    This is Austin.  the guy that should be fired.

    I would give zero stars if I could. To keep it simple as possibly, a very close friend passed away and we had his memorial service today. We all decided to go to Oscar's for a drink and food to keep the mood light. The bartender AUSTIN was rude and terrible, making comments like his day was better a few minutes before our group walked in. I asked for a burger with a double patty, he said it was fine and started to put my order in. I realized it was busy and didn't want to inconvenience them. I got his attention and nicely said "I'm actually going to just do a single Patty I'm sorry buddy." I got a response of "Oh my fucking god!" And then proceeds to rush to the kitchen and shove the kitchen door open. Austin terrible bartender. Austin terrible customer service. Austin should be fired. Austin should be fired.

    We liked this restaurant. Food was good. Service was a little slow and could have been friendlier but it was okay. Nice variety on the menu. The endless fries were a hit!

    This updated review is long overdue. Oscar's has changed a lot since my first review. I went from barely going to being almost a regular there. The interior atmosphere has changed. They got rid of the fish tank and the fake fish hanging from the ceiling. The crowd has changed a lot too. It's now a bit more of an older more settled crowd. The food here is pretty good. One of favorite to snack on items is the cheese curds. They're just really good. I've had multiple burgers and sandwiches there and why it's nothing to brag about, they were better than average. What I really like is coming here for Football. It's great! They have a lot of TVs and the games will be on different ones. Then you can get one of their wireless speakers for your table so that if your team isn't the one they have the sound turned on to, you can still hear it. BONUS! They have different specials during the week and themed parties. We went to a Zombie Prom themed party the other night just had a blast. The service can be hit or miss, just like a lot of places. They have their good waitresses and their less than stellar ones. We have our favorites. I'm not going to say who because I really don't want everyone coming in hogging them! So Yea, Oscar's made some changes and I need to give them a couple of extra stars for the adjustments.

    Well, I've been coming here over 14 years. I've always gotten the same thing. All you can eat walleye. A while ago they changed the breading. I hate it, but I just peel it away and all is good. Tonight we came in again and I asked, as I always do, "am I able to have it dipped in the Tempura?". It's sometimes yes and sometimes no. Waitress came back and said no. Hubs ordered all you can eat haddock. It came out in the tempura batter I love!!!! Mine was the nasty stuff that hurts the roof of my mouth. I was a little mad. Then I tasted my walleye. For the first time ever...2x a month x 14+ years...it was fishy and a little slimy. Not my bag. Who is doing quality control? Yeah...tonight was a total bust. Service was slow, too and it wasn't packed. Must be a new crew. Not happy at all.

    Everyone Deserves a second Chance…read more I visited PSB on my lunch because they have a Plant based Gyro and that in itself is very difficult to find. They were steady for lunch but not nearly as busy as I expected at 1230 on a Friday. I sat at the bar, and the bartender was very nice. She was very polite and attentive. I ordered the one thing I came for (obviously), and was surprised by how quickly It was ready. Something I appreciated as I was on lunch at work, so I had limited time to begin with. The Gyro was delicious! I got their pickled onions on the side as I wasn't sure how strong they'd be. They were actually very good and an excellent compliment to the gyro itself. The Gyro was served with Potato Wedges. These I could have done without, they differed in size so the cook was drastically different depending on which one you got. The small ones were almost over done and the large ones weren't cooked enough. The Sandwich was definitely the highlight of my meal. This place is so cool, Such a beautiful building with amazing outdoor seating. My other complaint is the price. $20+ for a sandwich (after tax) is outrageous. I am very happy to have tried it, It was delicious. I most likely won't go back for that sandwich though. Too many options around at a fraction of the price. This place definitely deserves to be tried by everyone. They are one of the best spots in all of Rockford.

She was warm, attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was perfect throughout the evening. She handled our group with ease, anticipated our needs, and made us all feel welcome. Outstanding service like Julia's is what turns a good meal into a great experience. Thank you, Julia--we'll definitely be back! The food was every bit as impressive as the service. Everything our group ordered was prepared well and served hot. The burgers were cooked exactly as requested and were absolutely delicious. I chose the grilled chicken with vegetables instead of fries--a healthier option--and it was tender, flavorful, and satisfying. One person in our party ordered the sturgeon special and couldn't stop talking about how delicious it was. Then came the dessert tray...wow! There were so many tempting choices that it was hard to decide. I had the berry layered cake, which was moist, flavorful, and the perfect finish to the meal. Another person chose the cheesecake, and the generous slice was rich, creamy, and full of flavor. Great food, generous portions, outstanding desserts, and exceptional service from Julia made this a great evening. We look forward to coming back!
