Stopped here on the way from WI to Chicago food was amazing! Highly recommend the fried pickles (best I've ever had) and the build your own Burger and Haystack were delicious. Service was fast and very attentive. Would definitely come back!

They have top tier fried pickles, great flavor and fry batter. Tried the SotD, black bean with feta-was awesome. Also had the grilled cheese and tots, tots were great!! We took a salad to go that also looked amazing

Well, it wasnt at all busy when we first came in but we did have to wait 15 minutes just to have our drink orders taken an additional 5 till we finally started getting our appetizer we ordered. Mind you the appetizer came first before our drinks, and this was going to be a bad review but the saving grace itself was the food! The reuben sandwhich was THICK and it was HOT like HOTHOT on good thick marble rye and it paired well with the dreaming tree chardonnay! I got the mac and cheese topped with pork belly and mushroom and they sautéed the mushrooms to perfection and that pork belly was INCREDIBLE!

Your chefs are a godsend and assets to your team! - your serving staff needs some direction. When we arrived, the restaurant was empty except for two people at the bar and one table of about eight people. The host warmly greeted and seated us immediately. We looked at the menu and knew exactly what we wanted in about five minutes. Another five minutes pass and a server still hadn’t come to greet us or take our drink order. We continued to be patient and waited to be noticed. Another five minutes pass. At the 15minute mark, I get up, find the host and inform her that we still have not been greeted by a server. Momentarily, a server came and greeted us - we put in our drink and appetizer order. She didn’t write our order down when we gave it but then came back five minutes later to confirm
