Stage Stop Saloon & Grill — Restaurant in Mandan

I go here somehwat regularly with a couple of my friends. Last couple times I've been here however has been a nightmare. The owner and most of his staff do their best to accommodate however one bartender (I believe her name is Seneca) is entitled and unbelievable. My first experience with this bartender she refused to order me drinks because of some confusion with my wife (she's a server there) and something about not getting tipped. I didn't find out what was going on until later. I had given my wife my card so she could just pay for our food and drinks when she was off (I was there to pick her up when she got off) and I guess she just rung it up herself. She was fairly new still. Later on another occasion I was waiting for one of my friends to get off work and join me while wife was working. There was an event going on. Seneca continued to ignore me through our the night. Only ordering me a drink when she absolutely couldn't pretend not to notice me waiting. I had no clue what was going on. It wasn't until a little later that I found out she told my wife I was apparently trying to "intimidate" her. I had no clue at this time who she was. She was just a bartender to me. I still don't know what her issue with me is. Instead of dealing with drama I chose to go to the outside bar and remove myself from the situation. Instead of leaving it at that she came outside and began being very sarcastic to me and started arguing with me. After I bit I refused to even speak to her anymore. I ended up going home after having my entire night ruined. The next couple times I came in to buy off sale (I've avoided going back to drink because of her) everything seemed calmed. Until this morning. I baught some drinks for me and a friend with came to around $80 something. I left a $10 tip (for off sale btw) as a ty for taking the time to let me grab something on a Sunday. Come to find my card for over charged causing my balance to drawn into the negative. She lied when entering the tip amount and added an extra $16 to the $10 I had already approved. I debated posting this but it makes me wonder if she's this entitled that she will willing steal extra tip money from a customer over her own perceived drama that only exists in her head, then who else has she done this to. How many customers has she stolen from because she felt she was owed more. Stage stop is great, but if Seneca is your bartender, watch your bank cards. I won't be returning as a customer as long as she is still employed there. Edit : I would also like to add that the owners did fix this right away which I greatly appreciate. In no way is this review a reflection on the establishment, but is a warning on a specific person's professional character and morals. If you can't handle the stress of the environment of bartending, don't be a bartender. And don't...

I went with a small group. That was the worst experience I've had in a long time with any restaurant. Took 15 minutes to get our drinks ordered and then other 15 to 20 minutes to get our food ordered. Then had to wait 45 minutes to a hour for our food. When our food did finally come it was cold, food didn't taste good , some was too spicy or burnt. We asked for refills or something small like ranch or ketchup, we felt like we asked the world. The waitress felt like she was trying to avoid us the whole night or didn't care. One of us had a burger and fries, besides all of out food being cold, his burger was burnt/ over cooked. He asked the waitress for condiments so he can could try to eat that gross burger. She grabbed the Manger but it felt like he didn't want to deal with either, he didn't even come to the table. He stood away from the table and felt like he yell over to our table. He did remake the burger and we thanked him for doing that but when he brought the fresh food. He than stated I made it myself if you don't like it your weird. We brought up to the manager all our cold and didn't taste right or the fact we had to wait so long and he said yea I know and didn't care. We had to go to bar sometimes to get service. We all felt like we should have gotten a little discount or something for the cold food but didn't feel like fighting with the staff . Plus we had noted that other tables that came in after us with more people got served faster than us and got there food before us. I would never go back here again for...

I wouldn't recommend trying to order food to-go if you're on any sort of time-crunch or lunch break.

The waitress spent ~5 minutes watching some video on a customer's phone. She then had a pretty off-putting and loud conversation with that person: "That bar ..... it's the one owned by those Indians right?" (In a very disgusted tone)

I understand that waiters and waitresses need to make conversation with their patrons but ignoring new customers to watch a video on someone's phone is a bit weird and the comments reflect REALLY poorly on the business. It's not something a customer should be having to hear, especially not on their first time there.

Afterwards she acknowledged us and handed us menus. We already had a good idea of what we wanted since we were there on lunch break and she said "I'll be right back" and disappeared for 10 minutes. We had to leave to get back to work and as we were leaving, she casually walks back into the bar area with two other people (I assume employees? They immediately started asking the other patrons how their drinks were) talking about how...
