Dustin Turner
Second time at this restaurant. Service is amazing and personable with a small town feel. Ron and Sonia took care of me and were excellent! Food is great, especially the baby back ribs. Definitely deserves this five-star review. Thank you clever monkey everyone around here always has positive things to say about your business and it is reasonably priced for the high quality.

We have been in several times, with varying results. First off, I always have the bourbon ribs. Absolutely delicious, and I am a Texas BBQ guy, so that is high praise. We have at times been a little disappointed with the service. We’ve talked to management (Ron) about it and they are really on it. 100% maximum effort to make dining there the best experience possible. I absolutely recommend this place.

Appear to be under new management. Ordered a beer and wine, Sophie served us promptly. Too much dirty laundry at bar. The new manager was videoing maybe a training video? Sophie left, our food order was lost, took 20 minutes to get our garlic bread order of 2 slices, not charged for, thank God. We heard the good, but maybe need some time to get situated properly

Wendy and I enjoyed a night with friends playing trivia at the Clever Monkey on Tuesday night. Lots of great teams playing and having fun with friends. We ordered food to try and everything came out amazing from the wings to the BIG sandwich and my wife’s eggplant dish. If you are in the area then do stop by and give the Clever Monkey a try. I have to mention the service was great also. Thank you to everyone for making it a really fun night.

Unfortunately, I must downgrade my review. Yes, the burgers are huge, they are juicy, they are super-flavorful. But on my most recent visit I encountered long delays. My server said a kitchen staffer was fired minutes before. She also told me my favorite server, the sweetest and most efficient young lady, left because she was being hassled over days off. I contacted Clever Monkey via their website contact form and relayed my disappointment over my wait time. No one ever responded. I have not been back.

Dalana was our server and she was fantastic!! A table of 14 came in right after us and she made sure we were taken care of and not forgotten. Great food.

Fried shrimp (7 large) and fries was excellent. Can’t go wrong with any burger. Big juicy patty with perfect flame grilled flavor. Staff was intense but it was a Friday night and drink orders were wrong, someone’s order wasn’t input and our server didn’t know what the special was. Really enjoyed the meal, will go back on a less busy day.

Stumbled upon this sports bar. Staff is very friendly, they have a good selection of craft beers. Plenty of tvs around to watch the game. The food was alright. The french fries were very salty, and the philly steak did not have a lot of flavor. The tomato soup was the best of it all and has a kick to it so be careful. Also would highly recommend getting the stuffed mushrooms as an appetizer.
