We stopped here tonight after passing up on Outlaw Smokehouse in Napoleon. Both places of which we haven't eaten at before. They have a pretty good menu here and at first I was going to order the 12 oz Ribeye but they were out of it so I went with the Philly Cheese Steak. We also ordered the Monterey Chicken. Additionally we ordered the Trio Platter and Loaded Potatoes as Appetizers. There were appx. 5 tables seated when we arrived a little after 6pm and by 7 there was only 1 other table left. Our appetizers arrived fairly quickly but our entrees took quite a while, especially with only a couple tables seated. Our server did apologize to us for the wait and stated they had large "to go" orders to fulfill. They should probably take care of their in-house customers first instead of having to go orders take precedent but that's my opinion. A two top table next to us came in a while afterwards and still received their food before us but it was a pizza. Our Trio Platter was delicious, it consisted of Pretzel Bites, Mozzarella Cheese Curds and Onion Rings (definitely a must to try). I'm not a fan of onions or onion rings at all but they were pretty good. The loaded potato has pulled pork in it which is different but it was good. My Philly Steak sandwich was pretty good but the sub bread/hoagie bun could have been toasted more, it did detract from the sandwich. The portion size of the Monterey Chicken we ordered was pretty small but it tasted great, the tangy BBQ marinade had good flavoring.The decor was neat, quaint and with plenty of conversation pieces on the wall. Overall not a bad local place, service could have been better but there are other entree choices that we were wanting to try so we'll...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Across the Bosrd Great food, excellent drinks with good value, a “something for everyone “ atmosphere.

The owner Doug and his staff were very much engaged with every customer, even anticipating their needs ahead of the request on a busy and crowded Saturday night.

Cleanliness was top-notch both inside and on the outdoor patio.

The music was well chosen to fully satisfy the entire diverse crowd who were listening, and dancing. And the older members of the customer pool noted the Goldilocks Volume: “Not too loud but just loud enough”, I overheard one gentleman state.

As a side observation: Doug is highly engaged with the entire Napoleon business community and even demonstrated a strong knowledge of the town’s original Trail Blazers, its development history and the evolution of the thriving downtown.

Overall Experience: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Well done, Doug and...
