I highly recommend adding extra carne asada even though it's extra because it honestly takes the dish to another level. The house sangria is also SOOOO good. Between the food, drinks, and chill atmosphere, this spot never disappoints. If you are going on a Friday night, it gets really busy and there can easily be a 30-40 minute wait, so I would recommend going a little earlier if you can. Definitely worth the wait though!

I've had their burgers in the past which are good. Nothing life changing but solid. My favorites are the Brussel sprouts add bacon and Buffalo Chicken Tenders for apps. Both of these are great. The strips which I'm pretty sure aren't prepared in house but they're on the lighter breaded sided. So it's not all breading. The blue cheese is fantastic too. My always go to is the Steak Chimichurri Salad. This is amazing. Especially if you're doing low-carb / keto. Salad dressing is very light. Steak cooked perfectly. And the rest of the toppings are avocado, red onion and grape tomatoes add a subtle balance. Delicious. I always get this as it is filling and healthy. One thing I would avoid is the asada fries. Those were forgetful.

The place is a great vibe. The decor is awesome with real branches everywhere. They have different food vendors and events almost everyday, which they post on their schedules on Instagram! Now the real reason I keep coming back; the AMAZING staff. Justin, Bobby, Adam, Michael, Gabby, Josh, Luis, Leo and Taylor. They are all such great people who really care about their job and customers. The whole staff is so professional and knowledgeable on their beers. They are always excited to explain the types of beers on tap to new customers and welcome everyone in. Shadow grove is so lucky to have such a great team behind the counter. They really go above and beyond!

The place is definitely hidden in plain sight and while they have a decent sized sign, it kind of gets lost in the surrounding visual, but since I was slowing down, I was able to see it and pull into the parking lot. Definitely the quintessential 'hole in the wall' place in visual and vibe. For a Sunday first NFL game of the day it was a very light crowd so I didn't stay much longer than one beer, but I can definitely see it having a local following of the blue collar businesses that are plentiful in the area. I will probably stop back one night to see how that timing changes 'the scene'.

Hidden away like a Matryoshka doll inside a kbbq restaurant is this gem, a small but serviceable bar with a respectable number of machines to play. I love oddball places like this, not something anyone with a right mind would think of it but thank God they did. You can order food from the restaurant to the bar as well but the move would be to get a drink here and play a few rounds of pinball while waiting for a table.

So I have now been to both locations and this one IMO is a bit better. This is located in the back…read moreof the AYCE KBBQ resturant. It is a small bar with about 15 or so machines. 80% are from the last 7 or so years and one of the few places you will find Jersey Jack machines. There will also be a few 80s/90s machines and ocasionally one from the 70s/60s. All of the machines are SUPER well maintained and they rotate machines in and out every few weeks. Another bonus is allmost all of the machines are only .50 to play (the Jersey Jack machines though are .75) and give out free games on matches fairly often. The replay by score, though, is often really high (but most likely that is because most that come here are fairly good players). The modern Stern machines are also connected as well if you have your QR code and they post high scores on the TV on the wall. In the front of the resturant is another 10 or so machines as well (but it gets loud there as it is the waiting area for people that will be getting KBBQ). I haven't actually drank or ate here yet. One of these days I will. I also see it says 5PM (maybe that is just when the bar officially oppens) but the room is open when the resturant opens so you can play in the afternoon before the evening rush.
