Went to Miller's Ale house two weeks ago, after going to a movie, and absolutely loved it! Couldn't wait to get back.Earlier today went to another movie and, of course, back to Miller's Ale House. Got seated right away. Waitress came over right away. Took out drink and appetizer order. Came back with one drink saying the other drink was delayed because the tap, or something, wasn't working. We were fine with waiting. At that point we ordered our meals.The beer finally came after a short while but no appetizer. The beer was room temp but drinkable. Waitress came back and advised us our meals would be ready before the appetizer (pot stickers). She gave us the choice to cancel or to get it with the meal. We opted to get it.Meal came and no appetizer. My wife ordered the mahi mahi sandwich. Showed me and it was two small pieces of fish that together may have been half the size of a burger. This coming from the same restaurant stating, on their website, they're known for their portions. She enjoyed the flavors though.I had the southwest steak sandwich which was really good.After my wife finished her meal, I was still eating mine, the pot stickers arrived and they were so good and lava hot! They were probably just finished even though they were the first thing ordered.The salt on the wound was while we were eating the pot stickers the waitress came over and started taking out plates away, never asking if we were finished, which were weren't.Not the best of experiences at all, at least no where near the experience we had the first time going there.

Very much your chain pub/restaurant. Food was pretty good, beer selection was meh, and service was fine. Made for a good stop prior to going to the movies. Not fine dining, but that's not what you expect when you go to a place like this. Recommend

Excellent food options a cut above the typical chain restaurants. Nice they have interesting items like cheese curds, pretzels, fresh donuts.

Been trying to get in here for some time. We dined early and was able to get in quickly. The dining room is nice and clean. They have a very large bar and a ton of tv's. We ordered the garlic parm potatoe chips and some wings for apps. If you like garluc, the chips are an excellent started. I really enjoyed the thai chili wings. My son. Had ribs and I had a mahi sandwich. Both entrees came out quick and were really good. The service was ok... pretty much what you would expect from a sportsbar. If gettig the mahi, Iwould suggest some tartar as it was pretty dry, but good.

Good espresso martiniUpdated: I just gave you guys s great review. However, my curbside experience today was horrible.

The food was unremarkable however decent enough for bar food. While waiting for friends I sat at the bar. The bartender did not appear overly busy but seemed more engaged in conversation with a colleague than the guests. Fortunately, my friends visiting from Ireland and Germany arrived so we then sat at a table. We happened to have a very experienced and attentive server. He seemed to know how to handle large groups and took care of us so we had no reason to complain. One thing I always appreciate is when the server removes dirty, empty glasses and plates, which our server did. For appetizers we shared a warm Bavarian pretzel, Tex-Mex chicken nachos, and cheese curds. For dinner, the Southwest Seared Steak Salad was decent although the steak was overly tenderized, as most cheap cuts of meat are. A colleague had the Osso Buco. It was a large portion for the price but he said he'd had better elsewhere. Overall, for a bar it was pretty good.

Excellent place, everything good ?????

We were seated and our server lost us in the shuffle. But that being said, food was good and the servers were very friendly. Close to five stars (less a few small hiccups)

First time at this place with my family. Overall the place was nice, atmosphere was good, we had a 25 minute wait, but nothin bad about that. We were seated, all was good our waitress was nice. We ordered our drinks then shortly after our appetizer and meals. All was good until it all of a sudden became extremely hot and unbearable, to a point that ruined our want to eat anything. The food was so so, not something to be excited about, I didn't go for drinks but there is a bar. Overall I was not impressed with the restaurant, but to each there own. This was what I experienced hopefully others will have a better one.

First time here. A little disappointed that it took over 20 minutes to get our drinks. The chicken zingers looked NOTHING like they advertise. Burgers were decent but not cooked the way I requested (medium). Both were rare in the middle. Bathrooms were dirty too. I have no desire to eat here again.
