We were recommend this place by a gal who lives in Traverse City that we met earlier in the day…read more She said it is a place that the locals frequent and that we should order the gyro and wings. We were able to get two seats at the bar on a busy Friday night. The bartenders were fantastic...so friendly, fast, and attentive to all at the bar that it was impressive. We had a couple of drinks and the gyro and wings. Both were really good. The gyro was full of meat and the pita fluffy. The wings were perfectly juicy and the sauce was tasty. I only wish they had an option to order a smaller amount. 8 is a lot for us at a sitting, but because they were so good, we took them to the hotel and ate them the next day. The energy of the place is great. Highly recommend.

Every…read morestore, restaurant, and patch of sidewalk is packed. *That being said* this place has a tacky, sticky vibe. I walked through the door and patrons were throwing popcorn at each other, dipping napkins in beer, and screaming hoarse obscenities at waitstaff. I understand it is a bar, but I didn't expect to find this in Traverse City. We sat down on the other side of the restaurant--"Doublewide" means there are two restaurants in one building, haha--and waited maybe ten minutes for someone to come take our drink order. My dad's drink order came out wrong and ended up being for the man seated behind us, but that wasn't much of a concern; it happens from time to time at different restaurants, so we didn't think much of it. It was only when we ordered and waited ~1.5 hours for our /appetizer/ that things began to look like a problem. Our waitress was very sweet--small, black hair, and too polite for a job like that. She kept saying that the kitchen was behind and they had a lot of orders, and I believed her; a dingy bar-style restaurant probably doesn't have Michelin cooks to begin with, and then you overwhelm them with a weeks worth of tourism? Anyway I don't remember her name but girlie I'm blowing you a kiss I hope you find a better job After my dad's third refill, though, we never saw her again. Other tables that had more people and had come in after us were getting their food, but we never saw our waitress to ask, and this clearly bothered the man seated behind us (the man who you'll recall had swapped drinks with us, party of one, and hadn't gotten his food either). He, my dad, and I asked another waitress how much longer the food would take and she said she would check, but she came back several times with ambiguous answers and never told us. I never expected to spend so long waiting for food. Again, at this point, all we have received is an iced tea and a water. I have medicine I take for my seizures and a neurological condition and did not take them into the restaurant with me because I did not expect to spend two hours twiddling my thumbs. I told the waitress if she didn't have a solid timetable I would have to leave because I had medicine I had to take, and pointed at my medical bracelet. She scoffed and turned away, and did not answer my question. Anyway, we left six dollars for the iced tea and left because girl what are we doing

The playlist was awesome and not super loud, and we got to catch some of the Olympics on the TVs at the bar. They do serve food at this bar, which I'd be interested in trying. I'd definitely come back to Dillinger's in the future, and if I lived nearby, it would be a go-to spot for me.

We sat at the bar and had the BEST service from Fred. He introduced himself, asked our names, and shook our hands. He gave us a rundown of the daily specials and let us settle in. He continued to give exceptional service the whole time we were there, even when it got busy. He greeted everyone by name and was just a gem. I'd come back just to chat with Fred again! On to our meal - I had a spicy margarita that was very tasty and refreshing. We ordered the EOD, the (deviled) egg of the day that changes regularly - the version on this day had andouille, coleslaw, and remoulade. We also got an order of the chicken tenders to share. I loved that they have so many sauce options. Then came the next best thing about Lil Bo's - the bar trays! They sit on the slope of the bar so you can have a level surface for your food. I'd never seen this before and thought it was genius. The food was tasty - Nate liked the deviled eggs, and the chicken tenders were hot and fresh. They were not the best I've ever had, but certainly not the worst. They were super crispy but just a tad dry. I was hoping to go back later in the evening for Sunday karaoke, but that didn't happen. I will be back!

Our bartender brought us extended tables, the bar staff was friendly, and the food was good - all in all a nice win for our brief stay in town.
