- The Chipotle chicken wrap is amazing. You actually get meat in the wrap, unlike other places where it's all lettuce or tortilla. The fried pickles are also a great appetizer at a good price.
DELICIOUS food and definitely a great American food, friendly, and un-intimidating atmosphere. Great prices on wine, beer, & mixed drinks. Owner always working at own restaurant which shows hard work!
The atmosphere is warm and comfortable, as are the staff. The food, while not out of this world, was very good, especially considering this is being written the third day of their soft opening
Amanda StickelsApril 27, 2015I had their NY strip entrée, which tasted better than most steak houses. Everything was perfectly seasoned and cooked just the way I asked.- Kevin ThompsonDecember 22, 2013My favorite downtown eatery! Atmosphere is comfortable and dark. Food is always good and prices are great. Love the Western Burger!
Bryan LeeSeptember 18, 2013Get the fries. They're more than enough for two to share. Make sure to have plenty of ketchup!
Dennis NelsonApril 11, 2013Agreed.. great atmosphere... Hot dog bun was hard but the burger was awesome.. great music on, and our server was excellent.. will definitely be back.
Patrick MackeyJune 10, 2016Nice American Bar n grill in the middle of downtown. Good for lunch, dinner, or just because!
Charles H HanserdOctober 7, 2017If your ordering any poultry please make sure it's fully cooked the turkey burger i ordered to go wasn't done.Mind you i eat turkey quite a bit.The manager says it should have a pink hue to it.Really!
Cathy FinleyJuly 28, 2013Great food, great service. One of the best places to eat in downtown Rockford. Fried pickles are a tangy delight!
You have to try the deviled eggs on Wednesdays... Nick does an amazing job coming up with a new taste sensation every week.- ChristinaMay 7, 2014Awesome menus! The pickles and turkey burgers are great along with the martinis!
- Kevin ThompsonDecember 22, 2013Also came here with a client and took many photos without issue. Of course I asked first which is always proper.
The chili is freaking awesome, as is the bacon vodka bloody mary.

Ames PlantMay 18, 2013Don't take photos here unless you have a "permit". The owner is a real jerk with attitude about taking photos of his place.

"Was weary that since they just opened, things would be lacking but service was friendly and fast and the food was great. Lunch with pop was reasonably priced. I hope to go there for drinks sometime."
