As to the food, once again it's unchanged. I ordered the salad bar and my wife had the prime rib sandwich. The salad bar is legit but it's not on the Scoreboard menu and it's $17 these days. My wife's sandwich had lots of onion and mushrooms filler. The upgraded onion strings were good though. We used to love the place but now it's just okay at best. Too bad.

(First red flag) We sat at the bar and quickly found out this was a meat market. Servers were dressed to serve and to the point some were sitting at the bar drinking with patrons. (Another big red flag) The music was so loud you could barely hear each other. The place looked like it might get cleaned twice a month. We chose not to eat here, had one drink, and happily left. If that's your scene, by all means this is your place. But for us, we wanted something different. So we left and got that elsewhere.

Although they did struggle with the service throughout their few months i don't understand all the hate the staff were all extremely friendly and nice. Be warned they do have live music on weekends and ambient music everyday which for me is entertaining and not "impossible to talk over" as some people state. I honestly think yelp should review some of these comments as they come off as extremely biased and even racist ive seen comments complain about the FREE ceviche they offer. People obviously dont have a hispanic nor adventurous palate to be trying new places like these that bring new life to our city.

This was a carry out order from their lunch menu for my family. I ordered a couple of appetizers,…read moreone of which were Southwest Egg Rolls, and they were very tasty. I think the lid of the side dressing was loose, so the dressing got all over the egg rolls, which was unfortunate. Everyone loved their food, though. I had a bbq pulled pork sandwich and it was very good. Nicely toasted buns and onion straws on the top were nice and crunchy. Pulled pork was tender and flavorful, and it had just the right amount of bbq sauce. I took one star off because of the aforementioned ranch dressing incident and also there were some spillage inside one of the three bags from the containers placed in the bag sideways. Also, I saw a bag of blue cheese, I think, left out on the bar counter unattended the entire time I was there (about 10 min). Overall, though, it's a great place for hearty and reasonably priced meals. The server who took my order on the phone and also brought my order at the restaurant, Stefan, was super nice, even though he was busy, so kudos to him!

A lot has changed since the last time we visited a few years ago…read more We were looking to break out of what I call our "DeKalb" funk since we have been eating a lot in DeKalb when we do eat out. I thought of Hoffman House, which is co-located inside a hotel. We'd eaten there years ago, and their prime rib was very good. While driving north, my wife looked it up. They changed from a white table cloth restaurant to more of a sports bar theme. Their entree list was rather anemic and just not worth the trip, except they did offer Prime Rib on Saturday. We made the trip. For starters, when you walk in there is no hostess station. The bartender told us "Sit where ever you want." so we found a booth that was clean and sat down. The seating was, well worn as in worn out. The seat covers were chipping on the chairs, and the booth seating was just dead. Our server arrived and we placed our order. My wife ordered tea, and I had a Guiness draft which was properly poured. The server brought out 4 honey buns, which are light and fluffy, sprinkled with powdered sugar, and served with a honey butter blend. They are best when they arrive - HOT. (Eat them as they arrive) It wasn't very long before the main course came out. No salad was offered. My Prime Rib was ordered and served medium rare, and the baked potato was cooked properly. I was expecting some horseradish sauce with the Prime Rib - nope. My wife did enjoy her shaved Prime Rib sandwich - the roll it was on was nice, and she opted for the premium onion strings, which were tasty. Why just okay? This was a place to go for a nice dinner with your family. It has transformed into a tired sports bar. Lots of screens, but it's kind of half-hearted with regards to the sports bar theme. Servers aren't in sports uniforms, there isn't a lot of stuff on the walls. The seating is worn out and should be either refinished or replaced. It feel like they ran out of money or concepts during the conversion, and just stopped. There is nothing compelling here to bring us back.

The place is slightly split into two parts: one side for dining and another for the bar. They have a million beers on tap, and also have wine and a full bar. Servers are friendly and helpful! The menu is pretty simple, all American food. So if you're not into that you might want to look elsewhere. But the stuff they offer they do really well. The fish and chips are great and the nacho portions are huge. They also do burgers well too. We got the kids spaghetti and meatballs for our son and it was good but the meatballs were spicy which seemed like a weird choice. The warm cookie topped with cold ice cream is the perfect dessert choice to end the night!

We were seated in the bar area. Bread sticks came out fresh, hot and were delicious. Well seasoned and perfectly cheesy . We were starving and inhaled them so fast I forgot to take a pic. Our order consisted of Spaghetti and Meatballs, BBQ Burger with tots and pizza with side cesear salad. The spaghetti came out look warm which was very disappointing. But it was very tasty and filling. Sauce was full of flavor and so were the HUGE meatballs. I can only imagine how much better it would have been hot. Would def order this again. The BBQ Burger was reported to be well cooked and yummy. It was also mildly warm when it came out. Tots were reported to be well seasoned and mildly warm also. Pizza was reported to be ok. It was also only warm. Son wasn't too impressed with it and he loves pizza.It looked very fake... like premade frozen pizza. He didn't eat but 2 small slices of it. Cesar salad was basic. Oddly enough the lettuce was warm instead of cold. So what I gather from all the temperature issues is that the food was made and sat out. That's disappointing. If it was brought out fresh I bet I could have given this a much higher rating. Refills were a struggle to get. She gave my husband and son 1 refill then never came back to check on us until it was time for the check. And again.. it was not even close to being busy. I counted 8 families in the whole place from time we arrived to time we left.

Unfortunate for my first time going, and unless you're willing to spend over an hour waiting on food at a table with crumbs all on the floor, I wouldn't go.
