A+ setting for a nice evening and A++ if there’s live music…I had both on my Wednesday evening visit. The views of the Lake make it special. I had the Smokehouse turkey gourmet grilled cheese. This is truly not a grilled cheese, but it is a very tasty sandwich. It is better described as a grilled turkey sandwich with bacon, avocado and cheese. It was 10.95 with the upgrade to onion rings.

A great place to grab a quick sandwich and maybe a beer on campus. Super views of the Terrace. After your sandwich and beer, you can have an amazing Ice Cream at the Scoop. Fun times!

Haven’t been here in a few months, recently changed their chicken tender and fries. Chicken tenders used to be amazing, not they are okay at best. Will not be finishing them. The fries quality is still good but used to be a bit better. Will not be coming back for chicken tenders.

The food was good, but a bit pricey for the portions. It was tasty though and cooked well. The service was wonderful and you can’t beat the atmosphere!

Had visited this place after almost 8 years and it brings back amazing memories .. the place has improved quite a lot ever since the renovation happened and the menu is just BOMB! I had the cheese curds with spotted cow and nothing like that anywhere else ! Simply put.. “Best vibe ever”

Loved it, but too loud, so didn’t get what I ordered. Long line, so didn’t even try to go back. Ordered gourmet grilled cheese, got a lot of bread, with 2 unmelted thin slices of “cheese” that appeared to be Kraft singles. Took out the “cheese”, left most of bread. Pepsi came out yellow and wasn’t sweet. Refused refund. Yes,it’s a student hangout, and it’s still awesome, just maybe picked the wrong day to go.

It took 30 mins to get my order, and I got a cold stacked burger and tater tots. It was terrible—very inefficient service. Never coming back.
