    We were in the area for a couple of weeks and are trying out one restaurant per day. When we got to this one, it seemed like a nice local place, had plenty of customers. Nobody acknowledged us for 10 minutes at the table, and I figured maybe i have to order at the bar or they were just too busy. Went to the bar and i was unacknowledged there for a bit as well. We finally ordered from the bartender and she was maybe the rudest person I've encountered in Wisconsin. Her whole demeanor was very off-putting. I ordered an appetizer and two meals. Waited around for a while (not terribly long) and had to basically beg to get another beer. Food came out. Never got the appetizer because the kitchen made the wrong dish. When she asked if I still wanted it I said "no I already have a meal and I don't need an appetizer afterwards" she walked off mid sentence on me twice while I was talking to her and made a comment the second time when she was walking away as if I did something by not wanting to wait on an appetizer I didn't need anymore. We ate and the food was delicious. Went to pay for our meal and my buddy paid cash for his. I told him I would get the tip. So he left the leftover dollar bill from his meal and left. The same bartender seen he only left $1 (not knowing I was leaving her tip) told me to give it back to him and I told her to keep it as I am signing my ticket and she said "no, please give it back to him" like it wasn't good enough for her... Honestly, it was more than she deserved after treating us that way. I will never go back. That's not how you act towards people you've never even met before and we did nothing wrong besides pick that bar to eat at.

    Stopped for lunch today and found out it was "wing day". The wings were great and the selection of sauces was pretty big. Food came out fast, smelled good, and tasted even better. Big seller was our bartender, Court. She was very outgoing, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed. First time at this bar & grill was a good experience, will visit again!

    Food was good but bartender was inattentive. We waited 15 mins to get our bill while the bartender was taking shots. Other people were waiting for drinks too.

    Me and my friend just wanted to place a to-go order for a sprite and a milkshake. We tell the hostess and she asks us to wait a minute. Ok. She seats the people in front of us and then starts seating the people that got there after us. We waited on the hostess for 10-15mins. In all fairness it was busy. So we walk up to the bar. The bartender really seemed like she would have rather been anywhere but there. She was not friendly. She tells my friend that it will be 15 minutes for a shake and that there are 6 shakes in front of her. My friend orders a shake anyways and it literally took 5 mins. Overall, just kinda disorganized and unhelpful for what was literally just a shake and a fountain drink to go.

    If the food didn’t take a total of 3 hrs to get to us, I’d say it was good. Not worth the time. The bar tender was drunk and took over 20min to take our first drink and food order. If she wasn’t stopping to take shots midway through the order, it wouldn’t have taken so long. I even wiped down the tables for her! Also! We had about 8 people and the food started to come out 1:30hr later and took another 1:30 to finish getting all of the food yet so no one got to eat together. I don’t understand why food took so long with hardly anyone there and why we weren’t warned they were sooo backed up?? I’d go negative if I could.

    Horrible experience. It took TWO HOURS to get our food. For some reason the bartender had it in to go boxes and wouldn't let us even finish our initial order. So it took 20 minutes to finish our order and that part took forever to come out. We had to REMIND them that we ordered. There were others also very irritated that it takes one hour and a half to make ONE TACO. We would have not gone here if we knew this was the case. If you cannot handling making a single order within 2 hours, why would you keep your kitchen open???? Just focus on drinks.

    Have been here several times, never had any major problems, food is always good. Little slow the last time, but wasn't an issue.

    Don’t come here if you’re from anywhere other than Pewaukee, Wisconsin! Was excited to try this place while visiting a friend… walked in and apparently if you’re not local you don’t belong. Claimed they do not accept out of state IDs? I couldn’t believe it. Never go here.

  • 1/5 Donald M. 2 years ago on Google
    Web site says $2 domestic bottles on Tuesdays after 6. After paying $3.75 for my first beer, I asked about the special. The bartender said she has never sold a $2 bottle. I showed her the bars web page. She said there wasn't a special.

  • 1/5 Nicole H. 2 years ago on Google
    Literally the worst place I've ever been to. Awful service. I saw mice scurrying across the floor and there were bugs in our food. Go literally to any other place in pewaukee. This is NOT IT. Also, don't bother if your ID doesn't say "pewaukee, wi" because you will not get served.

  • 4/5 Will J. 2 years ago on Google
    Always decent food and drinks, love to just boat up to the doc and grab some food. The bang bang shrimp and fish are family favorites. I like the avocado bacon burger and the Cuban.

  • 1/5 Grace S. 2 years ago on Google • 1 review
    Worst bar I’ve literally ever come in contact with. Staff couldn’t have been more rude. Out of state ids not accepted. If you’re visiting don’t bother. There’s so many better bars don’t even bat an eye at this place. The scary predator men in there made me want to puke in my mouth and swallow it. In complete honesty I would rather suffer death by electric chair than breathe the same air as anyone in that bar ever again.

    If you are of any race of color do not go here. I never write reviews but I had to this time because this is an important matter. The bar patrons will let you know you are not welcome. Went last night to watch the game and was immediately let know I was not welcome by a bar patron who seemed to be a local. The staff said nothing and the only person who seemed to care I was leaving was a lady who told me …no you don’t have to leave. I left anyway. I had not had a drink or food because this happened within 2 minutes of being in the bar. It’s a shame that we still have to worry about stuff like this.
