Onion straws were burnt to dark brown-to black. The order should never been delivered to a customer. Never saw wait staff until she wanted to close the check. Told her politely about the onion straws and the un-eaten burger. She apologized and said would " discount" the order. Apparently I got a dollar discount, she should have kept the dollar because they will not be getting any business from us.

Cunningham's on the Lake We're visiting family friends who…read morelove this place, so we were excited to try it. Visually, it's a great spot--beautiful inside and out, an amazing patio, lots of TVs, and an impressive bar with 48 beers on tap plus beer flights. Unfortunately, during our visit, both the food and service fell short. We started with the pork belly bites. They were okay, but the texture wasn't what we're used to--we typically prefer them cooked a bit more. We also ordered the crab cakes, which came as three large pieces on a bed of lettuce (basically a big house salad). After a few bites, we realized they were ice cold. We let the bartender know and they were sent back, but they came out ice cold again. To their credit, they removed the item from our bill, which we appreciated. We then ordered a burger. The patty was very thick and had potential, but the fries were ice cold. Service slowed at this point--it took a long time to get ketchup or any follow-up. We noticed staff eating in a booth behind us while two employees behind the bar appeared busy, which was disappointing. The beer selection is excellent, but my Dirty Shirley tasted off. I switched to a Tito's and Sprite, but it still didn't taste right--likely flat soda that hadn't been changed. Overall, the patio and beer selection are highlights, but the execution on food and service missed the mark on this visit. Based on this experience, I'd give it 2 stars. Glad I didn't order the steak, as I think I would have been disappointed. -- Foodie99

Excellent lunch spot--sports bar…read more This part of town (S Locust) doesn't have a lot in the beer n burgers category (Ruby Tuesdays Applebees all that are on the other side of town) yet this is an area with a lot of hotels and the race track. Sluggers is a hole-in-the-wall mid-sixties concrete block type of place (ie not impressive from outside), but they have really good char-burgers, steak sandwiches, Polish sausages--and an excellent selection of draft beers too--Guinness, Fat Tire, Boulevard, Blue Moon, Sam Adams. You can even get a bottle of VT hard cider, damn this place has it covered. A cool place to watch a game or play pool (2 tables) but it does a good lunch bizness and they are freakin friendly too.

Even though it sits right off I-80 in Grand Island, NE, the race-car theme inside gives it a fun, lively vibe, and the place itself was spotless, well-maintained, and very organized. We were promptly greeted by Ms. Heather, the hostess, who was polite, cheerful, and welcomed us with a sweet smile before leading us to a booth in Ms. Hailey's section. Ms. Hailey was bubbly, friendly, and incredibly efficient--no movement wasted. She took our drink and food orders and even repeated everything back to make sure it was perfect. My sister ordered the All-American Cheeseburger with bacon on a buttered, grilled brioche bun with lettuce, red onion, tomato, and dill pickles, plus a side of seasoned fries ($14.50). The fries were crispy, well-seasoned, and very tasty. I went with the Farmhouse Burger topped with melted American cheese and a fried egg ($18.00). The flavors were spot on and the egg was cooked perfectly, though the beef patty was just a bit dry. We also shared the Wings Snack ($8.50) and an order of Onion Rings ($5.50). The wings were cooked perfectly and full of flavor, though they were a little heavy on the BBQ sauce. The onion rings, however, were outstanding--super crispy, well-seasoned, and honestly the best onion rings I've ever had. Overall, this restaurant was a great experience. The staff was friendly, helpful, and very professional. If I ever find myself back in Nebraska, I will definitely be stopping here again.

It was a typical bar scene you would expect. I had the full size nachos and I added the beer cheese for a $1. It was good the jalapeños were very spicy haha, so if you like spice get the jalapeños, if not I would get them on the side. My daughter got the half order and it was still a decent size. I like the flavor of the meat and it was full of toppings. My wife and mom shared a large supreme pizza on thin crust. It was a smaller size pizza. To me it was more like the size of a medium. So if you are hungry or trying to share with more people I would get a couple or get some appetizers to start with. I did have a slice and it was good, it had a lot of toppings. It was a good place to go for a bite and drink if you are out of town and staying close by. I would recommend this place.

Had the pleasure of dining in Grand Island and was craving wings. Never found wings quite like…read morethis in Omaha so I was pretty happy to find the spot. The photo of the wings is a 6 count dirty reaper which came near the end of a 3 hour stay waiting on my colleague to pick me up from a family emergency. That was a 'to-go' box, but I literally finished it before I left bc I was excited to try the 2nd batch. When I first got in I ordered the side salad in the photo (which was only $3.50 including toppings btw) shortly after came my the first round of 6 dirty Alberta wings which I forgot to take a picture of. Wings were lightly battered, and came with an incredible glazed sauce - lightly sweet with a kick ( I swear they included a few 'Sweet Heat jalapeños' if you've ever bought a jar of those - kind of like cowboy candy jalapeños. Not as spicy as it sounds). The wings were served with a literal sauce bottle of ranch and a dipping cup so you could pour as much of it as you wanted. Later on, I got brave and ordered the Reaper flavor, which did not leave me sweating so I was a little let down tbh haha. Palatable for most people I'd say given the expectation. Bartenders kept my cup full and were mostly attentive, it was Saturday night so saw a variety of locals come and go. On a Saturday the price is $1.50 per wing before 6pm, I happened to arrive at like 6:30 so was a little disappointed that I didn't make it in time. 6 wings were $10 but plus the salad was about $13.50 not including tax. Not bad - the alcohol adds up though. Spent over 3 hours by myself and came out to about $50 for the evening. Overall would return in a heartbeat from the prices and serving size alone in today's economy from what I saw on the rest of the menu. Plenty of opportunity to meet other people if you're social on a weekend night.
