The food was great. It all came out hot and fresh just like we ordered it. Prices were pretty good But our server looked visibly annoyed when we walked in the door and sat down and she was very rude and didn't care to try to earn a tip or anything else
When we walked in and sat down she walked over in a huff and was like what do you want to drink? We all ordered water except for my girlfriend's son. He ordered Sprite. She came back and my girlfriend asked if they had a drink menu and she's like not really. She's like I'll bring what we have and came back a few minutes with a flip card with a couple different drinks on it
We ordered our food and she asked my girlfriend if she wanted a drink and she said yes and ordered the drink The waitress then tried to turn around and walk away without asking me if I wanted anything at all and my girlfriend was like hey wait and I ordered an Old fashioned which came out ok. It was actually just more of straight liquor And not really any other flavors like it's supposed to have but whatever
She came back with our food and you could see she wanted us in and out. You could tell that she was in a hurry to get us out I went to use the restroom and if she was in such a hurry she should have been doing something other than sitting at the bar, talking with her friends and having a good time
So I'm pretty sure that's the reason she wanted us out so fast and she was visibly annoyed when we walked in
We got our food left her a small tip because of the attitude that she had and the fact that she didn't even want to ask me if I wanted to have a drink or anything
If you're handicapped and use a wheelchair or a walker, be prepared for a very small bathroom. It was clean...

Like some of the other reviews on here, I am also not quite sure how this bar has the high rating that it does.
The young lady who seated us was very friendly and attentive. The first thing that I ordered was a beer. They have a decent selection of beers on tap, and it was a nice surprise to find a few that I had not tried. It arrived quickly and was very cold. Spoiler Alert This beer turned out to be the highlight of our meal.
My fiancee and I decided to try a couple of different items from the menu, and ended up ordering The Duke Burger and the nachos. The Duke Burger was decent, but definitely nothing to write home about. The onion rings that came with it were clearly straight from the freezer section of a budget conscious shopping center. If that wasn't already bad enough, they were also overdone and flavorless.
The "staff favorite" nachos as they were listed made the burger seem like an award winning meal from a fine dining restaurant. The portion was large and enough to feed two, but this was the only thing going for them. Every component to the dish tasted cheap. Whatever flavor was incorporated in this delicatessen was clearly lost during it's long trek from the kitchen to our table. As my fiancee correctly stated, "These are the kind of nachos you would eat while drunk, and not touch at any other time." I couldn't agree...

Too loud these days. I used to be able to have a conversation with the people I was drinking with, now I'd have to yell. They put tables in front of the dart boards... Some new payment device where they scan your card right at your table then you sign with your finger. So many things wrong with this. I don't want to touch the screen the wait staff has been using to take orders all day, and every customer in there has been touching. It doesn't show an itemized list of your order, and the one that could be shown was not customer friendly. It tries to railroad you into tip options. I am not going to pay 20% tip on a $7 draft beer. Beyond that it took forever for them to walk around and stand there while running people's cards. I'd much prefer they collect the cards and go away, even if it takes longer, so that our party could continue talking uninterrupted. On top of all that their prices are high, portions small, and food quality low. They did get some large windows since the last time I was there so you can see the park across the street. You will have to walk through a cloud of smoke to get inside since there is no smoking area or really much of a sidewalk, so people just stand right...
