Half-Time Downtown Grille

The Lovely and Talented Mrs. K and I took my mom here for dinner tonight. Very cold night out and our table was right by the door so it was ridiculously cold. We beat the rush for Friday dinner, yet service was slow (but not unacceptably so). We ordered a burger (mom was happy with it) a rueben, and a cubano. All came with steak or chive fries. The rueben was not thin sliced as advertised but, rather, really thick slices. Not a bad substitution, but the thick slices were REALLY fatty. The cubano had a bit of potential, but the pork was dry enough to use as tinder to start a fire and that’s not right. Fries were good, but not $ 43 good. Drinks were acceptable but not good, and a long time coming. We probably will not return.

Excellent. It has taken a major turn since they got a new chef in. I have been very impressed the last two times we went. My mom wasn’t overly thrilled with her fish fry. I really liked the Mac n cheese and another time a got a BBQ sandwhich.

Just stopped in and checked out the new menu. The tenderloin they added was awesome. Was cooked perfect and seasoned just right.
A great add. Something i will be back for for sure. Who doesnt like good steak, beer and football. Halftime is a great spot for it all and great pizzas

Fish fry is solid. Very good homemade potato pancakes. Breading in fish is light and very good. Coleslaw was creamy and had good flavor. Very reasonable prices. Service a bit slow but that would be only negative. They were able to seat our party of 8 within minutes on a Friday night. They also have a free party room available with a great deal on pizza/​soda. For the price/​taste very good value.

Very tasty, party of 6 enjoyed everything ! Especially the sour cream and chive fries

Mediocre at best. The chicken wings dry and tough. But they woulda been ok had I not ordered it with the spicy garlic sauce. Which as basically red hot and smudge of garlic powder. Wings where awful.
had a bacon cheese burger which the burger itself was good. But they put some kind of weird cheese sauce on it which ruined the burger. Maybe I just ordered wrong. But the burgers could be good. Just not sure.
The staff was friendly, the place was clean (including bathroom). Rating is based Entirly on the food.

Start out with the positives… We had boneless wings which were great! Cheese curds were pretty good and Kids meals were good as well. We really like the overall bar and atmosphere…
Unfortunately, the bad part was the service. Not busy at all, maybe four tables but lack of attention. Taking order friendly, asking how first bites are etc should be normal, but did not really get that here. When soda and beers are empty, refilling not only means happy customers but better bill and tips. The service was less than friendly… this is easy to either coach or change… not sure how third review of restaurant should still have this as the issue. Great service combined with good food would have brought us back but we will not go back again.

Have enjoyed good food there several times. However, the other reviews regarding the service are absolutely correct. Upon walking in you are lucky to receive even a smile or nod. The service is OK afterwards, but definite room for improvement. That being said, I do believe this is something that can be easily correctly. The food is the main ingredient and I haven’t had anything I dislike.
