Inside had a nice bar in the middle with booths and seating surrounding it. Lots of arcade games, darts, and pool. Took our order as I went with the double cheese and was ready in no time. When I got the burger I couldn't believe how big the Pattie's were. That first bite was phenomenal had the juices dripping. The bun was even toasted which was a nice surprise. I devoured that burger. Many other burger or chicken options too. Definitely with the stop in if you're ever in the Wilmington area!

The bartenders where friendly and very understanding when we went in to tell them 2 days in a row. Looked like a clean, relaxed place to have a beer. Music wasn't blaring the nighst we went in which is a plus in my book. Would stop in for a drink when I have the time soon. They had drink specials posted for every day which is a good thing. I have heard many folks say they have some of the best bloody mary's around and are a special on Sundays. Thanks again Snookers!

We stopped into Top Fuel today to check out their Daytona 500 special -- the Hillbilly Surf & Turf…read more It's a fun combo of a Crawfish Boil served alongside Meatloaf, and it definitely caught our attention. We've been here before for their Friday Fish Fry (which is excellent), so we were looking forward to trying something different. I ordered the Mudbugs (crawfish) only, while my wife ordered the combo with Mudbugs and Meatloaf. The underlying motivation? She doesn't eat Mudbugs -- so I knew I'd be getting a bonus portion. The Mudbugs were cooked from live crawfish and seasoned with a classic Cajun blend. They varied in size but were served in generous one-pound portions. The flavor was fresh, well-seasoned, and exactly what you'd hope for in a good boil. Now, the real surprise was the Meatloaf. My wife loves Meatloaf but is extremely picky about it. I can honestly say she loved this one. After trying a bite myself, I agreed completely. It had a rich, beefy flavor, was moist throughout, and the ends had that perfect crunchy outer crust -- which is always the best part. We also ordered the Jalapeño Poppers. They had a nice crunchy exterior, and the pepper and cream cheese filling was creamy without being overcooked -- a solid appetizer choice. Top Fuel has that fun, laid-back dive bar atmosphere with lots of friendly people just enjoying themselves. It's comfortable, welcoming, and easy to settle in for a while. We'll definitely be back soon.

I went to Symerton Tap for Fish Fry Friday and ordered the grilled cod... and I'm honestly still…read moreprocessing the experience. You know how people say "it's just fish"? Yeah. No. Not this fish. This grilled cod was so perfectly cooked it should probably have its own fan club. Flaky, tender, seasoned just right not dry, not greasy, not pretending to be something it's not. Just confidently amazing. I took one bite and immediately questioned every other piece of grilled cod I've ever eaten in my life. Life-changing? Possibly. Life-altering? Emotionally, yes. It's the kind of meal that makes you stare at your plate for a second and think, "Where have you been all my life?" If you haven't tried the grilled cod at Symerton Tap on Fish Fry Friday, I'm not saying you're doing Fridays wrong... but I am strongly suggesting you fix that immediately. 10/10. Would let this fish ruin all other fish for me again.

Polk-A-Dot is one of the few happening places in Braidwood it seems. A long time favorite of the people who live here. The walls are chock full of memorabilia and miscellaneous stuff that was at one time someone else's junk, and became this place's treasures. As expected, ice cream is the main thing to get. It's unfortunate they're always out of lots of items. There's already not a whole lot of variety. A pretty basic looking menu. There's the hot items including the burgers and hot dogs, along with fries and other sides. Basically we came more for the experience. She got one of the cones, which is about $3 or so. Limited flavors. The last time they only had vanilla. It's about $5 to get the fries and slaw combo. Probably about the only thing that isn't meaty. Basically the memorabilia was more interesting. They appropriately have a Grease poster, along with old timey things like jukeboxes on tables. Outside they have figures you can pose with including James Dean, Elvis, and Marilyn Monroe. This is a cool way to have fun for a few minutes or something. Best thing is the experience to be honest. It's located on Front Street by the tracks. This is one of the few ice cream places that's open even in winter.

No pastrami pancakes here. Bummer. That said, breakfast was basic but good--eggs, bacon, coffee, the classics. Sometimes that's all you really need. The vibe is super local, definitely one of those "everybody knows your name" joints. Felt like I should've walked in wearing a nametag that said "Norm." points because my waitress was a Styx fan--nothing like sipping coffee while talking Come Sail Away. Rock and eggs? Solid combo. tip: you can't add your tip later on the receipt, gotta do it when you ring out. I just left a cash tip--felt right anyway. Kept it homie.Overall?
