We got seated outdoors and didn't realize how many motorcycles were around the area. We had sort of a strange experience with our waitress, a little off putting if I were describe it. They did also get our order wrong once. We got the Smashed Gyro which was delicious, it was flavorful and came with a refreshing salad. The rating is strictly as this was amazing. On the other hand we also got BLT..and this was quite the disappointment. I believe this was Kraft cheese and it completely ruined the entire sandwich. It was so salty and the bacon was just hard not crispy. The bread was overly toasted and was just hard to bite through. I asked for pickles on the side but they were sweet so not my cup of tea but grateful that it was provided.

The taco Tuesday special was great--build your own taco plate! I was worried the ingredients might have been picked over or stale, but those typical buffet maladies were far from the 1764. All buffet options were fresh and well stocked. We arrive just before 6pm and were seated immediately, no wait. The place had a handful of open tables and bar seats available. The whole menu looked great, particularly the burgers and other handhelds (I was in a sandwich mood). Significant entree selection as well, check out the menu.

The brisket sandwich special was tender, hot, and juicy and slathered with your choice of cheese--again, lots of toppings. Food was served hot and quickly. We brought our dog and sat on the outside patio with great views of Loon Mountain. I rarely award 5 stars, but this place has earned it for food, service, and music. Oh, and speaking of music, check their facebook, instagram or website for their live music schedule. There's a great area off the bar to see live performances and listen to great music.

Nice location and…read morebeautiful, historical train wagon restaurant that has moved towns and locations a few times throughout the years, and has now been in Lincoln since 2025. There weren't many people lined up, but we still ended up waiting about 30 min for a table. This seems to be caused by a lack of staff - we noticed tables weren't being cleaned up for a good 10-15 min after people left, and waitresses were rushing around. Honestly from what we observed - they could slash their waiting time by half by being more efficient and/or hiring busboys. But moving on. Food was definitely worth the wait! Boyfriend and I both had the "Cadillac" breakfast (because, well, our car) and we both loved it. He had pancakes with it and I had French toast - I *loved* the French toast. Delicious. Boyfriend also had a side of corned beef hash and I had a bite - it was my first time trying corned beef and I liked it a lot! He liked it too, and says he's usually picky with that dish, so...

The fries were bland and the fried cod was soggy from grease. I only ate about a 3rd of my meal. My husband ordered the smash burger. He said it was fine, but said it wasn't 100% of what he wanted. The smash burger patty wasn't flat like the ones we've had in the past. He was happy to be given a pickle spear on the side, and he enjoyed the fries. He ate about 90% of his meal. The atmosphere was fine, but quite noisy if you're looking for a quiet place. It has an upstairs with wood flooring, so all the walking above sounds like stomping. We'd probably eat here again if we needed to, but it probably wouldn't be our first choice. It was a hopping place, so I'm sure they do a lot of business.
