Came here on a Friday night and we had to wait for a table. No worries... It was a glorious evening. We were seated and a succession of servers took our drink order. If you've never been here, the draft beer list is expansive & it's cold when it arrives. Ordered a burger and fries and a chicken gyro. As we waited they had the AC blasting. Usually I run hot - really hot - but even I was cold. After an hour of waiting I flagged down what I supposed was our primary server (they seem to do it by committee) and she said they were plating it as we spoke... 15 more minutes and it finally arrived. The food was underwhelming and they forgot my fries. When those came out, though, they were HOT and delicious.I've been to Ray's when it's been much better. The beer was excellent and we didn't lack for refills. The rest of the evening was forgettable including the service. However, I think this was the exception and not the rule. I'll try them again.

Did dinner here and although the advertise their wings as the biggest and baddest, they aren't all that big. Now the smoked wings I had were nice and tasty. The service was very good.

There were 5 of us at 6 pm on a Wednesday. We got sat immediately. Jovial atmosphere.Four people had burgers and one had the meatloaf dinner. You have to order fires separately. They are $4.50 a basket. Not sure this would work for a single person.I ordered the Gourmet Burger and was looking forward to the caramelized onions. Must have been an off day as those onions were just burnt. The other burgers were good.Our server was really good. She checked back several times to see if we needed anything.

Best Long Island that I've had in a while. Try the Hot Nachos with meat (pork on my case), as it's great , and it is truly a meal by itself. Wings were good (hot sauce) but cannot be ordered as drum or flats only. Somehow out of 12, the majority of mine were "flats", which are not my favorite, so my wing enjoyment was tainted slightly by missing drums. Fyi, burgers don't come with fries, so make sure to add those! Will be back soon!

We had such an awful experience and meal this past Sunday (Mother's Day). Ten minutes after they opened, we ordered food to be eaten outside on the picnic tables. We had to wait 21 minutes for 2 kids entrees and 1 appetizer. We didn't even get our drinks- I had to ask for them. The kids' spaghetti and meatballs and onions in them. We. had to take them out. Our poutine fries were cold and gravy tasted like it came from a jar. The pork - if you call it that- had no taste at all. I am only giving them 1 star because the 2nd kids entree- a cheeseburger- was big and the fries were hot. Overall, save your money on food and don't go in. You will be highly disappointed.

I enjoyed my burger and fries and the beer list is impressive, but the waiter was inattentive. I had to flag him down to take our order. Once he did finally take our order, the food came out quickly. When we finished our meal, I had to go to the bar to pay as our waiter was nowhere to be found. We were there on one of the rare times that the place wasn't busy.

Great service & great Bloody Mary’s !

What a cute place!! Food is delicious l!! So many items on the menu I must try!!

Great food, tasty drinks and a wonderful atmosphere. Family friendly restaurant downstairs and upstairs with more of a bar setting and a couple pool tables. Super nice place ?

The meatloaf sandwich and hamburger was HUGE and tasty.It's a bar so low lights and writing on the wall. They have a decent menu... lots to choose from. It was fast, little pricey the sandwich alone was $9. The staff was friendly enough.It's in Kent so there's a lot to do near by and in walking distance.
