They stick to the basics and do them well. The burgers alone make a visit worthwhile. DRINKS: Limited draft beer selection but they have had one or two unique brews on tap (Moose Drool on tap last time I visited-haven't seen that on tap anywhere in a long time!). Anything in a bottle or can will be domestic and in the Bud/Miller families. Full service bar and they poor em stiff! AMBIENCE: Cool feel to the place with lots of exposed brick and the bar itself being a very cool antique looking motif. They have an internet juke box that the patrons keep playing all night long. KID FRIENDLY: Yes. Seen lots and lots of kids eating here with their families but this becomes more of a bar as the night goes on, so beware. OVERALL: Great bar with above average food.

We met the owner, who cooks many of their signature dishes, his daughter who manages the restaurant, and his granddaughter who was the hostess that night. We happened to be traveling through the area, celebrating our 50th anniversary, and they went out of their way to make it a memorable night for us! The restaurant has the feeling of a your smaller, neighborhood Italian restaurant that makes their dishes from recipes that have been passed down from one generation to the next. By the time we left, they made us feel like we were part of their extended family, if only for an evening. And when you're traveling on the road, that's a mighty nice feeling! Do yourself a favor, the next time you are in the area, plan on making this a destination. It's well worth it! (Consider making a reservation or at least calling ahead because they are pretty popular.)

The bad: The wait staff was not very engaged. I wanted this review to be about the food but that just wasn't meant to be. The Ugly: I am very well travelled on 3 continents. I've dined elegantly as well as from street vendors and I have NEVER had service that was this off putting to the point of being overtly rude, and I am an American who has eaten in France and doesn't speak much French. When we wouldn't sit at the bar, even though the main area was only 1/4 occupied They moved our party of 2 into the side room with chairs up on tables. It went downhill from there. Due to this, it wasn't possible to really enjoy what should have been a fine meal. I will say it is a wise policy to ask for payment and tip ahead of this type of service before it is provided.

We walked in and loved to see the plants and the genuine decoration in the place. The woman who took our order was nice and patient. We asked for light ice and were given that. I ordered a dirty chai and YES! Has a great chai flavor and overall lovely balance between sweet and spice. Danny got an Americano which he says is really good and smooth. We even got to draw flowers while waiting for our coffee. It was quick and a great stop for us on our journey. Only comment is we got a sleeve on our cup that was unneeded because we both got iced coffees. We like to reduce waste!! Thanks so much!!!

It's a small place, but they aren't your typical small town bar in that they're trying-between drink specials that aren't too gimmicky ($4 16 oz. Blue Moon draft special with an actual ripe orange peel on the rim of the glass) and friendly staff who are in good moods, as well as a menu that has pretty much any type of appetizer, sandwich, burger, wings you can imagine. Much of the food is fried, but isn't that what bar food is all about? Good curly and regular fries, buffalo chicken sandwich (mild described as tangy), wings and a fish sandwich were hits, as were the fried pickles for an appetizer. If you're ever in Greenup or traveling on I-70 and want to stop in for a good, quick bite to eat, I recommend this place for sure.
