    My family and I were heading south from Milwaukee on a Friday night and I wanted to pick up a fish fry along the way. Joey's West is a place I had bookmarked and wasn't super far off the highway, so we called in an order to go. I got the lake perch with fries and the rest of my family got plain cheeseburgers with fries. We also got an order of cheese curds to share. Both the cheese curds and the lake perch tasted like the oil they were cooked in hadn't been changed in weeks. It kind of had a burned taste to it. Additionally, the cheese curds were maybe the greasiest ones I've ever had. Both were unappetizing. The burgers seems like they were hand pattied, which is a plus, but were heavily seasoned with something like McCormick steak seasoning. Ironically, the fries had no seasoning or salt on them and could have definitely used some. To a lesser extent I could taste the burned oil on the fries too.

    I got to check out Joey's West and have to say I was surprised. The exterior is very unassuming. Food: The quality was really good. I did think the portion sizing and the overall quality were great! Service: Our waitress really checked in a lot and was very attentive to our needs. Atmosphere: The inside really matched the vibe and how the staff were. I really felt like the staff wanted our visit to be a good one. Have to say that is great as not all businesses operate this way. Overall, I will say give Joeys West a try it will surprise you and will most likely want to come back again.

    Date of visit: 12/1/22 When my boss shockingly suggested a meal out with him and my direct reports (probably in lieu of an in-office gathering where he feared I might spill too much tea), I did some searching around to find a place that fellow Yelpers seemed to like and this place was near the top of the list. It is essentially a townie bar, so adjust your expectations accordingly. But like many other townie bars, they have decent food. My chicken Caesar wrap was excellent and they didn't let me down with the sweet potato fries, either! Bonus points for airing old game shows--I hadn't seen Press Your Luck in years and marveled at how dated it looks all these years later. Really the only thing keeping Joey's West from five stars is service. It was a bit slow and I would have wanted some of the desserts listed on the board, but we weren't asked about it.

    You can't judge a book by its cover. The service and the food here was great! I don't mind the outside looks go on in and enjoy.

    Skip this place if your not a REGULAR

    I stopped by this place for an adult cocktail as I drove past it thinking that I get a new experience in a place that I have never been to. The place is a bar/restaurant which is nothing fancy and just a small town bar. The bar and hi tables were packed for a Saturday around 1pm so the food must be ok because mostly everyone was eating. My service su#ked because I sat at the bar for 5 minutes with the two women bartenders walking past me numerous times chatting with the regulars and changing a garbage can while not acknowledging me at all, no hi I'll be with in a moment, not even a look at me. My cash money is green so I left and took it to the old bar down the street. April down the street acknowledge me as I walked in and got a $10 tip on my drink when I left. The bartenders who completely ignored me lost out on a $10 tip that a bartender down the street got. These two smart bartenders who completely ignored me don't realize that the money easily walks out the door and you loose the sale and the tip so thanks ladies for playing stupid gamed and winning stupid prizes . Thanks for April getting your $10 tip, I'm sure she's happy I left and stopped by her bar.

    Surprisingly great food! Only downside was that they didn't have any high chairs, but we weren't really expecting them to.

    By far my favorite spot in Racine for wings. Their famous grilled wings are to die for - added tip,…read moremake sure to get a side of mild sauce for dipping. It definitely gives sports bar vibes with all the tvs and cheap menus and what not, but this is why I love this place. Service is typically good and what you would expect and they always have some deals going on. Definitely recommend going for a football game, but of course, you will be waiting a little longer.

    A girlfriend and I decided to grab something for lunch and neither of us had ever been to Buckets…read more When you first walked into the restaurant there was a very strong smell of cigarette smoke. There didn't seem to be anyone smoking so I am not sure where that smell was coming from. When you walk in you seat yourself and very promptly a very sweet waitress welcomed us and she brought water. I ordered the chicken wings, and my gf ordered a breakfast burger and we ordered some fried cheese curds. The cheese curds were amazing. Honestly the best I have ever eaten. The coating on the curds was very light, basically a dusting of coating but they were delicious. My gf's burger looked good and she said it tasted good too it had a soft egg, bacon and cheddar cheese on it. You could see the egg running down the sides of the burger. I got my chicken wings just fried with teriyaki sauce on the side. The wings were pretty good with no real coating on the chicken. The chicken was good but nothing spectacular. The best part of the whole lunch was the fantastic waitress welcomed us had. Lunch was by all means good, if I had just had the curds I would have said it was the very best. The other foods brought it down a notch but I would go back and try something else!
