Pulling into the packed parking lot on a football Sunday, we were already discussing our backup…read moreplan if the wait was too long. Turns out the entire heated patio is first come, first served, and we were seated almost immediately. It was one of those windy Indiana afternoons where the cold finds every gap in your jacket. I fully expected to spend lunch shivering. Somehow, the heated patio felt warmer than the restaurant itself. Between the TVs, football on every screen, and the patio heaters, we had zero complaints. Now let's talk about the famous pepperoni-stuffed breadsticks. They're a must. And order your own nacho cheese. Seriously. Don't expect anyone to share. I could eat a shoe dipped in their cheese and probably enjoy every bite. The breadsticks always arrive piping hot, stuffed with gooey mozzarella, and if we're judging on a cheese-pull scale...I'm giving them a solid 7/10 on the stretch meter. As for our server, Zach...what a true gem. He's one of those people I'd honestly be surprised to hear anyone say they didn't like. Funny, quick with the jokes, and somehow kept up with the chaos without missing a beat. He also made sure my lemon drop martinis never had a chance to get lonely. Since I wasn't driving, he happily assisted me in...staying hydrated. The place was busy enough that we couldn't stand around chatting long, but he's the kind of person you'd genuinely enjoy running into again. We've been here twice now, and both visits have been consistently great. Whether you're stopping in to catch the game, escape the cold on the heated patio, or simply satisfy a craving for those ridiculously good breadsticks, Ale Emporium continues to be one of our favorite spots. Just don't skip the breadsticks...and trust me, order your own cheese. You'll understand after the first bite.

Man, found a new place for chicken. The crispness is true. Their Golden Original flavored chicken…read morereminds me of Sunburst Fried Chicken (best chicken flavor IMO). They have lots of choices for chicken flavors, but only for wings. The half or whole chicken are only limited to 3 flavors, and sometimes, only 2 are available. I got the bulgogi rice bowl, not bad, enjoyable but the meat is not as flavorful like K-Town. The So Ddeok So Ddeok was just ok in flavor, but really spicy. The chicken fried rice was well flavored and not over powering so it was enjoyable. Overall, it hit some marks but missed on some. We're used to really flavorful food if it's Korean. if you're looking for that here, there are other places that's better. But their chicken, we would definitely come back for them, as they're really, really good, especially fresh off the frying pan. We ordered a whole chicken (golfen original) for to go we can continue to enjoy them at home (air fryer). Service was good, considering there was only one server, but it wasn't busy. No outdoor seating. Great ambiance for watching sports. Let's just say, it's better place to watch sports than BWW.

Came on a Sunday and…read morehadn't had breakfast so opted for a Chicken Fried Rice Bowl with grilled chicken, green peppers, onions, I beveled green onions and water chestnuts topped with a soft fried egg. Very good and filling. I wanted a little more flavor so added soy sauce for a little help. It took about 15 minutes and came out steaming hot. The server/hostess was very friendly and answered my questions since this was my first time here. They have some pop music playing, the walls, lined with tvs and beer selection so looks like a little sports bar/restaurant. I really can't wait to try the crispy chicken tho.

Because that's what this is for is to review the actual food that the consumer consumes. I got my wings delivered door dash roughly 10:45pm opened the box and the presentation was nice they have little slots for the ranch cups to sit in and wings actually looked pretty good. Now, have you ever gotten grocery store bagged chicken wings and you cook them in the oven for not long enough and the breading is soggy and chicken is chewy and undercooked? That's what this was like. I immediately thought," well maybe they aren't all like this." No, they were all like that. I got the Cajun wings, now myself I like wings with some crunch to them like Ale Emporium has a phenomenal wing. This place has no business making wings flavor was garbage tasted like someone sprinkled lowrys on a wing and tried pulling it off. This isn't the worst part. Come 1am I was doing the bathroom dance sick as could be then lost a days worth of work because I had food poisoning the entire following day. Long story short. There are plenty of great places in the Castleton Area to get wings. DO NOT MAKE THIS A PLACE FOR WINGS!!! YOU MAY BE DOING THE BATHROOM DANCE AT 1am like I was!

The food was all fried and placed in "unvented" styrofoam containers and double tied in a plastic bag.

I ordered online, came through the drive through and after saying my name 5 times they finally said pull up. I asked if there was a spoon in there ( i had mashed potatoes), she immediately said yea. I sat at the drivethru and opened the bag to look and there was no spoon so I asked her for one and she shut the window. I didn't see any napkin either so I waited right there till she reluctantly opened the window and I said there are no napkins and asked can I have some. She handed my the napkins and closed the window of corse glaring at me the whole time like I had personal offended her. Now to the food, I asked for the sauce on the side since I was using a new sauce I've never tried and off corse the boneless wings were swimming in the sauce and of course it was a disgusting sauce. The sauce was honey lemon and it tasted like the fake lemon in sour candy. The only decent part of the meal was the mashed potatoes... which I would not be able to eat without a spoon!

Visited snow crab, juicy seafood for the first time. It is on Allisonville Road by Castleton Mall…read more The atmosphere is extremely casual. A lot of writing on the walls. We ordered the combo special number F for $39.99. It came with one lobster tail, half a pound of snow, crab legs, and half a pound of shrimp. We added half a pound of sausage for an additional $7.99. The combo came with one corn and two potatoes. We also added an additional corn for $1.25. You pick your own seasoning with options of Cajun, Garlic Butter, Garlic Butter with Seasoning, or the Juicy Sauce (which is all of the above). We ordered the juicy sauce. You also select your spice level from mild, medium, hot and extra hot. We got the medium. Your dinner is served in a large boil bag. Dinner comes with a bib and gloves to wear while eating. Did I mention this was extremely casual? The food was served, hot and cooked to order. It had a good flavor. The medium was not very spicy in our opinion. We will probably try the hot the next time. I know snow crabs are tiny and a lot of work, but these were very tiny and a whole lot of work. We probably will not get them with our order next time. All that said, the food had a good taste. Very messy so be prepared. Service was good and our waiter was very friendly. He made good suggestions on the menu. The bill was accurate.

If it weren't for John P., I wouldn't order this 4x per week to the office for the last 2 years,…read morebut he's such a good representative for CT I just want to chat with him every day. I'd gamble that I am the number 1 most frequent purchaser at this location. Not like "oh I order it a lot" but actually the number 1 purchaser, so here is my honest to goodness assessment of this establishment: 1.) Without a doubt the best customer service experience you've ever had. They ALWAYS respond, with a person and they ALWAYS solve any (rare) issue. If you still use DoorDash or UberEats then I must assume that you are into masochism and enjoy the miserable, awful experience with them. 2.) Everything is good. Given my reign as "#1 CT'er of Castleton Location", I've had at least 20 different menu items. I've had each of them more than once. If this review gets enough love, I'll release my coveted "Power Rankings" of the menu items, but for the sake of this review, I'll tell you that you can't go wrong with any of their pizza options or anything with chicken. The common denominator here is THEIR UNBELIEVABLE, CONSISTENTLY POURED cups of ranch dressing. I've only had two better cups of ranch in my life, but those are more like exotic treats than a daily driver ranch. Anyway, order everything. 3.) Their drivers are WAY happier, WAY more helpful, and WAY more focused on delivering food with a smile on their face. They give the company a good boots on the ground presence and represent the company well. The enthusiastic "Enjoy your fooooood!" that Wayyuan gives with EVERY delivery makes you feel like a kid on Christmas. Guaranteed to make you smile. Matthew, Mark and John are like "The Gospel" of food delivery (Sorry, never had a Luke)...much like the Good Book, John stands out. I'd like to take this time and this platform to bring something to attention. JOHN P. IS THE GREATEST DELIVERY DRIVER IN THE MIDWEST, MAYBE IN THE ENTIRE UNITES STATES OF AMERICA. I've written to the DDAOA (Delivery Drivers Association of America...think The Oscars for drivers) and they've assured me he's going to win the Award this year. All in all, I love this place.
