It's right in the downtown area, so it's perfect for dinner before a show or casino visit. They have a nice selection of sandwiches, pastas, and entrees. I got the California Burger with grilled chicken and truffle fries. All very tasty. We also shared some cheese curds which were amazing! We devoured those. They come with ranch of course and a Melba sauce which was unique. It gave a good sweet and salty mix with the curds. The service was also quick and friendly. Definitely check out if you are in the area

Both were good. The "world's greatest fries" were good, but not spectacular. The tacos were good, but did not have the promised gojujang sauce on them. Sweet, not spicy due to a sweet slaw. Chips were good. Salsa just ok. Convenient choice for a quick bite while visiting the casino.

I thought maybe it was me, but observed her rude to others. This is a restaurant's first chance to set the tone, and she is not doing them any justice. We got a table and ordered drinks. My mom got the loaded Bloody Mary, which she said was delicious. It also was LOADED. Get this for sure! My SIL got the broasted chicken and said it was tasty as well. If you like chicken, it would be worth trying. Sadly I got a Mushroom and Swiss burger and it was fine. I always get burgers well done from a food safety perspective. It was medium at best. We already waited 40 minutes for food so I didn't send it back. The server never came back to ask how our food was either. My niece got a grilled cheese on the kid's menu. It was 90% bread for a 4 year old. Parents don't get this option! It's not worth the money. I know they were busy so trying to be respectful of that. Unfortunately the service was slow, the staff lacking and the food average to below, so go for a drink but choose your food wisely.

Highly recommend without any reservations. Can't miss. The place is too cool to pass up.

The restaurant is perched on the short of the Mississippi, having hired an architect that was smart enough to make it so every table had a view of the outdoors. They also have an outdoor patio which would be pleasant in warmer weather. We ordered our favorites, bluegills for me, with fresh cut fries and creamy slaw, and bone-in catfish for her, with fries and steamed vegetables, which turned out to be seasoned green beans which were a delight. Both of our fish entrees were done to perfection, a light breading, fried perfectly. Fries were great. The food was delicious, the experience made better by an outgoing server, Jessica, who made sure the drinks were refilled without asking, and checked on our food consumption a couple of times. They have a very long menu, with great apps, and a section for ankle biters. I'd go again in a heartbeat.

I think it came to them processed and ready to heat and serve. Just not great quality. The inside is very unique with different Star Wars statues and displays. I will stop back in someday.
