Went to see a band which was posted by Skooters to start at 7. Band didn’t go on until 9:30. I ordered a Tito’s and lemonade - lemonade was bad. Then changed to captain and coke - coke was flat. I expected better. The salmon was good though.

I havent had a good meal yet. Ive tried 4 different meals. The chicken fried steak is terrible. Hamburgers are tolerable. Mac n cheese in baked potatoes are a horrible idea. Not going back.

Went today for brunch. After sitting at our table for at least 15 minutes and no one came by to at least greet us or get our drink order, I approached someone at the bar. She was very apologetic. The food was good but service was horrible. It took forever to get our drinks and food. Our brunch was over 3 hours long. Unacceptable!

I sincerely hope the owner reads this. Maybe Im just getting old but I really dont understand their system. I went to the bar got a beer and sat at a table. I decided I wanted an appetizer and tried to get the attention of 3 different waitresses and I was ignored. I then told a bartender that I couldnt get a menu and I was informed that I had to let the girl at the entrance know I wanted food. New one on me, I wont be back. I felt the staff was rude and not helpful at all. I believe in supporting local businesses but they lost me when a waitress wouldnt even make an effort

If you want to listen to 2000 music thats been mixed into dupset its nice, but not for me. Bathrooms had spilled drinks and cup everywhere. Bartender mess up my drink but still made us pay for a new one. Overall seems like a place for the kids.

The staff was very accommodating, the food was good the portions were a tad small for the price. They seal your food straight from the kitchen in a carrying bag if your taking it to go also.

Great stage, great dance floor. Could have some waitresses. Had to get own bar drinks. And didnt have a total selection of drinks unless you went to other bar. Great band!! Wish they had more scheduled as it is a great venue with plenty of space!

Very poor customer service. While it was later in the night on Saturday, we sat in a booth for 15 minutes and no one came to our table. Three times a waitress came to the table immediately by us, and no one ever came to ours. We also saw many waitresses looking at us but again no one came. We left. Always was very good, we would definitely have to think if we will ever go again.

Fois was ok. Once they get some time under their belt Im sure it will be better. Of the 4 if us, 3 plates had to be sent back to be corrected

Went Saturday night before the band just for dinner. There was a fair crowd and I had no problem with the service. The chili is exceptional and the wings are very good. Overall I really liked it. I plan on returning soon with some friends.

Went there after it reopened terrible service. 8 girls at the hostess counter and still waited to be seated in a near empty restaurant. The music was deafening. Waitress was slow on acknowledging that we were there. It seemed that joking around with the other waitstaff was more important. We ordered a couple drinks and looked over the menu and was very disappointed that it turned into a glorified country themed burger/taco joint. The waitress did however point out the they did have mac & cheese. We paid for our overpriced iced tea and left. The fat lazy owner said cone again soon to which I replied we would never attempt to eat there again.Can I give the place no stars?

We ordered it for delivery and were extremely disappointed. The margarita pizza was hamburger sliced tomatoes with cheese melted on it. The veggie wrap was jarred olives and mushrooms thrown into a tortilla with bread slices of cheese laid in it as well. No sauce and zero flavor, hands down the worst veggie wrap I have ever ordered...kind of hard to mess up a veggie wrap. The meatball sandwich was not good either it tasted like frozen meatballs heated up and the fries we cold.

Very nice place. Glad to see then open again. The staff was super nice and a quick as they could be as it was very busy. My waitress was really prompt and apologized when things took too long. The food was really good and the DJ was awesome! Didnt have a chance to go to the other bar but we dis go outside and that was really crowded but nice as well. Keep up the good work!

It sucked, it is worse now then before the fire.The pulled pork sliders were dry,and the ribs seemed to not be smoked, they were a large slab,the sauce on it was terrible. We were not offered refills on our soft drinks and the wait staff was very inattentiveWords of warningSTAY AWAY, there are better alternatives

Review №55

Was excited about reopen. No specials whatsoever on a Sunday? Not even during a bears game? So many places have specials, and the food isnt worth the cost at full price. Wont be back. So many places with better food for for half the price.

3 tables in the restaurant, no one at the bar. Couldnt get an orange for my blue moon because they didnt have any cut. Asked if she could cut one and bartender said she didnt have a knife. Server was inattentive at best. Maybe have the servers and bartender put away their cell phones

A scam ! Check your bill close ! The food was good. The service was great. But, the place secretly charges 2% for using your credit card. The 2% is added on as an additional line charge as other. The 2% charge notice is NOT listed on the menu or anywhere else in the place.

Review №62

First time back since they reopened. The menu has changed a little, but a lot of old favorites are still there. The remodel looks really nice, and they created more seating, which was needed.We ordered naked wings with Thai chili sauce, a side of fries, and nachos. The portions are enormous, much like before. Our server, Chloe, was very attentive and pleasant. Im really glad Skooters is reopened!

Extremely nice looking bar and atmosphere except the bartenders arent very friendly that Ive seen not to say everyone isnt and it takes a while to get their attention or a drink they get very busy alot of times. They do have great live bands and a cover but its decent priced for a band,unfortunately the drink prices are ridiculously high they definitely need drink specials and I would continue to go here very fun with the right group lol. Just giving an honest review...

Sad to say this was our 1st and only visit.... Server was really nice and friendly so great job there... ordered chili which was good, which gave is high hopes for the rest of the meal. Order the 2 meats...brisket and ribs NOT REALY BBQ...OVEN COOKED....brisket was tough and no flavor, ribs were oven cooked as well, fell off the bone but covered in sauce...just not good. Mac n cheese we believe was made with nacho cheese sauce and bread was just that toasted bread with butter, should have been garlic bread.Also ordered boneless chicken which were ok. Had a side of ranch dressing with it and really cant stand when place nickle and dime you for some ranch dressing. Actually got charged $0.50 for a little 1oz cup not even full....

Place wasn’t busy took about 10 mins to get a beer. I order cole slaw didn’t come out with my food for some reason. The waitress didn’t seem to happy (maybe having a bad night). As a waiter or waitress you should smile at least once, I don’t know maybe I’m being judgemental.I NEVER had a waitress take my check after I paid while I’m sitting at the table. I KNOW YOU TAKE IT AFTER I LEAVE.

Menu a little confusing. Took a bit to understand it. Not crazy about having multiple patties on a burger. No condiments on table. You have to ask server for them. If I want a burger Id go to Jamesons on Black.

Place really wasnt that great. When we where in. Asked waitress for drink specials or a drink menu. She informed us. That they really didnt have a menu. How are we supposed to know what they have then for liquor??? When we did order. Drinks took forever to arrive. Just not my kinda place.

Awesome bar. A country themed bar with live country music, billiards, and a dance floor. Definitely a country, but strangely all kinds of people fit in just fine. The waitresses are top of the line, and the bartenders are highly trained. The drinks are slightly overpriced, but thats to be expected at a venue like this. An all around great experience.
