A quick stop in Amherst for lunch at The Stockman's (or Stockmen's--as it was spelled on the wall)…read morewas a pleasant surprise both in the food and service categories. My husband declared his thick cheese dripping burger as the best burger he has had in recent memory and he is a burger loving farm boy. My patty melt was so thick I could not get it in my mouth without several cuttings. Most burgers come with seasoned fries, a few basic selections came with chips instead so my husband snitched a few of my fries to compliment his burger. Our table server was attentive, friendly, and apologetic when my first choice entre was not available because of missing ingredients (goat cheese and fig sauce). Restrooms were clean, tables were promptly cleared, and we parked at the front door. A stop on the 2022 Nebraska Passport even gifted us a drink sleeve! I can see why the passport crew selected Sportsman's as a stop this year!

Something has happened to this cafe. I think they lost their identity and also lost the great meals…read moreand salad bar. We had been regulars. tonight their monthly special was Rocky Mountain Oysters. The guys like em the women won't try them, anyway we make the trip. I ask the waitress about the special: she says the RMO dinner is $30.00 and there is an all you can eat for x$, i didnt hear that price cuz i was shocked at the 30.00 price and she tells it comes with fried cabbage ( like this is the way you RMO's). We all declined since a flat iron steak was 21.00. We all ordered cheeseburger. Menu said cheeseburger $9.00, Fries and apprently every topping had a cost, cause the two burger with fries was $32.00, we had water and a diet pepsi. Burgers meat had a weird (maybe getting old ) taste, so we all ate some of the burgers, left the rest. The ambiance was ok until some customer came in and they cranked up the volume on the tv so he could watch volleyball from the bar. We were totally disappointed and it is off the to do list.

Our visit to Cunninghams On The Lake was appalling. The owner/manager was using profanity (mainly…read morethe "F" word) while talking with other men, loud enough that everyone nearby -- including kids -- could hear it. When my husband respectfully asked him to tone it down, the owner actually walked around the bar (where we were seated) to confront him and insulted him, calling him self‑righteous and that he wasn't apologizing for his language. As customer's were leaving they stopped to tell my husband that he was right in asking this man to be aware of where and what words he was using while women and children were dining. What owner/manager thinks this is beneficial for his business?? If he treats the customers as such how on earth does he treat the employees?? I am so sorry for the young ladies that have to work for this man. I've never seen a business owner behave with such arrogance and disrespect toward paying customers. This is not a family‑friendly environment, and we won't be back. Whatever happened to the statement that "the customer is always right even if they aren't"? ---

We loved our bottle of Riesling... White Rabbit. Will definitely be having that again. And to end the night, we took home the most scrumptious crème brûlée! I can't wait until our next visit.

Unfortunately, our experience was very disappointing. We first walked into the bar area and called out several times, but no one responded. We then went to the restaurant entrance twice, again with no staff in sight. After calling out once more, an employee finally responded, that she was preparing the salad bar for dinner. When the employee noticed our service dog, she immediately said, "No, no, no, no dogs." My husband asked if service dogs were allowed, and she replied, "No dogs. I'm not the owner." We then left without being served. There were no other customers in the restaurant at the time. As travelers relying on service animal access, we found this experience both frustrating and disappointing.

Even though it sits right off I-80 in Grand Island, NE, the race-car theme inside gives it a fun, lively vibe, and the place itself was spotless, well-maintained, and very organized. We were promptly greeted by Ms. Heather, the hostess, who was polite, cheerful, and welcomed us with a sweet smile before leading us to a booth in Ms. Hailey's section. Ms. Hailey was bubbly, friendly, and incredibly efficient--no movement wasted. She took our drink and food orders and even repeated everything back to make sure it was perfect. My sister ordered the All-American Cheeseburger with bacon on a buttered, grilled brioche bun with lettuce, red onion, tomato, and dill pickles, plus a side of seasoned fries ($14.50). The fries were crispy, well-seasoned, and very tasty. I went with the Farmhouse Burger topped with melted American cheese and a fried egg ($18.00). The flavors were spot on and the egg was cooked perfectly, though the beef patty was just a bit dry. We also shared the Wings Snack ($8.50) and an order of Onion Rings ($5.50). The wings were cooked perfectly and full of flavor, though they were a little heavy on the BBQ sauce. The onion rings, however, were outstanding--super crispy, well-seasoned, and honestly the best onion rings I've ever had. Overall, this restaurant was a great experience. The staff was friendly, helpful, and very professional. If I ever find myself back in Nebraska, I will definitely be stopping here again.
