the beer is crap - i have done better with my own homebrews. if you want good beer, got to shclafley's or route 66 at union station. but the food is great and the atmosphere is very nice.

excellent atmosphere, good prices, some of the best burgers ever. got to try the root beer!

food is above average, atmosphere a ton of fun, lots of beers that are other than pale yellow, thank god.

very cheap, better than expected beer selection, atmosphere decent, and the food's good too!

There's finally a good mexican restaurant in alton!!!!!!! no need to drive to st louis - i like el mezcal better than casa gallardo. and its cheaper.

a little cramped, a little tacky, but good food and reasonable prices. very good staff.

i really dislike the redecorated dining section, but the food is as great as ever. very smoky.

the food is awful - it's trying way too hard to be haute cuisine and failing miserably. the impressive ambience and menu descriptions do not at all make up for the utterly bland or (worse yet) mis-spiced entrees.

the food is good, the service isn't great, but it is pretty fast. everyone fom high-schoolers to families w/ kids to senior citizens all hours of the day, which is fun.

and that's 10-15 dollars for a pizza for 2-4. best on campus. actually moderately reminiscent of real italian pizza. wow.

NOT the best gyros ever. as gyros go, they are below average. but as far as campus food goes, its REALLY good. more expensive than the mcdonalds across the street, but so what?

very good food, very overpriced drinks, VERY VERY cool atmosphere -you feel bad if you show up in jeans.

i would give it 5 stars for the food, beer, prices, atmospher (check out what they doid with the new dining room that used to be bw3's) but there's one problem: the french fries SUCK SUCK SUCK!!!!! if you like fries, it's a problem.

GOT to try the sunday special haystack. atmosphere best on campus. best bar food next to murphys.

inconvenient location, so-so atmospher, excellent foo. it's a chain, but it's a very good chain.

atmosphere exceptional - same designer as Fado's in Denver, CO. small menu, great beer.

great atmosphere, great food, great prices, beer is second only to grizzly peak. nearly all are very hoppy.

best restaurant ever - i crave it ever since moving away. of the twenty or thirty i've been to in this country, the best microbrew - something for everyone. can't miss the desserts, no matter how stuffed you are. and the orange duckling, though pricey, must be tried once. best part of the meal is the fresh bread made from the spent brewing grains - i've started making my own at home, but it doesn't compare!!!!

beautiful interior, wonderful place to spend an evening - dress up or go casual. great for a date.

wow - this is great food in a fun place. worth the trip to check it out. take home some donuts, cause you'll be too stuffed for dessert!
