Came in to get a burger to satisfy my craving, and was not disappointed!!!! Delicious fried appetizers and greasy burgers from Yoder meats!!!!! Great service on top!!! The lovely ladies heard me say "I may need a Benadryl" and one of them served me the best Benadryl I've ever had loved it. 10/10 will be back.

Cold beer (red, if you prefer), good burgers, nice patio, and lots of other fried stuff. Seriously..can you go wrong? Try the jalapeno relish and some waffle fries. I'd honestly say the burger is in the top five in the metro area.

It is a complete dive bar with amazing service and excellent food. The only thing I would change was that they took cards.

Small and dark place! Very outdated, and the food is terrible. I ordered a burger to try it, it was dry and very plain and no flavor

Great food and pricing. Don't go there for the ambiance...none. But food and socializing worth the trip. Try it!

Just try it. Best burger around. Add on the curly fries. Get the corn nugs as an appetizer and wash it down with a cold lite brewski.

I have read many of the reviews of Point Nine and, frankly, agree with them. I am giving Point…read moreNine 4/5 stars in the hopes that they will take my comments constructively and become better. First of all, I truly love a restaurant like this in Andover; we've needed a nice establishment that is not a chain restaurant and Point Nine offers this. The ambiance - both inside and outside - is stellar and welcoming. Clean, bright, and colorful, it's a welcome treat in Andover. The beer selection is very nice and their drink menu has something to offer for every patron. The food is great, but Point Nine desperately needs to widen their menu as it's a bit thin on options. I get it: you're new and still experimenting, but you're gonna lose patrons if you do not expand. Furthermore, the service was slow and our waitress openly complained that the "kitchen is too small to accommodate the dining space" and that Point Nine "did not have the food storage space needed to ensure that items did not run out of stock,"...which they did. If this is true - and all the evidence indicates it is - this is a major design flaw in the construction of the actual restaurant. Finally, the menu is RIDICULOUSLY overpriced. I brought my son for lunch here and did not have any alcoholic drinks, but the bill was still nearly $100. Unacceptable if you plan to sustain yourself in a small-market town with other, cheaper options just several miles down the road. I want Point Nine to succeed in Andover. However, the owners must make serious changes to their current business model.

First time visiting. Concept and atmosphere was great on a beautiful evening!…read more The covered patio was perfect for what we were wanting to be able to go out with family and small kids. Staff were helpful in making reservations and table accommodations. Initial thoughts: The food however missed the mark. Ordered a variety of items on the dinner menu and most lacked in savory taste. For the price point of items, I did not feel that the value of food matched. Most of our party was not satisfied with items ordered. Service was friendly, however slow on checking in on our table for water refills. I don't know that unless menu items were to change that I would want to return for dinner, but would love to try breakfast. We love local and want to see locally owned thrive - and am hoping to try again in the future and have a different experience.

The sauce is what is providing the flavor. The fries were crunchy and good. The food came out at a decent temperature. My friend ordered the Ginger Chicken Bites, Deviled Eggs and Truffle Fries. She felt the chicken bites didn't have any flavor and were okay. I felt the chicken bites could've had more flavor as well. It was fresh and hot though. She enjoyed the fries and Deviled Eggs. The Sunshine Old Fashioned and Paradise Peach drinks were 9.5/10! I ordered a medium well filet mignon, loaded baked potato and sautéed green beans to go. As seen in the photo, there were a SCOOP of green beans. The steak was overcooked and not even close to medium well which is what I ordered. My mother thought it all tasted good, it just wasn't cooked how I asked for it to be. I'd rate the overall experience a 7/10.

The first time we dined here, we were seated on the patio and it had so much potential, but the stench from the nearby backyards (dog business) was overwhelming. The second visit was just fine, but this last visit was mostly bad all around. First, we were seated right away, but it took quite a while for a server to make their way to our table. It was really busy, so that is understandable, and the servers were all very friendly. It is not a quiet place by any means and our table was directly between the side door to the patio (smelly and hot every time the door was opened) and the kitchen which was abuzz with activity and really noisy. There was live music on the patio but that was out of earshot. We were served water and those glasses were kept full (thankfully because my son in law was dehydrated from attending the Wichita Open all day). Despite us taking a while to look over the drink menu, our drink order was never taken. We ordered a starter and got dill pickle bombs. They were fine. Standard bar food that we finished fairly quickly. We waited for 15 minutes for someone to return to take our entree order and quickly requested a couple things from the "specials" menu and a couple from the standard menu. We didn't mention drinks because we were eager to get the food order in, and after she left the table we said, "oh shoot. We didn't order drinks. Oh well she will be back." We didn't ever see our primary waitress again. People came by to fill water and to drop off our entrees. Then someone came to ask if we needed anything else and by then, we decided to stick with water. The first entree was salmon and chips. Looking back, the description might not have been investigated fully, because my husband was surprised that the salmon arrived breaded as you would expect cod or haddock to be in a fish n chips combo. It was not very appealing, but the fries were good. The server had asked if he preferred ranch or ketchup with fries and he replied ketchup but proceeded to receive neither. The second entree was a 6oz steak from the specials menu served with potatoes and a choice of vegetables. I requested green beans and both the sides were decent but did not knock my socks off. I ordered my steak medium rare and that is what I received. The flavor was good, but I can say without hesitation, it was the worst cut of meat I have ever been served. The steak came sliced and layered on top of the potatoes (probably to make it look more substantial since it was a smaller portion.) I had to ask for a steak knife because the table knife could not cut through any part of those slices. I got the steak knife, powered through some tendons and tried like mad to consume a small bit. I could not chew this steak. Until that day, I don't think I have ever spit out food in a restaurant, but I did not have a choice. It was either spit it out or swallow it whole. My son in law ordered a Cobb salad and said it was great! Score! Nothing terrible or out of the ordinary to report. Lastly, my daughter's meal might have been the most strange. Her entree was from the special menu and was described as a Shrimp Scampi Fettucine with garlic in a white wine butter sauce. At first bite, she immediately said, "Wow. That's really lemony." She kept eating (because thankfully she likes lemons) and gave her husband a bite. He physically retracted and said, "dang. That's a lot of lemon." She then asked me to try a noodle and gave both my husband and myself a fettuccine noodle. It tasted like the noodles had been boiled in lemon juice. The odd thing is that lemon was not mentioned in the description and the dish, upon further inspection, actually had lemon rind mixed in. There was no white wine butter sauce to speak of... just onion, garlic, and lemon with shrimp. It wasn't terrible. But that's definitely not in line with the description, and really not what she was expecting. A member of the wait staff stopped by and asked if she could bring us a sweets menu. At no time did anyone inquire about the meal. We said no to the sweets and asked for the check. My final assessment was that Sheets Creek is a nice place for friends to meet up and have drinks. They have live music and a nice atmosphere if you aren't looking for a quiet place to relax. The prices were not outrageous and had they been more, I might have complained. There were too many things to mention to staff and I would have come off as petty. Life is too short. Sheets Creek seems to be trying too hard to be unique and for me is missing the mark.

You will NOT have the bartenders full attention that all of you have grown accustomed to thanks to the gen Y/X parents who thought time outs were harsh. They may have some paper on the bathroom floor. The food is not 5 star and you most likely will not bump into a celebrity. That being said..... Simply my favorite bar in the Wichita area. The tenders are awesome, the beer is cold, the music mixes up quite a bit, there are bikers, older folks, black folks, white folks, young folks......the food is tasty and usually pretty quick. It's the best neighborhood bar I've had since I moved here. One of the few places in the city I would miss if it was gone!

The bartender was already doing shots and didn't care about anybody else in the bar unless they bought her a drink. It took forever to get our food and not once did the bartender ask us if we were ok with the food or asked use if we needed another beer while our mugs sat empty. I don't know who owns this terrible place, but it must be a front for illegal activities. Know way a place like this could stay open so long without being a front for something else. I'm guessing it's owned by the Stevens family. We all know about them.
