salmon tartare = doesn't require any cooking! But let's keep going... A full 2 hours after ordering, dinner finally arrives. During this time I've read War and Peace, crocheted a sweater, and grown a full beard. Meanwhile, during this two hour wait, not even a mention from the waitress or anyone else about, hey sorry for the delay... Sorry we're backed up... We're really backed up... We're short staffed...The chef lost an arm while preparing dinner... Anything? Nothing. Communication would have been helpful because maybe could have decided to pull the plug and call it a night. No, instead it's like carry on as of nothing's wrong. A few more things to add: -This is the second time I've been here. The first time wasn't great but, you know, second chances right? There's no third chance -During dinner I walked by the kitchen a few times and there was NOTHING happening. There were plenty of people, just doing nothing. It's not like there were 78 steaks on the grill and a beehive of activity. -Since deletions, substitutions, additions or amendments of any kind aren't allowed and since I don't eat the sides that came with my meal, I ordered a separate side of spinach. About 1.45 hours into the ordeal, the waitress tells me they're out of spinach. I don't care, I tell her, I don't want anything else just please bring our dinners. -The restaurant is LOUD. If you've ever eaten on the deck of an aircraft carrier, well that's quieter than this restaurant. -Finally, their Internet was down so no credit cards, so I paid cash and ran out of there like my hair was on fire -Food was meh, but definitely not worth the price So in conclusion, unless you want to spend most of your adult life waiting for an OK dinner, while losing your hearing, I would skip Main and Lincoln.

    2+ hours to get your food after ordering. Steak was surprisingly thin and small. Server was good,…read moreatmosphere was okay.
