They didn't skimp on the shrimp (which were done perfectly) and the dish was so flavorful. This is a fabulous restaurant in Alexandria and they are so fortunate to have it.

My wife's food was flavorless, my Korean tacos were dry and mostly vegetables. We all wanted the Seafood Mac and Cheese but didn't want to risk it being unappetizing. My youngest got it and it was delicious. Really wish I would had ordered that.

My wife, 10 year old daughter and myself were looking for some good food and found this place just…read moreabout a mile and a half off 94. This place has a long bar with 3-4 large high tops(sits 6 each). They had an additional room for overflow but was not lite up at the time. Small bar. There was about 8 people there all sitting at the bar, one bar tender. As soon as we seated ourselves, we were greeted and got our drink order in and it came fast. Extremely friendly! This was very nice as we were feeling a little awkward to start. The menu was huge and it was mostly burgers with a large app selection with some specialty items like an enchilada type thing and chicken sandwiches. I got the chicken sandwich l, wife got the enchilada thing and my daughter got a plan cheeseburger and frys. The bartender was keeping g a close eye on us and we never felt a touch of neglect or slow service. I wondered how the bartender would manage our food order and the patrons. However, to my surprise she absolutely knocked it out the park and completely surprised! Our food came out quick and was absolutely perfect. I really expected my wife's enchiladas thing ( it was a quesadilla). Was the wrong thing to order, it turned out to be the best. Chicken was not dry at all. Service was perfect. We ate and got out of there and prices were great. If bringing a kid like we did, I would do it around 6 -7 as people were filing in around 7:30 for the evening drink and was time to leave with a kid. I would come back anytime!

Although the stay within familiar territory, they put their own spin on things that take them to the next level, such as their cream-cheese duck wontons.

They're knowledgeable of their beers (which is an impressive selection for the area) and are always happy to share their knowledge of the area. This spot is definitely a stop when I'm in the area.

There are a lot of things with walleye in them and I had the walleye tacos which weren't amazing, but we're definitely passable. We love the fries! People ate some fun burgers.

Hands down the worst dining experience I've had in years. We came up to the deck bar for dinner…read morearound 7 last Friday night after a day of boating. First off we waited for 15 minutes before someone even came to our table. In the meantime a few of us went up to the bar and ordered our own drinks. When the server finally did come, i ordered another beer along with a water, neither of which I ever got. The girls at the table who got soda water in their drinks couldn't even drink them because the water smelled like sewage!! We put in our food order, along with appetizers and specifically asked for them to come out ahead of our dinner. Never happened. They came out after our other food came out. In the meantime I had to go back to the bar to get my own drink...AGAIN. Our server seemed very new and was obviously struggling, while several other servers looked on. The food..less than a 1 for a rating. I had the fish tacos and they fish was basically burnt, low budget fish sticks. Not one person enjoyed the experience there and I can't warn you enough to avoid this place at all costs!! Also, the bathrooms were absolutely disgusting!

Very good au gratins and good pasta dishes. The steak options are items to be cautious of. What is offered as a filet is close to a strip steak in my experience- very thin and expect some grizzle, so in my opinion, a filet perhaps, but not a filet mignon. Friendly service and reasonably priced drinks in today's world. All said, a place we will continue to visit.
