THE WALNUT SPEAK EASY REVIEWS

Best traditional chicken wings ever. I’ve been all over the country and these are simply the best. Service is always great, food always fresh, and vibes are fun. I’ve never been to a restaurant more than this one, honestly.

Place is always a fun time. We always spend way too much money when we come here but all the food is always amazing. Buffalo cheese curds and the giant pretzel alone make it worth it.

What a nice little rustic gem! Excellent food. Good service. Looked like a great selection of alcohol. Restaurant was clean. Highly recommended if you're in the area.

ROOKIES SPORTS BAR & GRILL REVIEWS

We were looking for a pub/bar atmosphere, so few of the classic pubs still around. Rookies was great. Great service, big menu selection, bright atmosphere, but not too loud so you can also talk. I had the Reuben. Very tasty, but a little light on corned beef and sauerkrat.

Every time i come here the service is friendly and fast. The manager is super cool. If you sit at the bar on the weekends ask for Jelly she's awesome, gives great service, and makes you feel like a regular even if it's your first time!!!!! I suggest the nachos, best nachos I've had in a minute.

Great place. This is the second time my husband and I are there. Great atmosphere. Great selection of food choices. I wanted to try so many. I had a great fried chicken sandwich. So good. I can't wait to go back.

OLD REPUBLIC KITCHEN + BAR REVIEWS

Decided to have my dad’s 60th dinner here, they said they could accommodate a bigger group. They did not disappoint. Upon arriving everyone was super friendly and they had our table ready and reserved. They even helped me with a cake that I brought in. The server was so sweet, and so helpful. She didn’t mess one thing up, everyone was so happy with their food, and the atmosphere. It was so nice to have such a friendly waitress, she really did an amazing job and I’m very thankful. Thank you for the great memories we will have from celebrating such an important milestone!! Highly recommend.

The ribs and chicken tenders were so juicy. I don't like white meat it says a lot that I will be back just for the tenders. The ribs were incredibly tender and juicy. The portions were very generous. The carrot cake was delicious and fresh. I highly recommend this place.

We held a birthday party here. We used the tent that's connected to the building. The server was amazing he kept drinks full and the space was very nice. The food is very good and everybody complimented the chicken tenders and the Italian beef. I would definitely recommend having a party here.
