What the heck this is a supper club on steroids. My son and I were able to be seating at the bar. He had the kids cheeseburger, I had side of Brussels, the beef tip appetizer, and the blue cheese wedge. Wow that wedge salad was amazing- the bacon was perfect, blue cheese great and it had a French dressing sauce as well. I have never had a wedge served that way and it was great. My son's cheeseburger was amazing.They use the left over meat from trimmings. Our server (perhaps owner I should have asked) said they don't want to be a burger place. Well I hear you but that kids burger was amazing. The beef tips were fantastic- great Dijon mustard sauce. It was a great meal! Crowd was up north Chicago style- but man the food is stellar. Make a reservation- this is a gem. I was enjoying it so much I forgot to take pictures!

After waiting an hour and 20 minutes for fish fry and a pizza, (food still has yet to arrive), the bartender advised that on a Friday, it's pretty normal to wait nearly two hours for a pizza. It's not nearly 10pm, it's empty and food is god knows where. I get it that this place is quintessential up north and has been here forever, but after waiting 30 minutes for a beer that was warm and wrong and now two hours for food, I'd recommend bringing snacks to quell the hunger while you enjoy the ambience. I hope it's good. If I'm still awake when it arrives. Two stars for the location.

Our drink order got taken right away and the drinks came promptly. We tried the OG Fungo stuffed mushroom app and the duck tenders. The stuffed mushrooms were great and I'd order again. The duck tenders were forgettable. I ordered the pretzel pork schnitzel and my brother in law got the Thai steak. Portions were large and the entrees came out in a timely manner. Both were interesting concepts, different than standard menu options. The schnitzel was good, not great. The pretzel breading didn't really provide the flavor or texture boost I expected. The Thai steak was flavorful and a hit

As most places are closed on Mondays, we appreciated it being open; however, we did not appreciate the lack of service and the poor tasting food. We waited 20 minutes for someone to take our order, and another 20 minutes to get our food which was mediocre at best. We ordered the Denver sandwich and the corned beef hash skillet, which was overly greasy and similar to frozen microwave food. If nothing else is open, we personally would rather cook at home.

Went here for the first time, early (4pm) on a Friday for "Fish Fry" to beat the crowd…read more What a nice, clean friendly place. Very welcoming staff and food/drinks were great. Our party of four each ordered different styles of fish meals and all were beautifully prepared and delicious. Our server Lindsey (sp?) was great. Very nice, attentive and truly made us feel welcome and appreciated. We will be making The Wild Turkey top's on our list of favorite dinner stops. Need to come back and try the Prime Rib next. The smoked chicken wings were also fantastic by the way and perhaps the best Old Fashion's we've ever had. Love "Widow Maker" on tap. My favorite.

We stopped here on the 4th of July as it was one of the few places open. They were busy, all the tables were filled when we arrived, and our waitress was moving. I don't recall her name but she was good even though she was swamped. Since it was Friday, our group had a variety of items. Fish fry, baked fish, jumbo shrimp, ribs, and a steak sandwich. Portions were generous and everything was delicious. I'm glad they had a full menu because the last time we were there they didn't. We all left full and satisfied.

We came in. There were a few people at the bar. Two people were at a table. Nobody greeted us, nobody told us where to sit. We asked the guys at the table if we should seat ourselves. They said we could. We sat. We waited, and waited, and waited. No one took a drink order let alone a food order. No one said hello. After 10-15 minutes we got up and walked out. As we were walking out, the bartender yells, "I can take your order." We told him to forget it. We definitely won't recommend it.

My wife stayed back for a little bit, and I went on the hunt for pizza. The first bar I went to, it was about 8:45. Well, they stopped serving food at 8 o'clock. Blew my mind. So then I used all of my skills to try to find a place. Damn, there's nothing around! So I'm driving around, kind of getting worried about finding something to eat. I pull up to this place and walk in, and someone who was already there just happened to ask, "Are you still serving?" I said, "Yeah, I want to know too!" They stopped serving at 9. It was 8:57. The bartender asked the cook, "Are you cooking anymore?" "Sure, why not?" I felt the heavens open up and the angels were singing, because I was hungry as hell and nothing else was open! Sat back, had a couple beers, grabbed my pizza, brought it back to camp, and the pizza was fantastic. Thanks, Erik's Pub & Grub, for saving the night!
