   The meatball started was very good, salad bar was great , but a little disappointed in the prime rib, last time it was really tender this time a little tough. The service stated off good but declined once more people arrived. Could see our drinks waiting to be picked up from he bar for quit a long time.

   So happy Steak & Ale is back! So incredibly good & the service was excellent! All the servers were attentive to their surroundings & many took care of us (not just our waiter who was fabulous )! His name was Lauro. I haven’t had w vice like this in years. For food we had the Hawaiian chicken & Almond crusted walleye. Large portions! Also, includes a small loaf of bread with pecan butter! Yum! Also, the entrees include the salad bar! Who has a salad bar anymore! The Steak & Ale does! They were also playing nice, dinner music. 60’s 70’s & 80’s. I loved it! Everyone needs to stop in for a meal. You won’t be disappointed!

   Food was mediocre but the service was very good. Had high hopes based on years-ago experience.

   Service was great, no bread givin to table, guests baked potato semi hot, salad bar best part of meal. Walleye overcooked and smelled like old oil. Steak was over seasoned . Had high hopes as use to be a huge fan, a little bit of a disappointment.

   Worst experience! Made a reservation for a birthday dinner a month in advance, got seated and never saw anyone after that, someone brought bread to the table and no server ever showed up, no water, nothing! I was excited when Steak and Ale came back, but this place is an insult to the old one! We left after being ignored for 20 minutes and took our business elsewhere! We will never be back, and would absolutely recommend NOT wasting your time and money here!!!

   We decided to try a favourite of old...the restart of the Steak and Ale brand. A salad bar is just that...a salad bar...so go for the main courses. The Prime Rib is as delicious as I remember it to be; thankful that the original recipes were a part of what the new owners of the brand wanted to restart. One in our party has the Kensington Club...it is rare you see a 70+ gentleman suddenly want to lick his plate clean, but our party member sure liked that steak! :P A very nice wine selection compliments the menu. It can get quite loud because of the space...so if you want quiet...ask for a table/Booth on the East side of the Bar.

    Our server was not on his game when it came to service; our drink glasses sat empty, with our server nowhere to be found. He was also very pushy when it came time to order, by “suggesting” we order this, not that. With regards to the food, the steaks were appropriately seasoned and cooked. However, my baked potato was cold. In the end, my potato was replaced with a fresh one, but again, the server was disgruntled about having to get me a new one. When our meal was finished, we waited 20-minutes for our check; again, our server was nowhere to be found. All in all, this is not the Steak and Ale I remember. The restaurant has a completely different feel than the original chain. I will not be returning to this restaurant again. Save your money and go to Outback instead.
