Gracey and Bruce were our servers. Both were great. Gracey immediately removed trash ( which is a rarity now days). The service reminded me of a cruise vacation from several decades ago. My wife and I shared the trio ( salmon, shrimp and chicken tenders) plus baked potato, steamed broccoli and a salad. Our bill was a bit over $20 plus tip. The only thing I wish we would have changed is we would double up the shrimp instead of the chicken. 3 at our table raved at the sirloin. My father in law said his baby back rips were wonderful. Everyone raved at the food and the service. My only warning is get there early--- don't expect to walk to table at noon. We got there when it opened at 11am and they accommodated our group of 8 immediately. My brother in law drove back for a return trip a couple days later ( I had to go home). My opinion is since Covid most places don't do good service anymore. FD's does.

Our waitress was excellent and attentive. And finally, the price was really reasonable. Great dining experience, and if I could rate it higher, I would!

My wife and I went for an early dinner and so she could have the prime rib dinner special. I decided to go with the chicken fried chicken again. We like to sit in the bar area for the TVs and Candace, our favorite server. And she didn't disappoint . Well I was a little concerned when our entrees came within about five minutes after getting our salads. It takes a while for chicken to fry and for the prime rib to cook and rest as well. We felt our entrees weren't cooked fresh for our order. The flavors were good but neither were as good as we've grown to expect. We didn't say anything to our server but won't order them again. Every restaurant can have an off night and we'll probably give them another shot down the road.

** For those who are neurodivergent, have ASD, social anxiety, etc. **…read moreThe parking is spread out, so it's not overwhelming. There is one entry to the building on the West middle side. They have glass doors, so you can see the volume of people inside first. The bathroom is uniquely placed at the South West corner of the building and, even better, has a half wall so you can quietly retreat out of view, if necessary. You can either order and pay at the bar right at the entry, or there is an outdoor bar as well. I will note, the outdoor bar is more crowded, louder, it is more difficult to hear and be heard by the bartender. I prefer the indoor bar when it is less crowded. The menu is not extensive, so it's simple to order from. There are food trucks available at multiple spots outside, so it is easy to order and not feel too crowded. I've attended twice and the staff are very kind. At the tables in the immediate outdoor space that is enclosed in winter, the patrons are usually extremely loud because it is a small space. This can be problematic for those with sensory issues around noise. However, when it's good weather and open to the outdoors there are extensive options for seating with a variety of types of chairs. One can easily find a spot a bit further from the crowds for a more relaxed and quieter experience. When the outdoors are open to patrons there is another entrance that is a few feet from the main West entrance to the building. This makes for a great secondary option to leave without passing through the thicker crowds seated nearer the bar. However, often a food truck is placed at that entrance which can feel a bit overwhelming. The only change I would make is that they don't provide ice water and there aren't other options to beer if that's not something you are into or you don't drink very much. I think that would be a great improvement to their business model. I highly recommend this location compared to other bar experiences in the Springfield, Battlefield, Republic area.

Yet they do have limited seating indoors (Ac/heat) and about the same limited seating under the patio (heaters only) but most is outdoors, like 1.3 acres worth. Outdoors has two music stages and plenty of seating. Dogs are usually welcomed as long as they behave, except at some special events where ADA dogs are only allowed. Beers are plentiful with more than 8 beers on tap. For those that aren't beer lovers they have a couple frozen drink options that are always tasty. Food trucks vary from day to day but the best way to keep up on trucks is follow their FB page. The owners are super nice and down to earth. They are always doing charity events which is awesome. Don't miss Oktoberfest which is super fun with multiple food trucks! I frequent this establishment about once every two weeks, even more when the weather is nice.

LOUD AF on a Tuesday night with incredibly slow service…read more I like to eat in local places while we're on the road. Read about this place being historic with a beautiful bar and lovely tin ceiling. And that is all true. Walked in and could not believe how loud the single singer with an acoustic guitar was. There was a sound engineer, working a board, so he must've thought that level was OK. But you could not have a conversation at all. I was wishing for earplugs. When we first stepped in, I considered just looking at the carved mahogany bar and going somewhere else. But, we figured it should be fast and we could endure the cacophony for a short time. We were so wrong about it being fast. There was only one wait staff working that night, and she was also behind the bar. When she finally moseys over to us, she admitted she had forgotten all about us. She then took our drink order, and the drinks came quickly. But then she literally never came back to take a food order. Watched her go to all the other tables, watched her clean off the bar, watched her answer a phone call for a takeout order, and then I finally went up to the bar and asked her if we could put in a food order. Once the food was ordered it came out quickly. My husband's smashburger and candied pecan salad were both really delicious. I am a sucker for a local food item whenever I see it on the menu, and I made the mistake of ordering the cashew chicken poutine. The cashew sauce had zero flavor and was just overly salty. The chicken was fried very tough. At least the cheese curds were good. But I barely ate any of it. Nothing but regret about this choice.

The restaurant was pretty busy but our server Benjamin came over immediately and took our drink order. We ordered the Chicken nachos and they let us sub pork for the chicken. The toppings are good and plentiful but the chips were really thick. Some were crunchy while others were just hard. I was too tired to send them back and order something else so I just mostly ate the toppings. Hubby ordered the Shrimp and tenders. We were sharing and this entry was plenty to share. You get 4 decent size fried shrimp and two very large chicken tenders. They came out very hot, perfect!!! The fries were luke warm and not very good. We would get this again but probably try other sides. We noticed many people around us getting the flatbread pizzas. They all looked delicious! We definitely would come back and try other things. Fun friendly atmosphere.
