Service we recieved tonight was excellent. Only is issue i was to recieve a text after checking in that our table was ready. Never recieved the text even after the did confirm the number at check in. So be sure to check as your time nears at the check in desk.

We got there around 4pm and were immediately seated. This was a plus due to it being a very busy day on the strip. We were quickly greeted by our server, who quickly had out drinks to our table (party of 6). The music could've been better, but wasn't horrible. The place is decorated cool and it was clean on the inside. Our food came out pretty quick. We 4 kids tender meals, which were reasonably priced. I had the Redneck Nachos, which was nothing more than cold cheese and spoon full of meat. Check out the picture. In all honesty, they were horrible, $17 for a bag of chips. I then had to pay $1 for about 10 jalapeños. My wife haf the Oklahoma Onion burger. It was WELL DONE and all the cheese had melted off onto the cold fries. Overall, very, very disappointed with our meal!

Although my tots was a little saltier than I like and my meal was spicy, I think that?s my personal preference so I?m still giving them 5 stars because I?m sure a lot of people like it that way. Our server was very nice and attentive. I had more than I could eat, big servings.

Our waiter was really professional and friendly. But the food was just not good. My husband had the bacon wrapped meatloaf and it really lacked seasoning. I had the brisket sandwich, and I did not enjoy the sausage on it. If they ever change their menu I would love to give the restaurant another try.

We had reservations for 6:30 pm and were seated within 10 minutes despite the restaurant being busy. Our waitress was pleasant, but she forgot to bring us butter for our biscuits, which should not be a request when serving biscuits. The food was mediocre. I ordered the Nashville Hot Champagne of Chicken (1/2) and my cousin had the meatloaf. The chicken was just okay, not terrible, not great. It didn't come with any vegetables, only dry biscuits and a small cup of white gravy. The spice was visible, but it wasn't hot. The meatloaf my cousin had was disappointing, with a texture and taste worse than a TV dinner. The entertainment was provided by JD Shelburne, who had a nice voice but kept reminding us to tip constantly, which became annoying quickly. Overall, we were highly disappointed as we had expected this meal to be a highlight of our trip, and we won't be returning.

Our waitress was very attentive. The pulled pork was delicious, we especially liked the barbecue sauce. I wish there had been more chicken in the chicken pot pie. There was enough of our funnel cake dessert to feed a crowd!

Well in our case not so much. Hopefully others will have a better time.

They didn't even label the beyond burger as vegan even though obviously it is, lol. The waitress seemed very confused when I asked about the cashew ranch, checked for me, and said they didn't have it. I would assume their fries are vegan (ask for no cheese sauce) and their fried pickles green tomatoes (labeled vegetarian, not vegan... But unless there's milk in the breading idk what would make them non vegan...they are served with ranch--i wonder if that's why it's not labeled vegan). They always have live music and their mocktails are DELISH. It was a very fun vibe and has some vegan options but it's nothing extraordinary. Updated from previous review on 2023-01-21

Also a side of vinegar slaw that we added to the burger for flavour (thanks to the suggestion of another reviewer! . Burger tasty. Bun was ok, but just a sugar bun. Good option for a central location in town. We were excited to enjoy some live music with dinner.
