This is one of my favorite places to eat! The food and service are consistently delightful. My absolute favorite dish is the blackened tuna salad with that delicious ginger vinegarette! Bang bang shrimp appetizer is a must. I have been pleasantly surprised that each time we visit the staff are just amazing. Each server we've had has been refreshingly friendly and attentive. Everyone pitches in. Bartender or another server will run a drink over if our server is busy. Kitchen staff or another server will deliver food and not rush off without asking if you need anything else. The entire vibe here is just top notch and has never once disappointed.

Great little restaurant located close to several hotels and across the street from the Hard Rock Casino. When we arrived they had live music playing on the outside patio. Once inside it was a little quieter where we could talk and watch the baseball games on multiple screens around the room. I ordered the Pig Out sandwich and my wife had the Chicken Quesadillas. Both were really good meals. Our waitress was extremely nice and friendly. Could not have had a better time.

Cool spot to drink and get a bite to eat.. the food was really good. Not sure about the chicken fried steak.... Could not chew it at all. It was like rubber. But other than that everything was pretty good. Came back and got the chicken strips. They were super good. But u got to get lettuce that salad mix is nasty. Overall a good spot!!

This Lodge Eatery & Pub was one of our late lunch stops as we drove cross country. Huge bar, everything was super clean, the food was fantastic. Lots of different menu options, so even the pickiest of eaters would be able to find something to nosh on here. Wait staff was super friendly. Our food arrived pretty quickly. Portion sizes were great. If you leave hungry, it's your own fault. I would definitely eat here again when we are in the area.
