Quaint restaurant and bar in the heart of downtown Bolivar. Great staff, well done (and…read moreaffordable) cocktails, and an appealing menu. The tempura asparagus was fantastic, extremely lightly breaded giving just the right amount of extra crunch. The watermelon salad was refreshing. The bourbon burger was nice but slightly dry.

Truly wanted to love this place and support a small local business. I don't think I have ever had a…read moreworse experience and wish I could give zero stars. Everything from start to finish was a disaster. I don't mind reasonable wait times but this was beyond ridiculous. There is something seriously wrong with this place and it will only take five minutes of observation (while you're waiting at the door, at the table, or to pay) to realize it starts at the top with the owner/manager running around micromanaging everything and making excuses. Food is far from fresh and this is not a scratch kitchen like they claim. Everything cooked from frozen or canned then smothered in chopped raw garlic. If cooking from frozen is meant to save time in the kitchen, it's not working. Drinks were okay, but couldn't taste the alcohol so not sure if I ordered a mocktail or cocktail. Never did get the wine I ordered or even confirmation that they serve wine. The ambiance was awful. Fake plants on the tables, zero artwork on the walls and the playlist was obnoxious and cutting in and out every 30-40 seconds, which was maddening! This place needs a full overhaul and someone who knows what they are doing to right the ship. It's not for lack of effort or passion which they seem to have, just very misguided on how to run a restaurant/bar/kitchen. Avoid this place, I'm hoping for the best for them but I don't think our experience was a one-off. Skeptical of the authenticity of the many ridiculous 4-5 star reviews.

Read some great reviews on their super delicious sandwiches and amazing service. Had to come check them out. They are a small family-owned restaurant serving the community since 2021.

Menu has a variety of exquisite and elevated selection of sandwiches (see list below), salads (house, chef, spinach), sides (potato or pasta salad, mac n cheese, chili mac), chips and drinks, and kids portions.

Interior was clean and well kept. Atmosphere was quaint and cozy. Gabby took our order. She was super nice and friendly. Service was great. Thank you Gabby! We got two sandwiches + chips and an order of mac n cheese. I got the Tony's Club with sauce on side. OMG, what an amazing sandwich! I can taste the freshness of every ingredient. Smokiness of the turkey came through. Candied cajun bacon was yummy. The rest of the ingredients (pepperjack, garlic pepper aioli, tomato-vinaigrette, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle) complemented one another nicely. It was indeed deliciously different! My eldest daughter got the Chicken Bacon Ranch that came with smoked chicken, bacon, jalapeno, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle, pepperjack, and ranch. I got to taste one bite of it. It was pretty good. Both my daughter and I approve. Side of mac n cheese was just okay. Didn't give us any WOW factor. So glad we found Twisted Tony's and got to try them on our Route 66 Centennial Celebration road trip in June 2026. Thank you for sharing your super-licious sandwiches with us. Highly recommend!
