The bartender said between those times it is usually standing room only. So, lunch is a good time to go. I wanted to get the sampler plate, but I want to be consistent and I am doing cod plates for this lent tour. The hubs had the slick willies burger and said it was fantastic, had bark on it like he likes. The fish was okay, you could taste the grease in the batter. In saying this, I am a bit picky with a fish fry, I don't want it to taste greasy or fishy. When I put the fork into the fish, the batter broke away from the fish, bummer but not a deal breaker. The prices are great!

It was crisper then I would've liked which means I think they might've kept it in a little bit longer than I like, but it was still tasty and it was not hard once I took the breading off, but it was great tasting chicken and it came with enough stuff so I think I will be actually returning eventually down the road as of right now I think you're better than KFC and better than Popeyes since I worked there hehe now I just have to try your burgers

The wings are grilled to perfection, seasoned well and they have a list of flavors to choose from. Flavors like PBnJ , Honey Mustard, Dragon's Breathe, etc. The service is very friendly. Our bartender was super nice and funny. The other waitress made sure we were good and polite. The drinks were good too. The bartender made me a crow blackberry mule and then I asked if he could mix a white claws wild cherry, with peach schnapps and grenadine. It literally tastes like a peace of candy. The vibe of the bar is nice. Good music and they had the sports games on so I will definitely comeback. Especially since the specials everyday.

Ordered sweet Asian chili and medium bone in wings. Preferred the sweet Asian chili sauce. Medium differed from Frank's hot sauce flavor and had a tangier flavor. Unfortunately the skin in the wings were soft and took away from the overall flavor. The meat was tender though, but not seasoned. All the flavor in the sauce. Fries were good, nice spiced and a little crisp. I did order delivery so maybe everything is crisper dining in. Overall a decent contender for the area as other places may have more seasoned wing meat but the meat is overcooked. The wings here were cooked to just right doneness.

These were next level and our little one's eyes got so big and bright when we walked in. Then things went downhill - we got there right at 11am when they opened and we were seated at a table in the back by a hallway that had a draft. I asked if we could sit in the big room with more for my daughter to look at while we dined in. The waitress in that space rudely said "no" stating the room was still being cleaned and tables set up - major bummer. Our actual waitress was very sweet and attentive. We ordered a Mediterranean rice bowl (without meat so it was vegetarian-friendly), a Philly with onion strings and a slice of their seasonal peppermint cheesecake. The food was mediocre. The bowl was lacking and a small portion. If someone doesn't add a protein it would be nice if you at least added some more rice or cut the price down. Just my two cents. And there was a piece of metal in the onion rings which the waitress thought was from the scrubber they used to clean the equipment in back. They comped the Philly meal with the onion rings which I felt was the least they could do. I get it - things happen - and we didn't make a big deal about it but that's a deal breaker for us. Especially if our toddler is eating out with us because then I'm on edge waiting for the metal to make a repeat appearance and that's not enjoyable for anyone.

They came out piping hot. The buffalo garlic was listed under hot sauces but it is not hot IMO. We had carrots and celery with blue cheese on the side. We had also ordered onion rings - they came out hot but we would skip them next time - kind of bland. The place was packed, so it was a little tough to get service but the staff was hustling. Our server was was very friendly and helpful when we were able to get her to our table. TomKen's gives typical Wisco neighborhood bar vibes, with lots of local memorabilia on the walls and several TVs with sports on. We may have to go back and try the fried chicken - tables all around us were ordering big baskets of fried chicken and all the sides.

TomKen's has classic sports bar vibes. They were busy when I visited on a Saturday afternoon. It took a little while to get my order in. But the people were nice and there was a Brewers game on TV and I didn't mind hanging out for awhile. I got the famous friendly chicken dinner. This was a 4-piece half chicken dinner with coleslaw, fries and Italian bread. It was a lot of food especially for the price. The chicken was juicy and the batter was nicely salty. The fries were the crinkle variety--nothing special on their own but a nice potato-ey complement to the chicken. The cole slaw was solid--a little sweet and not too mayonnaise heavy. One should not eat fried chicken every day of course, but I would definitely come back for a treat.

It was only 15 minutes so maybe call ahead. The chicken was very moist yes I know people hate that word but it was true. The skin was crispy and had a great taste.

I read…read moregood things about the brisket here and found it inside Redbar and was able to grab a seat at the bar. I ordered a beer and decided on Brisket and added a Sausage for 6 bucks. I started cutting into the brisket and was immediately turned off. This was like cutting into a piece of beef jerky. It was try and tough and I shouldn't have even put it in my mouth, but I reluctantly did! Oh wait, this isn't that forum in that adult magazine.... But Yuck Yuck Yuck to that dry meat. Luckily, there was a LOT of brisket so I fished around and cut a piece from the other end and wow... BUTTER! This was some of the juiciest brisket I've had. The fat rendered nicely and it was still meaty. SOOOO good. Yes, this good part was connected to the bad part. The $6 add on for the sausage was pretty good as well, as was the side of Mac n Cheese. With the add on, it's probably a shareable plate for most people, including me these days. Parking is limited as it's kind of in a neighborhood, and the Redbar itself has a locals, dive-bar vibe, which isn't a bad thing. Just something you should know! Cheap beers though!

With only a handful of tables to sit at, we waited a few minutes until a party left. Menus were dropped off promptly with instructions to order drinks & food at the bar.

The sausage was spicy & had a wonderful snap. The Mac & cheese flavor was good but had a bit of a gritty consistency. The house pickles were a great palate cleanser. Great spot to enjoy a drink & eat! Will be back to try other offerings.
