Ordered the salad with add on salmon within the the last week and it was absolutely amazing. Ordered the same thing today and it was miserable in comparison. Wilted lettuce, a fraction amount of the ingredients (tomatoes, bacon, blue cheese missing), no plastic ware, no dressing included. The salmon was very overcooked that the outcome was a dry and rubbery piece of fish. I guess it all depends on whether a lazy cook makes your order.

$$ the smash burger was pretty good. A hefty price for a small buger, though. No fries with the burger either.

Dempsey's is our go-to spot in LFK. Their burgers are great and the staff is super friendly. Highly recommend Wednesday trivia night and weekend brunch.

I love Dempsey's!! I rarely get lunch out, but their location is so convenient from my office that on a snowy day, I have no choice but to get a grilled cheese and tomato soup from them instead of eating what I brought from home! Their truffle fries are AMAZING and my team's work week always ends best when it ends with happy hour with Hailey!

Friday evening summery - Soup was cold, standard beer was was out of stock and the replacement was warm, and the fries showed up late. Bartender had the personality of bar towel and it was super inconvenient for her to get my bill, even though we were the only ones at the bar.What happened Dempsey's?

Super disappointing. Came in on a Friday afternoon to celebrate my babys 1st birthday. He loved the lights and ornaments but our waiter was terrible. He basically ignored us and assumed all we wanted to order was the bacon cheese fries we ordered as an appatizer. I shouldn't feel rushed to speak and order bc my server can't be damned to stand at my table more than 20 seconds! I got wings to go but we only spent 30 dollars when we would normally spend at least 70 to 80 out to eat.Parking: Must pay city for parking.Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly.

Delicious burger, not overcooked. The fried chicken sandwich was a little overcooked, but stoll tasted good. The house fries were terrible, I think they had sat around for a while and recooked, hard, crunchy, not fresh. However, it was a very large serving for a side. I would rath a smalled portion of fresh cooked fries than a lot of not so great fries.

My roommates and I wanted to try the holiday cocktails Dempsey's was serving for their Sippin Santa, holiday pop-up. Every single drink was beyond delicious. The decorations were fabulous. Lots of photo ops.
