Highly recommended as a chill bar and generous pours. Nice deck too.

The building has to be over 125 years old. As my friend said, you know if people was their hands because the only sink is just outside the restrooms. Despite the buildings dated charm, it was clean. Our server took our order quickly and the food came soon after, and boy did the food come. Three of us ordered two cheeseburgers and an order of half and half - cheeseballs and french fries. I ordered a cheeseburger for myself and my friend and his cousin split a cheeseburger. The portions are enormous. The half and half filled a regular sized dinner plate and was spilling off the sides. The burger hung off the bun by a couple inches on all sides. Food taste was fine. The cheeseballs and fries tasted like typical Sysco or US Foods. Nothing fancy or notable other than the price and the size of the order. The burger was also good not really great. Decently seasoned, cooked to medium/medium well, I prefer mine closer to medium rare. This too was memorable due to the size and price. $7.50 for an 11 ounce cheeseburger is unheard of anymore and $8 for two full pounds of fries and cheese curds is CRAZY! You definitely get your moneys worth here. Bottom line: Good food Enormous portions (That make it the real reason to come her) Great value

In my younger days, I always went to Malarky's for a night out but never eaten there. I was back in…read morenorthwest Iowa for a weekend, and so my mom and I decided to go, since we'd both heard how good the food was. We got there about 7 pm on Friday night and it was reasonably busy, though most people were already eating. There were several open tables, but only a few were clean, so we found one and sat. Things started off well enough--the server was friendly, told us about the specials, and brought us each a water right away. We ordered our food, and I had ordered mine without onion, as well as a salad. The order took a while--which again, Friday night, somewhat busy, so that's ok. When the food arrived, it was not good. My entree had tons of onion, and even though I removed them, it still tasted very onion-y, as something covered in grilled onions tends to be. It was also not hot, at all, and my fries were not hot as well. My mom had fish with hash browns, and her fish was somewhat warm, but hash browns were not. Not sure how long our food sat after being done, but obviously quite a while. My salad, which arrived at the same time as our meal, had no dressing, and we needed to flag down our server to get it, as she never stopped back at our table to check on us. I ended up not eating most of my entree and just eating the salad. We were very disappointed as we had been really looking forward to the meal, and I feel like if the food would have been prepared correctly--and served hot--it could have been great. Unfortunately, I don't think we will take the chance again.

Their Bloody Mary was named the best in the state by Absolút Vodka. Ask for it extra spicy if you like a good kick. Bartenders know obscure shots and drinks so nothing is off the menu. Named in the Top 100 College Bars for Bros by BroBible, momentos of USD's past are displayed behind the bar. The booths are small, but every seat tells a story as students have carved their initials into the wood. The outdoor patio is spacious and a great place to hang out when it's warm. They do not serve food and take cash only (there is an ATM inside). However, you are allowed to bring food from other restaurants inside to eat. You can also purchase a mix-and-match six pack to-go. No stop in Vermillion is complete without a drink at Carey's.
