    Elgin Public House - Meatloaf Melt

    I was honestly pleasantly surprised by Elgin Public House. The food tasted very, very…read moregood--definitely exceeded my expectations. 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. The only downside was that the food ended up making my stomach hurt afterward, which took away from the experience a bit. Still, based on taste alone, it was impressive, and I'd consider going back while maybe trying something different next time.

    Old school pub with top notch food. I'm a simple guy so I love the aesthetic that EPH has, it a…read morebar that serves good food. 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

    I went there twice. Once for dinner with my wife and daughter, and we sat in the dining room. The…read moreother time was with a friend and we sat in the bar area. 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.

    Grumpy Goat Tavern is a hidden gem. The first time we went there, my husband and I were seated in…read morethe dining room. 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!

The venue is an older building and can use an update, but every time I am here, the service and the food is consistently fresh and tasty. Surprisingly good dishes beyond the normal bar fare too. On our last visit on a Friday night, our server Kevin was friendly and helpful in offering menu suggestions and letting us know about specials. We ordered pizza, wings and sliders off of the Happy Hour Bar Menu. For four drinks (two were non-alcoholic) and several apps, our bill was under $60. Not bad at all and we even had extra food to take home. For events, Amy here often goes above and beyond to ensure a great customer experience. The parking lot gets filled here fast on a busy bowling night, but in all, Bar Down is a fun, local place to hang out and watch a sporting event.

    Outstanding Wings -- Crispy, Juicy, and Packed With Flavor…read more I'm not sure what kind of magic is happening in this kitchen, but these chicken wings are on an entirely different level. The skin comes out perfectly crispy--that kind of crisp where you hear the crunch before you even take the bite. But the real surprise is inside: the meat stays unbelievably moist and tender, not dry or overcooked like so many places get wrong. The sauces are just as impressive. Each one has a great depth of flavor, not just heat for the sake of heat. You get that perfect balance--bold, saucy, flavorful, with a kick that hits you just right without overwhelming the rest of the wing. And let's talk about the house-made ranch. Creamy doesn't even begin to describe it. It's rich, smooth, and somehow manages to cool your palate without dulling the flavor of the wings. It's the kind of ranch you'd happily dunk anything into -- honestly, they could bottle it and I'd buy it. If you're a wing lover, this place should be at the top of your list. Quality, flavor, and consistency... they nailed all three. I'll absolutely be coming back for more.

RK's was immediately different upon entering! Greeted by the bartenter Laura and she stayed connected to us. Made sure we had what we needed and was great! The kitchen was closed for a remodel. The free popcorn was appreciated. Looking forward to the reopening of the kitchen to try the food. Drinks were excellent! The 2 piece band did a nice job and were engaging with the patrons and not just playing music. A shout out to the Staff at RK's and to Karri for responding to my email about a left behind jacket. I was able to pick up the jacket the next day. A lot of places would not care or make the effort. I really appreciate RK's Bar & Grill! Looking forward to the next visit!
