    Me taking my first bite of my Original Kansas City burger.
    Diane W.

    Wow! We all loved our food. These burgers are huge...and so good. The onion strings were so good, we ordered a second basket....but then we were so full from burgers that we couldn't eat all of them. ‍ Make sure you try this place! Also, the staff was super friendly. Note: I eventually had to remove my bun to eat my burger and I still couldn't finish it.

    Had an Italian sub with french fries here. The Italian sub was huge as I got the large sandwich and super well flavored with all the different meats cheeses and garnishes. French fries are always the star for me here as they do a great job of keeping it crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside. My coworker got a burger and said it was awesome Great job!

    Came in for lunch. There were two servers. The shorter one was really excellent and didnt stop working the entire time. The other one was nice enough but worked the room at a much slower pace and was far more chatty- which when you only have two people and a lot of customers..... maybe less chatting. We came in and ordered fries. They came out really quick. Almost too quick to cook. They were also cold. We sent them back and then there was a long delay. We did get them. They were super fresh. Nice and hot. If you dont like seasoning... remember to order them without salt. They use a lot of seasoning/salt. We then ordered a reuben pizza thin and buffalo wings. The wings are huge. Meaty. Cooked and presented nicely. The pizza thins never disappoint. Probably the best thing there.

    First time coming here. The atmosphere was very relaxed and all the staff were very welcoming. I think my favorite part of my meal were the French fry's! I love crispy fry's and these didn't disappoint. The only thing I would say is that I requested a gluten free bun and my husband requested no onions. Both were forgotten. They ended up bringing a bun out to me to swap, but the burger was so big I really couldn't swap it out without making a huge mess. We plan to try it again because everything tasted great!

    By Thor burger on bottom  Cheeseburger 3/4 lb

    Stopped by after Outlet shopping. It's under 10 min drive and so worth it! We had some cold brews (lost coast) and belly fillers. I got the By Thor burger. Salami, fried egg bacon --- all the artery cloggers. Cohort got cheeseburger 3/4 lb. Mine looked bigger. I took half home. I can't eat like I used to. Fries are delicious with malt vinegar... you know fair fries Service friendly and quick Ambiance homey bar

    Hot wings
    Sara I.

    For a dive bar, 4/5 The wings are huge! 4 is plenty for one person. I personally liked the hot vs bbq. Onion rings were good and the burger was pretty solid. If back in the area, I'd go back again.

    1st time at this Thurmans in Galena and let me just say WE Loved it. We sat out back on a very large nice deck overlooking woods. Ashley was our server and she was so Pleasant , Attentive on spot on. The food taste Fantastic, we started off with a Large Pizza Crisp and in my opinion it truly is one of my Top 3 Pizza's in C-Bus we followed that up with the Famous Thurman Hamburger and is was as it always is The Best Burger in Columbus or surrounding areas. Always a very Happy Camper after leaving any THURMANS but this place with a Great location, plenty of parking and less wait time may be our New go to Thurmans location..We will miss Victor but we now have Ashley

    They will not make a rare burger. Don't let them talk you into medium if you want rare. Also the garlic wing sauce is different.

    Absolutely love your new location. Have a question, the music that is played with the DJ that sounds like Fritz the Night Owl...what is it, who is it and where can I find it?

    Stopped here for late lunch. Excellent food and great service. Lovely local restaurant. We both had…read moreFrench dip with Brussels sprouts. Outstanding.

    This was our first visit to this place. The gentleman who greeted us when we came through the door…read moreexplained the dining concept to us: one side was a self-serve and the other side with the bar was full-service. Since there were a number of couples waiting for the full service side we opted for the former. We ordered and paid at the counter. I ordered the grilled chicken breast with a sweet potato and steamed broccoli while my husband ordered the grilled salmon with sweet potato and opted for a caesar salad in lieu of a second side. The grilled chicken breast was moist and well seasoned but it essentially was naked. It could have used a nice sauce like a bearnaise or some kind of salsa (maybe chutney) to jazz it up. The sweet potato was embarrassingly small. The broccoli was crisp tender but again was bereft of any sauce or just melted butter to make it yummy. My husband's entree was tasty but essentially was pretty bare. His salad was decent though. This restaurant must understand that the eye eats as well as the stomach because when the entrees arrived at our table the plates were rather underwhelming. We also ordered coffees and the gentlemen at the front said he would make a pot of fresh coffee. (He never did). The coffee we were served was old. Apparently, coffee isn't a big draw at this place. The best part was the gluten-free brownie and ice cream at the end. All in all, the place is nice and clean. The food is decent but there is room for improvement. Would we return since we are locals, I don't think so.
