We were traveling the back roads of Kansas. It was getting late and we were starving. We were…read moreoriginally going into a Mexican restaurant and they were trying to choose early so we asked if any where else in town was open. They told us about pooche's. We weren't expecting much but didn't care. As it was right at 9pm, kitchen cutoff, they were polite and said we can do pizza. So we ordered a large supreme. It was actually really good pizza. I do recommend.

Speakeasy is the perfect name for this steakhouse! You walk into an old beat up building through an…read moreold beat up door then immediately walk through a little bit nicer door and bam, you're in a fine dining, white linen table cloth restaurant! Taylor was amazing, our bartender made perfect martinis and the food was off the charts! The shrimp cocktail was six of the biggest shrimp ever, the Chicken Dianne was rich and delicious and hubby's Wagyu Ribeye was spectacular! The show stealer was the pork belly, it was rendered to the perfect melt point with a flavor all it's own, no sweet sauce, just pork! It's in the middle of nowhere but oh so worth the trip!

We liked our dinner here but wouldn't make the effort to come back unless we were driving near it…read morevia the interstate on a trip. The salads were nice, good homemade dressing and they serve lovely bread and butter-I'd give those a Nebraska 4-4.5. The truffle potatoes were super dry, tasted nothing like truffle and almost impossible to swallow without a swig of water in your mouth. The prime rib was smoked so long there was almost no flavor except smoke. Perhaps some people like that but I just felt like I was getting colon cancer with every bite, plus they were full of fat too. I'd say at least 1/3 of the meat was fat in everybody's and you saw lots of picking and spitting. That makes a meal really annoying and a bit embarrassing. The baked potatoes were ok. Nothing to write home to mom about. The cocktails were ok, standard and a very light pour. Nothing fancy, no big ice cubes (lots of little melting ones making it hard to drink the cocktail) or higher quality garnish which one might expect for the price. Decent wine list. The environment is fine. It appeared clean in the restaurant, the bathroom and outside. Love the lower level lighting and tablecloths. Be careful walking in the second front door, there's a pretty big slope down. Fun history and very genuine, friendly, informative wait staff. Small town feel and quite busy. You can tell folks in the area love it.

Crazy work.

Jesus behind the bar doing what he does pouring up and mixing drinks meanwhile there's people playing billiards & just kicking it. Jesus let me know that Gillies is the only bar that has Tequila, I'm a tequila drinker and so it was just made to be. Drinks were good, ended up buying a $1 roll the dice for a random shot game and it tasted like coffee so that was a surprise. Bar closes too early though, yall gotta keep it open for like another 2 hours yall closed right when we were just getting started

The smoked pork burrito is massive, could feed three people, and is very delicious. Get the pork burrito, even if your judgement says otherwise. Split it with someone! It's the kind of thing that will cure tomorrow's hangover today. Saturday was a bit noisy/boisterous, but the general atmosphere was friendly. I did not share any of the pork with the dog!

Ten customers all at once was a tall order for the wait staff but they handled us well. We had menus and drinks in hand within minutes. The menu had normal "American" fare of chicken sandwiches and burgers. I had a Swiss mushroom burger which was, unintentionally, served medium rare. Just the way I like it. They had a salad bar which I did not try, but other people in our group liked it. Dick's Place is an okay hole in the wall probably best suited for burgers at lunch and beers after work.
