Food was great! People were nice there too.

Great ribeye! Cool spot to hang out!

One of my favorite watering holes In Paducah, Kentucky. Great food, great pool tables and a beautiful outdoor garden patio.

Love the edible plants in the outdoor seating area! What a great idea!

Our Italian beef was excellent and our egg rolls were homemade! We had their homemade carrot cake and it was the bomb. Our server was very friendly. Looking forward to trying the steak.

If you’re looking for Good atmosphere, great food and good service, this is the place.

We drive in from Lexington quite frequently and this is our new favorite place for dinner in Paducah. I love the classic rock playing. Staff is friendly and the Ribeye is delicious and very affordable! They also have a cute patio.

Great place and good people. Bartenders are good. Food is phenomenal. Baked potatoes only available on Thursdays during steak night. Pool tables and house cues are the most well maintained and kept I've seen across the country. Tony the owner is the best kind of guy you can have in your corner. As a former employee who left on not so great terms i am still welcomed with open arms and treated like family. Will always be my home away from home. I've never had that at any other place of employment especially the bars in west Kentucky. This is by far the best place around for food, company, drinks, and pool. You can't beat it.
