Shoeless Joe’s Restaurant & Bar

Three strikes and I’m out. Ive tried this place thre times in the past 8 months. First time went for drinks and food after a game. Nachos came out burnt with the cheese having gone crispy — way past melted. Second time I went with my daughter. We had fish and chips. The fish was not crispy but greasy when we put a fork into it. Third time, two of us went for lunch. Service was incredibly slow even though there was only two tables being occupied (1.5 hrs from start to finish). The «closer» chicken burger and side salad was decent. Raspberry poppyseed vinaigrette was excellent. Also had an angus burger with portobello mushroom that was mediocre at best. Be aware — a baked potato is a side option but it’s a joke. My potato showed up cold. No apology from the server. It only comes with a packet of butter. If you want sour cream be prepared to pay another dollar for it (on top of the already high price of $ 16). I might return for drinks at the bar but I won’t be returning for the food any time soon.

Normally not a fan of chain restaurants, especially of the sports bar variety but I have to say this place is awesome. The staff is so friendly and kind. Good with seniors and children. The menu is tasty and the kids meals are great and generous. My son is 10 and quite often kid’s meals are too small and bland for him. Quality and value was there for the kids and the adult portions were also great. Highly recommend it, just too bad you have to nearly kill yourself to get into the parking lot when heading eastbound.

Get the Rib combo it’s called the dipped and tossed or something like that… make sure its done with the Kansas city sauce on both and sit back and be amazed. Seriously you don’t even need teeth to eat these ribs, I especially love the crack additives they add. mmmm good. I thought this was so good that I came back 3 nights in a row and tested the same meal 3 times and it was rock solid perfect everytime. best ribs I have ever had. and about the best wings too!
After eating this I was so in aww I forgot the name of the plate!
