Have been here a few more times over the years. Service and food have been consistent. They have…read moreexpanded their menu offerings over time so that there are a few more options for pescatarians (like their fish sandwich and weekend brunch options), which we have very much appreciated. Only items holding back from a 5th star in my rating are that their prices seem high for burgers and the occasional issue with their H&C system. The air from their ventilation has generally not been an issue at most of the tables we have been seated at, although they have not fixed it for the tables north of the bar near their stage. So if you would prefer to not have dry-eyes, avoid the couple of tables near the stage (which also would avoid the constant line of traffic of servers navigating to/from the kitchen).

I wasn't sure what to expect but this wasn't it. This place is wild! The decor is very wacky but…read moresometimes that's a clear indicator that it will be good. The menu is huge! And a little overwhelming. I assumed everything would be processed but I'm pretty sure the coney sauce was house made. Footlong coney day was always one of my favorite lunch days in high school so I opted for the footlong coney. It was pretty good. A regular size one would have been plenty since apparently my adult stomach is smaller than my high school stomach. The strawberry soft serve was good too. It was more tangy than sweet. My brother had the carrot cake ice cream. While it wasn't as carrot cake-y as he expected, he still liked it. The employees were friendly and we got our food fairly quick. There were several other people walking up/dining in and the drive-thru was busy the whole time we were eating.

There are no lists of flavors for ice cream when you face the windows where you place the orders…read more There are all kinds of menu items listed there but NOTHING tells you the list of ice cream flavors are along the side of the building by one of the parking lots. If you park on the other side of the building you completely miss out on the list. It would have been nice to have a sign POINTING to where the flavors are. Instead you just think you can get soft serve cones or sundaes. Speaking of which, by husband ordered a large brownie sundae with hot fudge sauce and they didn't put on the fudge sauce. The lines were long so he didn't go back to correct it. But quite disappointed. Also the "large" was like a kiddie cup size. I ordered a medium twist in a cup and it was twice the size of his "large" sundae.

We had a group of 6 and came in on a Saturday evening…read more The pizza was good - the crust was a bit doughy but the cheese and sauce were good, and the toppings were plentiful. The bread appetizer was good, but a bit of a duplicate of the doughy crust. One of our party who wasn't in a pizza mood ordered a grinder and gave a "meh" review to it. There was a huge private party and we were seated near the door - it kept opening - then loud music and lots of noise - then the private party door closed. It happened ~50 times during our meal, and was a bit disruptive to conversation. In hindsight, I would have found seating away from that door.

This bar is a local tradition for New Castle. There are regulars at the counter each day. They have…read morepool tables, a juke box and a lively atmosphere. I sampled the steak sandwich and WOW. They have meat from Rihms locker, and mix it with cheese and onions on a buttery grilled bun. Excellent diner style steak sandwich. The decor is ecclectic and plenty to look at while you have your beer. It reminds me of the Toby Keith song, "I love this bar." There are bikers, farmers, firemen, hippies, chain smokers and boozers. You can go here to laugh and have a conversation with a stranger, or sit in silence at the bar with a drink. It is a true classic "dive bar". It is locally owned, and you can tell that the owner truly cares about her patrons. We stopped in on the evening of Thanksgiving. I thought it was so neat that the owner had assembled a Thanksgiving dinner for all of her normal patrons. You don't find a family, "we are all in this together" atmosphere like that very often anymore. Warning: they do allow smoking.

We were seated right away, and the waitress was super kind to explain the menu to us since it was our first time, and gave us the hot bar/salad bar run down. I ordered the Parmesan chicken with a baked potato and seasoned green beans and it was very good. My fiancé got the hot bat which was bbq for the night. I tried a few bites of stuff from his plate and the pulled pork was absolutely amazing. I wasn't disappointed with anything we tried. Maybe added a little salt and pepper to some things as per my preference but overall it was great. We were obsessed with the burger flight appetizer! They were probably the highlight of dinner from how good they tasted and how creative they were. The bathrooms were tidy, well decorated and overall very nice. Overall were very happy, will most likely try to have a date night there again, and plan to contact them to discuss the possibility of catering out wedding.

Much like Steven Tyler sang on the single that was released the year I was born (I just now…read morediscoverd this!), I am back in the saddle, again! Recently, my family went on a, er, fateful camping trip. Fateful is perhaps a strong term. But much like Back in the Saddle isn't Aerosmith's best song, this wasn't my favorite camping trip. Oh, far from it! But this isn't a review about camping venues. It's a review about a restaurant. Why? Because when the rain comes in and dampens your family's weekend plans, quite literally, it's time for Plan B! I wasn't familiar with the area, but something drew us to Ky's American Bistro and, honestly, they kind of saved the day! Ky's is a locally owned establishment that specializes in down-home cooking and classic American fare. They advertise an unlimited salad bar, which I think is great. The unlimited salad bar seems to be vanishing from our culture (R.I.P. Ruby Tuesday!), and while I am not the biggest fan of the all-you-can-eat buffet (don't judge my lunch choice below!), I AM a fan of a salad bar that giveth abundantly. Beyond the salad bar, they create "handcrafted" burgers, tenderloins and hand-cut streaks. We arrived on a Sunday afternoon, and they had a hot bar you could add to the unlimited salad bar. Yes, it was technically a buffet, but I am going with "hot bar" because its my review, and I can. Joking aside, it was a solid Sunday meal. The hot bar had fried chicken, mashed potatoes, mac 'n cheese and green beans. Basically, the perfect Sunday comfort meal after a less-than-stellar camping trip. My son ordered the bone-in wings and they looked great, nice and meaty. My girls loved the "jello fluff" off the salad bar. I am a sucker for a salad bar that includes more than just salad, even if its simply something for my kids to enjoy. They also include a soup with the salad bar because, of course! It was a cheesy cauliflower, and my oldest daughter was skeptical. But she loved it and downed a bowl quickly. The decor is rustic, yet comforting: knickknacks on the wall, but it never felt like they were going full Cracker Barrel. My youngest daughter loved the "Farm to Table" sign with the greenery hanging down. She was already interested in decorating her bedroom in a similar fashion, so she was very impressed. And let me tell you, that's saying something for her! Lol. My only drawback was that it was nearing the end for the hours of the hot bar, yet more people had just been sat who stated they wanted to order the salad and hot bar. The kitchen brought out some fresh chicken, but said that was all that would be served. It was a little early, I felt, since a large family had just ordered, but it all worked out. There was enough food, and I understand a business wanting to save on food waste. I saw a review that mentioned instant mashed potatoes. All due respect, but that reviewed is crazy. These potatoes were THICC. No "k" needed! They were served with a delicious chicken gravy. The food was exactly what you would want for a down-home comfort meal. Whether you are surviving the bad weather or just looking for a great meal, Ky's has you covered.
