Just wow. Close this…read moreplace or get a manager. In short. A Sunday evening. Stopped in for a bit of food. And let's give the food the 3 stars it deserves. It was OK. Exactly what you would expect from any fast food place that turns over cooks as fast as it turns over burgers. But this is a restaurant. Yeah, it is a country-themed, big, and wooden hunting-style restaurant. With absolutely nothing Big, Hunted, or Country on the menu. There is no heart here. Just whatever you could pick up for quick reheating from Sysco or Costco. And service... well, the most service we received was when one person stopped by long enough to ask us if our server had been by to get our payment. When we told her no... she didn't take our payment... she just said, "it figures" and presumably told the kid waiting on us. After she finished what she was doing with her tables, of course. Moral of the story... just go somewhere else. It will be a long drive to get to the next place. But you will enjoy it more.

Stopped after visiting Cedar Cove Cat Sanctuary (highly recommend!) while visiting my parents…read more Restaurant is very large with a ton of tvs and a bar area. Menu was mostly classic midwest/southern fare (not my personal fav). We split the pretzels and queso appetizer - so good! My husband had the chicken fried steak with mashed potatos and broccoli. He enjoyed all of it, but found the roll very bland. It also came with a cup of the soup of the day or salad - soup was a white chicken chili which was surprisingly delicious! My dad had a hot beef sandwich, which he enjoyed. Mom had sliders and onion rings and brought some leftovers home. The onion rings were very tasty! Service was amazing, staff was very attentive. We were there during a lull between lunch and dinner and there were maybe 3-4 other tables. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves!

We also had the cheese curds and FYI they are a bit spicy! The kids mac & cheese is huge and the chicken tenders along with the pork tenderloin or hand breaded Fries were good. Hamburger was good.

Staff gets high marks - our server did a fantastic job on a busy Friday evening…read more Salads were really fresh and they tasted as good as they looked (FYI, the large is really large!). The pizza was good, but not awesome (crust was a little too thin and bland for our taste). Our nachos were cold and the chips were on the stale side, so that wasn't a big win either. Overall, the food we tried was a 3, but the service and vibe were a 4. The place was definitely hopping and the wait staff was slammed; however, everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves, which is a high plus in a neighborhood spot! We'd like to go back and be impressed with their food (we will probably try something different). It would also probably help to show up any other time than a Friday night for dinner to give them the best chance to shine.

That burger, though...it's veen over 24 hours and I'm still drooling a little. Our server hardly spoke to us, which was odd as the music was quiet and they weren't busy. Maybe because we ordered a meal to share and no beer? It's just what we do, so we can have dessert. Haha! But we tipped 50%,because that is also what we do. Atmosphere as expected for a bar, dark and not overly cheerful...but that burger! I'd go again just to taste it one more time.

It has a small town feel but definitely where the locals go which is cool to see. The food quantity was large and piping fresh and hot while the beer was ice cold (colder than most places which is top notch!). You can tell they do a good job with the beer lines because it taste great. Our waitress was really nice and helpful as well! They have lots of different choices of fries and I got to try a little bit of all of them from my order and my friends orders and it's hard to choose!! We had burgers and fried pork tenderloin. Everything was great. Big tv, pool table, and some other entertainment so they have it all.

Our waitress was very friendly and was checking in on us. The wait time for your food is quite long so I recommend getting an appetizer. I absolutely love their boneless wings and the cheesy bread was a lot more than we expected. The fish and chips was also like no other, it was seasoned thoroughly and cooked perfectly. As a pepper jack girly, I also loved the pepper jack bites. They have many cocktails options and the prices are fairly reasonable. I'd definitely recommend stopping by here if you have a chance.
