Only a few people were having drink when we came down. Lots of drink options listed on the menu, so everyone could pick something to enjoy (boozy or non alcoholic). Plus they have a good menu for food options too. The bartender was very nice and gave us 1/2 price on a bottle of wine (which we could take back to the room if we were not finished). He also made the best grasshopper milk shake , which was so much better than McDonald's!

The steak itself was good, but I honestly didn't understand the cold liquid/oil it was served floating in. It took away from the dish and was not something I expected. The Brussels sprouts were way too charred and burnt, and they were also dry and lacking flavor. Overall, the food was decent, but for what you actually get, I felt it was overpriced. With so many menu items unavailable and the food not being particularly memorable, I don't feel the experience was worth the price

Super clean and modern on the inside with ample seating booths and tables. Bar top also has tons of seats. I've only been there once but the pizza boasts being the best in the Quad Cities for over 30 years so I had to get it. It's like a dare for pizza lovers. Lol. It was definitely good and I would return. If you like Harris Pizza, you would argue this is not the best. But I might agree that it is the best in the QC (unless you count Frank's in Silvis as QC, then second best). My husband has the burger and fries and gave a thumbs up. I recommend and I will return myself with friends and family.

Hot couple!

I drove by the Wunder Y thousands of times before I knew it was a bar. I'm guessing my experience…read moreis not unique. There's no sign, just a few windows, and with parking in back, most people use the rear entrance. It wouldn't be difficult to mistake the place for something much shadier than what it is. That's not to say, however, that the Wunder Y is without a hint of shady charm. It's rather steeped in it, actually, a dive to the core. Its patrons have made it into somewhat of an underground Moline institution. I'd never heard anyone even mention the Wunder Y, but once my friends and I finally started making the trip, we couldn't go there without running into someone we knew. For this reason, I like to think of it as my own little speakeasy. It's a great place to run into classmates, your old minor league baseball coach, and people that you thought were dead. They're all down at the Wunder Y. The shuffleboard table is a big draw, and I've seen a few people get hustled with it, insofar as you can get hustled at shuffleboard. But if a couple old guys walk up and ask if you and your buddy are up for a game, it's a pretty safe bet that you're going to get your ass whooped. If you're just a spectator, ask if you can operate the ancient scoreboard. That thing's going to be on Antiques Roadshow some day. I should mention that I once hated the Wunder Y. It grows on you a little bit with each visit, though, like a nicotine addiction or a rash. Best dive in the Quad Cities, which is saying something.

Good Beer Served Properly! That used to be the slogan at Fricks Tap. Not anymore!…read more My first time at the newly renovated bar was less friendly! Was upstairs at a party and they only had one bartender for 50 people! Not good! Why was'nt the manager up there helping? I realize that she was extremely busy and was very patient in waiting for her to serve me, but she kept ignoring me! I had to get my drink through friends! The last time I asked for her to serve me a drink she said that she did not have time! Really! Then they made a last call and I asked a second time and she walkEd away! I'm sorry but this is just poor service! I went downstairs to the bar and bought a beer and told the bartender about the poor service upstairs and she apologizEd. Then the manager came to me at the bar and asked me what the problem was. I told him about the poor service upstairs and how the bartender would not serve me! He asked what the reason was! I said I do not know! I was not unkind! I was not intoxicated. She just would not serve me! He said well there must have been a reason, get the F__k out of my bar! This is definitely not how you treat first time customers! This apparently is not a bar where you get good service and not a professional manager! I will never go back and be insulted again!

Was told "sorry, we're all human", zero refunds or adjustments given. This is just part of the terrible experience in addition to bigoted comments about the drag show scheduled to take place that night. Highly recommend avoiding this bar.
