Gonna have to downgrade from my previous 5-star review. We had been to Smokey's numerous times over…read morethe past several years and have always been impressed. Not this time. We stopped in with family recently and the food was just so-so. I and another member of our party ordered the beef brisket. The meat was dry as a popcorn fart. Was it left over from the previous day and re-heated? All I know is that Texas brisket should be moist and melt-in-your-mouth. This was like shoe leather. I had to slather it with BBQ sauce to make it palatable. I could only choke down about a third of it, and I gave up. The only redeeming value was the service was good that day, and they still have a decent beer selection. Smokey's, you be slidin'.

We ordered cheese curds, fried pickles, a chicken alfredo pizza and I had a chicken bacon ranch sandwich with fries. A lot of bacon on my sandwich, chicken was juicy. It was a tasty sandwich. Fries are the battered type. Done perfectly. Very good. The cheese curds were also good. Light batter and cooked just right. Not state fair curds, but pretty dam good. The fried pickles had a thick breading on them. The pickle to breading ratio was off. If they battered there own instead of getting them out of a bag, they would probably be awesome. The pizza was cheesy, garlicky and had a good amount of chicken. Was watching steaks coming out and man did they look good. Friday's have steak specials and it was clear that's what most people were there to get. I've give that a try next week. All in all, I like this place and will definitely be back.

The staff said nothing and let the regular continue with his rantings such as "he smells like vagina","at least I don't have any problem getting laid" ,"I'll take him outside and kick his ass" This made my husband and I quit our dining and left. Why would staff let this behavior continue, but they simply brushed it off even when my husband stated, "we need to go" when clearly we just started our meal. I was 100% sure I'd be a witness to a fight if we didn't leave. What a crappy staff!!

2026 Dive Bar 3 of 40…read more Just off Main Street, you will find this corner bar not far from the river. Upon entering, you will notice a small bar with an adequately stocked bar, featuring about 8 taps and a number of canned and bottled beers for your liking. There are plenty of high-top tables and booths to accommodate a decent crowd. MaGillycuddy's Bar is one of those places that instantly makes you want to settle in and stay awhile. The atmosphere strikes that perfect balance between cozy and relaxed, thanks in no small part to the awesome tin ceiling-- it kind of gives this place a vintage charm you don't see often. The crowd is just what one would expect, just regular folks enjoying a libation and watching the Wild game. And they have pulltabs!! We settled in on a high-top table and ordered beers and our lunch. The Nashville Hot Shrimp is a must-try. just the right amount of heat, and packed with flavor. The Guinness cheeseburger is an open-faced burger topped with fries, Guinness cheese sauce, and, of course, bacon. That was a bit messy, and was enjoyable, but there are some other items I will want to try before going back to that entree. Between the solid food offerings, the friendly vibe, and the cool interior, MaGillycuddy's has all the makings of a local favorite. If you're anywhere near Aonka, do yourself a favor and stop in--you won't regret it.

American, Indian, tacos, pizza and more! I was hesitant to dine here but we wanted outdoor dining after getting off the lake and it's right there! I thought it should be a safe bet to order pizza, you can't mess up a pizza! Boy was I wrong. I was actually appalled when it came out and was placed on the table because the cheese was barely melted and the giant banana peppers looked like they were slapped on after the fact. I tried to force myself but couldn't even finish the piece i started - even my kids stuck their nose up to it, that's when I knew it was bad and I had to say something the top was undercooked and the bottom was crispy but also the flavor was horrible. I don't know if it was the owner or manager but he offered to make a new one for us and I basically insisted that he did not, so kindly he removed it from our tab with no issue. I greatly appreciate that customer service. I will say the basket of fries were great - thankfully so we didn't leave completely starved.
