    Food still amazing! Came for lunch during the week and it did not disappoint. Nice lunch specials options. Staff friendly and attentive. Inside is warm and welcoming. I went with the pierogis and they were delicious. Good amount of filling and fried perfectly. Onions were deeply sautéed. I also ordered a side of onion rings which is a good portion for a side. Onions were thick with a yummy crunch. Lastly rounded out my fried food with a side of asparagus. Impressed with how thick and well cooked/seasoned the asparagus was! Solid and reliable place!

    Rae's Old Fashion?????

    Good beer selection, the inside of the bar is nice, waitress was friendly, food is ok. The issue is if you name a bar Whiskey Rae's, you have a bourbon / whiskey theme for the bar, you list a lot of bourbons on the menu, and one of your signature drinks is a Rae's Old Fashion, please be sure to make it the correct way. Regular cube ice with bourbon is not correct! This is the second time, different days that I've ordered an old fashion and both were made wrong.

    It was our first time here and we will be back. The service was friendly and efficient. Our Server was knowledgeable about the food and beer menu. The seating was high and low tops, booths and bar seating. We stayed for trivia which was well done. The answers are on the phone, not paper and pen. We all liked that change and thought it was easy too. Chicken fajita were very good with lots of chicken.

    Heard about their Thursdays trivia, so def. wanted to try it out; gotta say it is much harder than any bar trivia I've ever done--like the jeopardy of bar trivia. Ordered the pirogies as an appetizer and was underwhelmed--flavor was bland, and pirogies appear to be deep fried in a fryer vs. in a sauté pan, which resulted in an end product that hardens as it cools. For the price I definitely feel like you should get a couple more. Husband had the chicken fajitas which he really liked. Best thing we ordered was the baked chocolate chip cookie w ice cream. What I'd definitely recommend is the cocktails; the restaurant's name should tell you everything you need to know about what they're known for. Whiskey choices abound; cocktails were strong and tasty--really enjoyed the espresso martini and the old fashioned. Service was just so-so. We had a table of eight, and our server never asked about refills (water or pop), and we had to snag her for more cocktails. Would I go again? Maybe, but just for drinks.

    Stopped in on a Thursday while visiting a conference. The restaurant was aesthetically pleasing, well lit, and had college basketball sweet 16 playing on all of the TVs. We started off on a rocky start since our Blue berry vodka drink didn't taste good and had no hint of liquor in them. Sent them back and ordered basic vodka-cran. Next, I order 3 appetizers for the table: Calamari, steak tips, and nachos. Out of the 3, I'd order the pork nachos again. The steak and calamari were soooo overcooked and chewy. As for dinner, one had soup, another person had a salad, two people had burgers, and the last person had seared tuna. Burgers were well-WELL done with no flavor. Everything was described as ok but with a shrug. Drinks were ok but the food was hit or miss. I'd come here again for just for drinks and ambiance.

    Let's start off with the stellar ambiance this place provides. If you're a bourbon drinker this place is for YOU! They literally have everything you've wanted to try at reasonable prices. The service was kind and attentive. They also brought our food and drinks quickly! As for the Rueben sandwich it was very lack luster and I wouldn't order it again since it was very dry. I'll definitely be back to try some other dishes!

    I called to ask of they take reservations for two people, the woman said they don't take reservations. Pause. Then I asked if two of us could walk in, she replied yes. Ok. It used to be Avery's before it became Whisky Rae's. They have a wall of shelves of over 200 whiskeys at the bar too. They are out of Turkey burger, Porter house and tap #7 tonight. We ordered the 6 herb roasted chicken with an upcharge of onion rings ($3), house salad with honey mustard and side of broccolini, duck grilled cheese with an up charge of crispy waffle fries and a Cobb salad sans bacon, ranch dressing on the side. There was a $1 charge for the side of whisky BBQ sauce. Our waitress waitress is nice, attentive and helpful too. She asked if we wanted the food all at once or when it's done. I said whenever it's done. She let us know the sides that were an upcharge as well while ordering too. She brought us side plates when I told her we are sharing all of the food. The house salad is ok. The Cobb salad is okay as well. No romaine in our Cobb, it's mixed lettuce, which I don't mind at all. I do like the black slate plates as well, but they look like they are hard to clean. The duck grilled cheese is just ok. Duck was a bit to fatty for a sandwich for me and there just wasn't enough cheese to qualify as a grilled cheese sandwich for us. The duck is still yummy with the seasonal berry sauce. The seasonal berry sauce is good, maybe a bit thicker so it doesn't all run off the sandwich? Plating the grilled cheese makes it more appealing to see the meal and cheese as well. The 6 herb chicken has nice flavor for sure, the leg and parts are a bit dry though. The breast is dry as well. Good flavor but need to work on not overcooking the chicken. Kurtis checked up on us and took some constructive feedback on the chicken and the duck grilled cheese. Kurtis did acknowledge that they have had some complaints about the chicken being too dry. Kayla took really good care of us tonight. She's on it. Really good at what she does for sure. I wish everyone that ever waited on us had half her skillset. Iron out a few items and they are on the right track.

    Came here for trivia for the first time in a while. We used to come regularly but the food was…read morealways mediocre so we went to other spots, but we saw online they revamped their menu so we figured we'd give it a try. Let's just say they definitely improved ! We got an order of chips and their seasonal salsa, which was roasted red pepper, and it was very flavorful and delicious. I got a hot honey burrito with beans and rice and my gf got birria tacos. Also not pictured is a marg. Hot honey burrito was a lot of food! The rice is okay, a little bland and clumps together, unlike traditional Mexican fluffy rice. Refried beans are fine. Burrito is very filled and was super sweet from the hot honey which made it a bit hard to finish, but definitely enough food, and I probably could have eaten half. Birria tacos were delish and the consumé was super rich. Margs come in different flavors but they all kinda taste the same to me so far, and they're strong. Maybe a bit too strong? Depends what your goal is with them. Service was good, a little slow for us being at the bar, but nothing to be concerned about. Trivia was fun and we'll definitely be back to try some other things on the menu. Great job on menu revamp!

    We used to come here semi frequently for their trivia on Tuesdays but were pretty unimpressed with…read morethe tacos and stopped coming eventually. BUT we saw that they recently refreshed their menu and decided to give them another try and ordered some different options off of the menu and were really impressed this time around. The seasonal salsa was a roasted red pepper which was a great start to our meal, we also got some $5 house margs which are super strong and refreshing. I had the birria tacos and I thought they were really good! The meat was super tender and the consommé was really flavorful and well seasoned, I've had some other places that were pretty watery. We sat at the bar and our bartender was super friendly and the food came out so fast we were pleasantly surprised! And trivia is always a blast with Pajama Dan.
