    Kremer's has the best hamburger around town. It is a real treat to eat here. You get plenty to eat and it is a real treat.

    Again, Krekels can't be outdone. Just too good. I had the crazy craving for it yesterday. Nothing would suffice except for double cheese.

    Cannot tell you how much this fried chicken sandwich and hand-breaded catfish filets are still on…read moremy mind 3 days later MMMMMmmmmmm The Burger Barn/Sue's Snow Cones are located in the parking lot of a drive through liquor store; Don't blink or you might have to pull a u-turn. Luckily, you should be able to see the bright red barn in the corner of the parker lot with it's inviting menu and delicious smells! Vern and Sue are the owners, and they just opened to the public! He, a former restaurant owner, and she, a chef and business woman, are starting this new food truck (barn on a trailer) and have an incredible menu! They have an assortment of tenderloins, fries, friend chicken, fried catfish, catfish nuggets, burgers, and tons of flavors of snow cones! Most items come as sandwiches or dinners. This is all fresh and made to order so pop into the liquor store, play a couple slots or grab an adult beverage inside while you wait. They do have drinks for sale too but get the snow cone for $2- it will be just as refreshing as a beverage! Everything is very reasonably priced for a local business and if you have $10, you won't go away hungry from here! Don't be surprised if they have some rotating special menu items, but check their facebook page for specials and special events where Sue will be dishing up Snow Cones around town! https://www.facebook.com/The-Burger-BarnSues-Snow-Cones-100681015550120 Catfish Sandwich: Holy Catfish, this thing was huge! We got 2 of the biggest, juiciest filets of catfish I've ever seen and I swear this is the best I've ever had! Still drooling over the amazing cornbread breading and perfectly deep-fried moist catfish. Mmm! Fried Chicken: This breading is incredible! It must have some sort of leavening agent as it is so light and fluffy and crispy goodness (but isn't heavy like chicken chains!). Would 100% recommend to anyone trying to get a fix of a chicken sandwich; You can customize all the toppics (pickles, onions, tomato slices, etc. plus packets of every sauce you can imagine!). I loved it and would definitely go back! Highly recommend 5 Stars!

    Ambiance: nice sports bar. Plenty of big TVs. Zero complaints. (4/5)…read more Service: great. Very friendly and helpful. Was checked on periodically which was nice. (5/5) Food: had the wings. They were fine. Menu says house made ranch but it was ok. Didn't really taste like homemade / house made. Wings were good size. Got the garlic parm. Tasted like most other places. My complaint is that they tasted a little under cooked. There wasn't any pink but it was border line. Then tried the traditional "hotshots famous " wing sauce. But.. I got them "trashed". Which is double dipped and fried. I really wanted to like these but they just didn't taste like traditional buffalo sauce (franks hot sauce, butter and vinegar). But the biggest issue was the up-charge. The menu says for trashed, it's "$2 extra" but.... I was charge $2/wing! I hope mgmt fixes that. With all that said, I'd like to try again but maybe a burger next time.

    Food was amazing, service was amazing. The nightly waitress is just so sweet and informative. I…read morehighly recommend this little spot. We got "The woody burger": it features grilled cheese as the buns for each bun. We also got a frisco melt and the soft pretzels with cheese sauce. Generous liquor/bar selection and many food options. Though we came close to closing, our food was top notch, the chef was amazing. It is cash only but they have an atm inside. Table seating and bar/high stool table sitting. Overall a great atmosphere.

It also has a few options for vegetarians. A kind of cramped place so it always has a crowd. The prices aren't that bad for the quality and service. A lack of fancier restaurants around here in a town that mostly has chains. It's more of a kind of classier sports bar and grill. The atmosphere is pretty good because it's one of the few happening places around here. A place where one can watch a game and get craft cocktails as well as well cooked burgers. There's also plenty of meal sized salads for healthier options. It's about $12 for a basic cocktail. They have a pretty okay amount of spirits including whiskeys. It's about $10 for an Impossible Burger. We got these and had to choose our toppings. Also these come with a side such as fries. Pretty good amount of food for an okay price. Among the other items on the menu is fish. They have plenty of burgers as well as Po Boy sandwiches. Also there's soups and plenty of shareable appetizers. They also have desserts such as pie. For sure it's one of the nicer restaurants in the area. It's closed Sundays and Mondays. There's lots of meaty options and some things for vegetarians.

I completely agree with Yelper Al D.'s 'meh' description of their food. I literally |do|not|understand| how my build-your-own (extra cheese, jalapeños, sausage) had NO flavor. I doused it in red pepper flakes and parmesan cheese they brought to the table and still nothing. My wings were fried and tossed in buffalo sauce and served with blue cheese. From the picture I added to Yelp, you'd think they were pretty solid...but my taste buds were equally dismissive. And I also agree with Yelper Angela S. I tried hopping tables to find one that wasn't wobbly before I gave up and stuffed some napkins under one of the legs. As I lifted my head I noticed how many nearby tables had attempted the same thing. IMHO, if you're looking for a venue to watch a game, have a cold, yeasty beverage with friends, and snacks, Draft Sports Bar & Grill will suffice. If you're looking for anything else, best keep driving.

    We had a good time here and would love to try it again…read more Reason for 3 stars is that tables were wobbly (we moved 3 times). Biggest disappointment was that the fries were lukewarm and soggy. They were clearly not fried long enough or temp up correctly. They were also out of the sliced beef tenderloin sandwich, something we came to try. Lots of TVs and seating, large bar area with gaming stations and cool bathroom sinks. They have horseshoes and lots of other good items on the menu that I'd like to come back to and give them another chance to increase their stars.

We arrived as they were opening at 5:00 (we like to eat at old people o'clock) and had a seat. Robbie's is a really nice vibe with a long wooden bar and great artwork on the walls. Our server and service were fantastic, but the food was a disappointment. We both ordered the rib eye and it came with soup or salad, smashed potatoes and asparagus. We had salads with blue cheese dressing. The salad itself was kind of meh-way too many black olives that I wasn't expecting to be on there in the first place, and the blue cheese was so thin and had a vinegar taste to it as well-not great. Our steaks were just ok. Not enough sear on the outside and absolutely no flavor of being seasoned. This is the first time I've had to add salt to a steak in a very long time. Mom ordered rare and I ordered medium and mine came as rare as hers. I asked if I could get another minute or so on mine and they were great about taking care of it. The potatoes and asparagus were delicious. Bernaise sauce was a bit thin but tasty. We had ordered a spiced peach half on the side and it was yummy. I could've had just those and the potatoes and been quite happy! I would come back here and order something different on the menu, but my 3 star rating comes from the disappointment in the steaks. I expected a seared and seasoned melt in my mouth ribeye and was left wanting.

We got there a little after 5:00 and we were impressed as soon as we entered. They had closed all the bar seating so it was just tables for two and four. The lights were dimmed and soft jazz music was playing; creating a very romantic atmosphere. Each table had a single red rose and the TV was "tuned" to a fireplace. Our starter course was champagne accompanied by olive oil and slices of French bread. What a great way to start the evening! We each had filets and both were cooked to perfection. The steaks came by incredible roasted potatoes and mixed vegetables. We both finished our steaks and took home plenty of vegetables for tomorrow. We also had a caramel chocolate cake that looks delicious, but we were too full to eat so it's in our refrigerator waiting for us! Service by Kristi and Rodney was superior, the atmosphere was perfectly romantic and the price was very reasonable. All in all, it was a perfect Valentine's meal!
