Side of fries
Halie W.

I've visited t the Sandbar a few time while visiting family in town. It can be hit or miss how busy the dinning room is. The tenderloin sliders are best thing on the menu, the tenderloin was cooked perfectly. My husband and I split the sliders and a side of fries for a late night dinner and it was plenty.

Also great craft beer brewed on site.

Another yearly visit to Norfolk. Things seemed to run smoother. Perhaps because the place was packed on a Friday evening. Added a hostess station as opposed to just finding a table. Food good as well. Loaded burger was flavorful. The open face beef sandwich was tasty. Adult beverages (Long Island ice tea) was well done. Just had to walk back to our room.

What a great visit to Big Red's while we stopped over in Norfolk! Very lively sports bar with…read morepersonal televisions in each booth! We weren't there for sports, we were there for lunch; however, we definitely took notice that it would indeed be the place to go for sports. A group of five of us, seated at a table and the only reason I'm docking a star is because we were seated just a few feet away from the Keno ball machine and it was quite unpleasant when it was running, which was during most of our visit. Excellent burgers, pork tenderloin sandwich, hand breaded chicken strips, fries & tater tots! Not a morsel left on anyone's plate! Our service was wonderful and attentive, we were checked in several times and beverages refilled often. We will definitely be back when we return to Norfolk!

We went to have dinner and a few beers. Our waiter was exceptional. However the restaurant…read moreoperations leave the ability do waitstaff to do their job very limited. It really painted a poor picture of the bar. First, when you walk in there appears to be a wide variety of beers and a well stocked bar. However, the bar doesn't provide a printed beer menu nor does it have a QR code one can scan to see the selection. No waitstaff member should be expected to remember the selection of beers, especially since there were some smaller breweries, in theory, represented. I travel a lot, here and abroad and this was the first time I'd ever experienced something this poor. Our guests decided to have martinis after the meal. What should've been a standard order (Grey Goose dirty martinis) was near impossible to get. Our poor waiter had to twice return to our table to tell us the bar didn't have Grey Goose nor did it have vermouth. These are not rare or exceptional things used one in a while in a bar. Grey Goose is a standard upsell from well vodka; and to not have vermouth tells me inventory management is shoddy. We also found out that there were a large number of managers on shift. My experience has been that when a restaurant manager sees or knows one of their waitstaff is struggling due to the restaurant's shortcomings; that manager comes to the table and apologizes. Our poor waiter was constantly stuck as the bearer of bad news and it really was a very poor look for what could be a much better bar experience based upon the interior. Tragically this is one of the few places open on Sunday in Norfolk so you're captive to this bar or fast food when visiting here. We won't be back. This model of business doesn't deserve nor earn success. It negated any promise of value the food may have provided.

I walked in and was not disappointed. Clean, tastefully-decorated, professional staff. They sat me down immediately and let me take a peak at the menu, but I knew what I wanted already. The pork ribeye. The chef himself brought it to the table, he was proud of it and he should be! The seasonal vegetable was zucchini, and while most places just boil or steam it and throw it on a plate, here it was perfectly seasoned and cooked, with a nice bite that other establishments never achieve. How refreshing for it to be respected and not turned into a soggy, tragic affair. The pork ribeye was perfectly grilled and served atop a bed of Parmesan risotto. I hail from Italy and know what risotto should be, and honestly I was blown away at how correct it came. Perfect amount of bite, and the chef restrained from throwing in a thousand "flavor enhancers", wisely letting the flavor of aged parmeggiano dictate the profile of the risotto. And on top of that, an unexpected surprise... "cowboy candy" I focused intensely on divining its components: a sugar base and a spicy pepper... could it be agave, turbinado? The waiter informed me of its name and ingredients when I asked, so now I get to make it at home. Italians would never pair such a garnish with their risotto dish, but I don't care, it went perfectly with the pork ribeye. I did not expect to have such a fulfilling culinary experience out here in a small midwestern town. The United States' haute culinary scene really has exploded over the last decade, and I couldn't be happier about it. Next comes the drinks and dessert: A balanced pear cocktail, of which I had two, and a chocolate caramel bread pudding. That bread pudding put most cakes to shame. Soft enough to eat with a spoon but with an ever so slight chew due to its former life as bread. Sweet but not cloying, allowing the cacao to really announce itself. Easily enough for two to share but I indulged myself, I couldn't bear to waste any of it. The waiter himself, a young man with a warm and bold character, came by many times to be assured I wanted for nothing. I left completely satisfied in a way I have not been for many weeks here in the road across the heartland. When I inevitably return to Norfolk, I know where I'll be having dinner.

The building has to be over 125 years old. As my friend said, you know if people was their hands because the only sink is just outside the restrooms. Despite the buildings dated charm, it was clean. Our server took our order quickly and the food came soon after, and boy did the food come. Three of us ordered two cheeseburgers and an order of half and half - cheeseballs and french fries. I ordered a cheeseburger for myself and my friend and his cousin split a cheeseburger. The portions are enormous. The half and half filled a regular sized dinner plate and was spilling off the sides. The burger hung off the bun by a couple inches on all sides. Food taste was fine. The cheeseballs and fries tasted like typical Sysco or US Foods. Nothing fancy or notable other than the price and the size of the order. The burger was also good not really great. Decently seasoned, cooked to medium/medium well, I prefer mine closer to medium rare. This too was memorable due to the size and price. $7.50 for an 11 ounce cheeseburger is unheard of anymore and $8 for two full pounds of fries and cheese curds is CRAZY! You definitely get your moneys worth here. Bottom line: Good food Enormous portions (That make it the real reason to come her) Great value

I live over in So Dak and make the drive to Martinsburg nearly every month because there is nothing that even begins to compare to Bob's anywhere else in the Tri-State region.

Our server Jeff did seem busy, and was pleasant, but never around. He greeted us and took our order quickly. Then someone else dropped off our entrees (app was supposed to come out first which he clarified with us when we ordered). My order was buffalo wings with a side of buffalo sauce, and the wings came naked with a side. I would have asked for these to be taken back and tossed, but was hungry and ate half of them before we could flag down our server--my husband had finished his entire meal of wings by this time. When we were able to flag him down, I asked for more sauce, and our app. He apologized for this, and brought out the (hot) app very soon after. The wings were ok, and would have been much better if sauced. My husband likes his boneless wings just fine. The cheese curds we got were pretty good--more of a breading than crispy fried texture, but the flavor was great. I would come back and give this place another chance, but in the future will just walk back to a kiosk to find an employee if we have any issues, since we had to wait so long to flag down our server (on our own) for assistance.

As the song goes...."where everyone knows your name." Daily specials are offered Monday-Thursday but unfortunately, our visit was on Friday. We browsed the printed menu and landed on the patty melt and rodeo best burger--a 6 oz. burger jam packed with two types of cheese, mushrooms and all the fixings. It was huge! A side of crinkle cut fries was split between our orders and after seeing the size of the fry order we were glad we decided to share! All burgers on the menu with "rodeo" in the name are 6 oz. in size. A sign on the wall reads, "if you leave hungry it is your fault" and I would tend to agree with the sign's message. Our burgers were juicy, a little messy in a good way, and very filling. Our server was friendly, efficient, and checked on us frequently. We were provided a full set of condiments (see photo) to embellish our already overflowing burgers--something you don't see at your local burger joint. Restrooms needed some updating and attention, but were clean and serviced. We liked the friendly feel and food at the Rodeo Bar and Grill and would recommend it to others--if we keep traveling to northeast Nebraska they may even learn our names.

The food is great and it's probably the best thing ever you will find in a small town in Nebraskaread more
