Great food, great people! I haven't been to this restaurant before, but me and my friend went for trivia night. It was a fun time, and a lot of regulars were there. They all had suggestions for 5 or 6 of their favorite items! I can say i loved the fried pickles and the patty melt with Cajun fries I ordered. If you're looking for a good old southern dive, this one is a gem! The restaurant/bar was very nice inside as well. I ate half my food before I realized I forgot to take pictures.

Chef Ivar is a culinary genius and should have his own restaurant. Bartenders walked us through the menu and was top notch with personality and hospitality. Best thing in bowling green Ky. 💯 Best Fries in the USA.

Upon arriving to this location it seemed very “Hole In The Wall” like. After all, it’s in between a gas station and liquor store. But when we went inside our expectations were blown out of the water. The inside was extremely clean, wasn’t very busy, and we were greeted by a very friendly waitress. The food was fantastic and the beer on tap was the cherry on the top. The servers were extremely nice and you could tell that the relationship between them and the kitchen staff was very tight. They were joking and laughing together and overall it was just a happy environment. We were also told that they do $1 wings on Sunday’s for the games! So you will absolutely see us back.

A rare find! We came in for gas, and found so much more! The food is fantastic! A great double bacon cheeseburger, and a Philly cheese steak! The atmosphere was awesome! Seriously going to return on a Tuesday and play the game!

I had heard that this place had great wings but just never made it over. We had family in from out of town and wanted to eat somewhere that was away from all the shopping traffic. We headed over and were so pleasantly surprised. The wings were very good. The pizza was good too. Annice soft crust with well laid toppings. Service was pleasant and courteous. Megan did a great job. Our food didn't come out fast but we had a nice visit with family while we waited, and the wait was worth it.
