    Great place downtown above restaurant and shops on main street for seeing local bands or going to…read moreor hosting an event or party. Love the little details in the wood moldings and floors and stained glass and that they've kept the "vintage" looks of this older building that contribute to an atmosphere of uniqueness. Most places are rushing to modernize and make everything look simple and cookie cutter, its beautiful to spend time in a place that embraces the history they're working with instead of stripping it down. Not a lot of bathrooms/stalls in it, but it was very clean and well kept up. The bar area is a bit cramped and narrow, but it's history as a discrete speakeasy in an now alcohol heavy town makes it seem charming. My friends and I have had a great time here for concerts and birthday/anniversary parties and excited to go back for more. *Steep flight of stairs to get up there though with no elevators so maybe not ADA compliant

We hey can order food from the Manila restaurant below and the bar has all the traditional drinks cold and ready. I would rent this place if I ever have a reason to. There are a lot of stairs to climb to get up there so not sure how people with disabilities would do, but o cue you are up there you step back in time to stained glass windows, hard wood floors and chiseled timeless wood work.

    If you are looking for a good lunch spot on the water this has it. Didn't pay much attention to…read morethe inside but the patio was perfect. Didn't hurt that the weather was perfect. Service was prompt and very adequate. No complaints. Food: Beet salad was incredible and refreshing. The seared tuna salad was also very tasty. Both were very simple but done right. The burger was average. One pet peeve of mine was when asked what toppings not told there was a charge for everything, including mayo. Added lettuce, tomato, pickles and onion. This made a $12 burger $18. Caught off guard. Don't like that. The location and view made up for any short falls which there were few. Prices were reasonable and in-line. This is a good spot for lunch on the water. They also have live music!

    I had this place tagged on my Google "must try" since last year. The food was good, but not…read morespecial. I think the restaurant itself was clean and well kept. Traffic tonight was light especially for a Wednesday and during the Airshow. The server was prompt and checked on us often. For the food, I ordered the pretzel, brussel sprouts, and the Bam Bam shrimp tacos. I really loved the brussel sprouts. The pretzel IS in fact deep fried, I wanted to try it and I must say I will not order it again. For the Tacos, I don't know, I feel like they were talked up but left me wondering why they were special. I would not order these again if we came back to this tavern.

    We went for $5 pho *drool*, on Wednesdays, and lemme tell ya, it was gooooooood. Along with the…read morefried pork egg rolls, *drool*. Typical condiments provided: side of basil, chopped jalapeños and bean sprouts; jars of peanut butter, fish and oyster sauce, garlic chili sauce. It wasn't too busy but the bartender did tell us the place gets packed with students after 7-8p for that cheap, delicious pho. There's a menu of a few SE Asian dishes ++ that we'd like to come back and try (e.g. laab, papaya salad). There's also plenty of options for burgers, wings and fried goods ;) Didn't really ask about the beer. The other half had spotted cow (comes in tap and bottled). The service was excellent. Friendly, attentive and conversational 5+ The description of this place is under 'dance clubs'. Which is accurate because there is a dance floor. Didn't stay long enough to dance the night away. There's also the bar, separate seating area, and pool tables. Overall, really good pho and fried egg rolls; excellent service; fun and causal vibe. Unrelated note: next door, Terry's, has gyros! Who knew. And supposedly it's pretty good.

    Decided to try this place as they are now associated with the "Juicy Shrimp Shack". Where do I…read morestart? First, the place isn't very welcoming, kind of like going into a barn. Service was OK, but not exceptional. The food - Shrimp Po Boy was pretty good. The shrimp boil was not. The boil is brought to your table in a plastic bag - no plate, no boat or bowl for the shells, no utensils. They do give you some cheap plastic gloves, which if used, make it quite difficult to peel the shrimp as they are slippery. The shrimp was cooked OK, but lacked flavor. I ordered the "House" sauce, "Hot". Not sure if they brought me the correct sauce as it was quite "garlicy" and had very little heat. The flavor of the sauce did not pair well with the shrimp and really didn't flavor the actual shrimp much. The shrimp was head on and not deveined, for anyone interested. There are no sides included with the boil. If you order the boil, a side of fries will cost you a minimum of $5.99. When they give you your bill, they have already added a tip and a charge for paying with a card. Maybe service would be better at some of these places if servers had to earn their tips. Overall - We tried it, but won't be going back.

    We attended an event here. I understood when they asked me to take my purse back to my car but when…read morethey would not let me bring in an empty water bottle it seemed a bit much. I went to another event at a different venue where I was not allowed to have my water either and later after that passed out due to dehydration and blood pressure issues. I do explain this that I'm a disabled veteran and sometimes need things that help. Buying a four dollar water makes me feel that I cannot drink it and I still can become dehydrated )not having water bring on anxiety after being deployed.) I was told I cannot bring it in and had to take it back to the cars as well. Then I walked through and the person in front of me gets to bring a backpack in because it's considered the diaper bag. I was told to put my water in a medical bag and they would mark it as such. I find it interesting in the military, i was allowed a m16 loaded with me at all times, including briefing daily out 3 star general, sectary of defense for the country, and the president, but i can't bring a water bottle to battle through the injuries i endured protecting the country.

    3 stars for the herd game. 0 stars for the food. Absolutely the worst food we have ever had out…read more Now I expect game food but the brats were more like hot dogs and the burger was so over cooked it was not edible. We settled for a pretzel after the let down. Again, rock hard. If you enjoy a game, stick to the game and drinks. Save your money!

    I can see the charm of the river domes, but we had to make a reservation to get one and there was…read moreno one else in any of the other ones when we were there. In fact, at 7 pm on a Thursday, there wasn't even a dozen people in the restaurant to begin with. Everything was decorated for Valentine's Day which was a cute addition. The domes are also heated which made things nice, but you can't really see the river which is the point of the domes. Additionally, our server didn't really check on us and it took a while to get the condiments missing when the food arrived. We ordered a variety of items with the ny strip being the best of what we tried. The au jus was rather bland, the fries were crispy but had no flavor, the fish was quickly soggy due to all the oil not being drained. We added on hush puppies to the fish and chips.... $5 for 5 hush puppies. Would not suggest doing that, not worth the up charge. There is an eclectic mix of things on the menu but nothing that would lead me to recommend someone to try this place. The beer selection was great however so if you are looking for a place to grab a drink, the tap room feels like a great option. The restaurant however is more for vibes than a quality meal.

    This spot was incredibly disappointing. Came recommended by some locals, was packed to the gills…read morewhen we arrived, seemed like a very popular and desirable place to eat. Service was great. Classic midwestern friendliness. The views were fantastic. All the boxes were checked but the food. When I saw the menu, I had a feeling, this place is going to do nothing great, because they have a touch of everything. We of course didn't eat everything, so can't say for sure, but the food we ordered was far from mind blowing. The prices and popularity would have you thinking you were about to have food that at least exceeds fast food quality, but that was not the case. I've had fast food chicken fingers (from places that focus on chicken) with much more flavor and texture. They do beer well. It is a brewery after all. But I would not return for the food.
