I paid $4 for 4 mass produced onion rings. Burgers are okay. Completely understaffed so the service was almost nonexistent. The system of order food at the counter, order drinks at the table only works if there is actually wait staff to take your order and bring your check. Would absolutely not recommend.

We were there the day of the eclipse and they were crazy busy. The food was great, the service was excellent, and the staff was absolutely amazing.

Decent burger, fries were really good and beer selection was better than expected. Very unique having counter service food and table service drinks. Place was busy, obviously its popular with the locals.

Everyone raves about this place as being the best food in Metropolis. Me and my other half thought it sucked. She ordered a chicken kabob lunch. It came with NOTHING. No lettuce, tomato, onion, tsaziki sauce, rice, a pita... NOTHING. Thank God she ordered a side of fries. According to her it was tasteless and spice less, at way too high of a price. I ordered a burger and cheese fries. The burger came plain because they have their own toppings stations. The burger was tasteless, needed spice and should have been better made. The cheese fries were nothing more than a handful of shredded cheddar dropped in hit fries. The fries were soggy and once the cheese actually melted it made it worse with the grease. This was also overpriced. Don't waste your time. Metropolis needs to come into the current age with good quality restaurants and something to draw the tourists.

Came for lunch. BBQ chicken sandwich is chicken prepared on the grill then slathered with BBQ sauce... Bourbon chicken is done the same way, with a different sauce.Not sure why the place got so many rave reviews. Perhaps in the evening the bar helps food taste better.

It's been a bit since I've been here. I was glad to see that some menu changes have occurred, including bringing some old things back and adding a few new things. The food was great! I had an off day with my server. We never got a refill and waited more than 30-min after being finished eating for her to cash us out. I eventually had to go to the bar to do it.

Kinda weird you order your food and pay. Then go sit down then you can order drinks and wait for food.

Stopped here for supper before heading back home, thanks to Google maps ?. My wife had a burger with bacon and mushrooms and bourbon BBQ sauce she custom ordered, not specifically on the menu. I had the Philly and ended up adding a little bourbon BBQ to that! Also shared Buffalo chicken dip and fried mushrooms! Everything tasted great the only complaints were that the tortilla were nearly stale and the fries were plain. We will definitely be going back, make sure to try the local blueberry beer it's great!
