Update, we had quit going due to change in management, recently went back. The food was not great. The service was very good, but while they have made lots of nice updates in the interior, the food itself was edible, but not enjoyable.Great service, friendly staff. We like to come here because their menu is diverse and has something for everyone.Food is consistently good.We have done employee meetings and Christmas parties here as well.I love letting my employees have ability to bring children and they can have fun in arcade while we get together, and still be part of our dynamic at dinner. Because the arcade is a few rooms away there is never a noise issue.

Used to come here all the time. Now the hours are super random and inconsistent. No website or posts on updates online so you end going out of your way to the place only to find out they’re closed from a sign on the door when they read open online. Great way to lose local customers.

If I was to guess why Hillsboro was losing the bowling alley and "the pandemic" wasn't on the list, I'd blame this place. First off, what is that name? Were you going for Sports Book, but couldn't get a gaming license? Is this a salon for athletes? That brand alone is a nightmare. But no: It's just a bowling alley restaurant with a bunch of TVs in it. Here's what that needs to do: Pour cheap beer, serve SYSCO wings, fries and burgers and just exist. How do you mess that up? Easily: You take anything that was ever special about it (the tchotchkes, the Winterhawks nights, the middling food) and you try to get a little too cute with it. The place didn't need more wall paint or updated furniture or "The Panookie": It just needed to be a stable environment that people knew was there. Here's how badly marketed this place is: Its biggest sign is on a road where people drive by it at 60 miles per hour. The front of the restaurant--with the windows and outdoor seating that somehow went nearly unused during a pandemic as every other business added outdoor dining--was treated like the back. Then, in the middle of the biggest crisis this business has faced, you change the menu?! The questionable paint scheme and death of the red baskets was bad enough, but you actually ditch half of the easy-to-prepare items? My brother in law says he went by and saw a for-sale sign on the building this weekend. Based on the changes I witness the last few times through the door, this was all self inflicted. Don't blame the pandemic, don't blame the government: Blame yourselves. You ignored the easy changes (renaming, focusing on downtown rather than Baseline, etc.) and instead hollowed out the business. I feel bad for all of the bowlers and barbers and hockey fans, but the town might be better off without this particular incarnation of the business.

Ordered from Sportslook tonight, and was quite disappointed. Was told my food would arrive by 8:45, it finally showed up at 9:20. The food was cold, and had no au jus sauce.....kind of a key component of a French Dip Special. Tried to call to ask about it, and got no answer. Finally got to a voicemail box only to hear that I could not leave a message as their voicemail box was full. Terrible customer service.

First off very cold inside, 2nd no drinks to go with kids menu but soda and lemonade, 3rd no bacon for a burger, 4th burger very very sub par cold and dry ended up getting something else on way home(old owners should of kept their name and made new owners come up with new name) my son said that wasn't any good (how do you not have good mac and cheese for a 11 year old) long story short we definitely will not be back

We used to come here all the time before the new owners. Our favorite things used to be the grand slam burger which fed 2-3 people and the fries were to die for.Last night was our first time in under the owner and we ordered off the happy hour menu. The burgers were less than desirable, be I ate half. Although I missed the old fries greatly the new ones were pretty good. The Cesar salad was so drenched that I ate about half and that's all I could handle. My husband's wings were good!I will have to have time to think about whether I would return, it's definitely not the same place of our fond memories. Most customers were in the bar, as we were, and the bartender did a great job!

The service is quick and friendly. The food was fine. The Ceasar Salad wrap could have used a bit more dressing.

Cool place. Great spot to grab a drink and watch a game. Food is a bit pricey (paid $10 for 6 pretty small boneless wings). But overall a good experience and good cocktails.

The Saturday night staff this evening was top notch. ? Between having a phone call confirmation for our online order as well as having the perfect delivery and flawless execution of a variety of multiple different preferences spread across the menu, sports look exceeds all expectations for today’s modern “take-out”
Used to come here when it first opened years ago....then stopped since food was not that great....NOW, happy I came back.. new chef= awesome food!!! Excited to see all the improvments! Yay!!!

This is now our 6th or 7th visit. Its been hit or miss as to quality and service. We have had great wings, good chicken alfredo, but bad fish and chips and notchos that were disappointing. We have been there with two staff taking care of a dozen tables and had great service. But then last time there were four people taking care of tabled and had poor service. But my wife loves the alfredo so we will be back.

Sports Look is great for everyone, for many reasons! I enjoyed the nachos - totally recommend. There is also a nice, fun bar section which is great for watching sports. Along with a variety of local draft beer options. Definitely will be going back.

No clam chowder and no cole slaw! Food was good!
