    The worst service ever I walk in and they act like they haven't seen black peoples before ..order extra beef on my sandwich and they gave me less meat !! Went to the rest room when I got out my food was sitting on the table !! But I should've known better and went to big Sammie's better for better service better people! If I go to the restroom there my food would've been handed to me like it was supposed to ...never coming back

    In 2 weeks I've been to this establishment twice both times same issue . Last week I walked in at 11:01am stood their for literally 10 minutes before anyone took my order (people were eating inside and drive thru was moving) anyway the guy there gave me a $3 off next $15 order and apologized cool, yesterday I go in with a coworker 11:01am order was in 11:04am I get my drink wash my hands and proceed to wait 20 minutes I seen multiple people order and leave with their food I walked up to see what the hell was happening, the whole time it's just sitting there jerks I'm at lunch on work in a gps company vehicle I didn't get to eat my $15.07 burger (over priced) after yesterday experience I'm at the point of just bring a lunch to work, not just beef shack but in general foods so expensive and the service is getting worse.

    Mold on bun

    MOLD BEWARE The food at Beef Shack is typically pretty good. This time around I ordered the chicken sandwich. Halfway through my meal I notice mold on the bun. That being said I'm never returning to this particular Beef Shack. Just praying I don't get sick.

    13 dollars for this? Totally overpriced no way will I ever go back there again not even big portions go to Portillo's you get more for your money

    Where's the chicken?

    After church headed over for a quick bite, to share with my wife. Waited in line, they gave me a free shake, I didn't like it, my wife said it is not bad. Got the food home and her chicken sandwich is missing the 24 hour marinated chicken. Also asked for celery salt on my fries, too much to ask for. Double dog was good, but my confusion was you had me wait in slot 3, so I assumed that you were going to make sure my order was correct. Sorry beef shack your standards have slipped too far for us.

    There earlier bad reviews kept me away. I used to drive an extra 15 minutes to the St. Charles location. They told me that they worked out the kinks at this location. I ordered the cheesy beef on garlic bread and the small fries. What else would I order? The small fries were big, made to order and fantastic. The sandwich was very good. A little less cheesy and garlic than St. Charles, but still really good. It's a 10 minute drive from home so I will be back!!

    Grilled cheese made with love!! Grilled Cheese Sandwich

See, Grumpy Goat consists of two indoor dining areas and an outdoor seating area within a slightly larger building also that has a locker room, golf shop, and meeting room. The food ranges from pub food, to sandwiches, to flatbreads, to great steaks. Both times, the bar area was louder and people tend to focus on drinks and appetizers there. There's a separate dining room beyond the bar area where full dinners seem more common. Given that my 2 trips were in November and December, don't have a good sense for the outside area. I could just see that there are several tables overlooking the golf course. On certain nights, they have live music. Great variety of drinks, appetizers, sandwiches/burgers, and entrees. Can go inexpensive, or can get a filet mignon and spent a lot. Filling choices. Prices are quite reasonable.

Although the view of the golf course was phenomenal, it felt old, worn out. Since the food was exceptional, we gave Grumpy Goat another try and went on a Thursday. This time we sat in the bar. The atmosphere was so much better. The views were the same as the dining room. The best part was that there was live music. About once a month, my husband and I go on a Thursday for dinner and the music. In the warmer weather, the music is on the terrace. We usually have the artichoke dip appetizer. I get the chicken saltimbocca, my husband gets the Jambalaya, and our daughters get the Lobster Mac and Cheese. One of our daughters and I get the Vina do Campo Ribeiro white wine, the other daughter drinks the lemon martini, and my husband gets a beer from their extensive list. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Everything was flavorful and well put together, and it made for a great dining experience in the moment. The atmosphere was also nice, and overall it felt like a solid spot to grab a meal.

Still, based on taste alone, it was impressive, and I'd consider going back while maybe trying something different next time.

Nothing pretentious or phony about it and that was the draw for me. Came in on a cold and snowy Wednesday night and while there weren't many patrons there the vibe was great. Waiter was attentive and friendly as we ordered fresh made chips and guacamole, steak salad for my wife and a build your burger with fried egg & provolone w/fries on a pretzel roll. You can tell that the chefs in the back take pride in what they do as the food was some of the best pub food I've had. Extensive and great drink selection too. From local breweries to the name brands you know they have a beer for all palettes. Wine and liquor selection looked decent too For me, it's a bit of nostalgia as I remember this is how pubs used to be. If you're likeminded, you'll be a fan too

Stopped in for dinner with my wife. I got the cheeseburger special (fries and a drink). I will say it was good, but a bit heavy on the added mustard. Most places go heavier on the ketchup side, but this was mustard heavy. Fries were good. Wife got the Greek chicken. She never finishes her meal so I always get to comment on both dishes. I have to say the Greek chicken was outstanding. Really flavorful. I had her wing, leg and part of the breast. The rice was tender and yummy. Small piece of garlic bread but was also good. Greek potatoes were really good too. I made a mistake. I should have ordered what she had. It was that good. I wish I took a photo, but the food was devoured so quickly. The service was long, but Thats to be expected when you order chicken dishes. Only two other people in the restaurant and both had the Greek chicken as well. I want to go back, but it's too far unless I decide to take on another play in the area. Workers in the restaurant were very nice and friendly. They thanked us for dining with them. I like that.
