Champps Americana

They got 3/4 orders incorrect. The food was mediocre at best. The fries and onion rings were the best things on the plate. The best part was the seating and a great view of the tv. If it wasn't for that we would have been much more upset. We will not be back even with a $10 coupon from a manager.

Go somewhere else! I am only giving it 2 stars b/c you can call ahead and make a 'reservation'

However, they seated us in between what seemed like dinner for a tweens lacrosse end of season celebration. Tons of tweens zipping by our table and parents downing beers in the chaos.

One waitress asked us if we really wanted to sit here or if we would like to move - hence reason #2 for 2 stars and not 1. But that is where the good times ended.

Our waiter was nonchalant. The coconut shrimp came with a sauce that couldn't choose a flavor identity - was it sweet/spicy or was it wasabi? We will never know.

The barbecue pizza came out barely warm and barely toasted. We also ordered the KOBE burger and that was pretty good! Our drinks took a long time. I ordered a spiked strawberry lemonade that had more pureed strawberry than liquid.

Ugh - we were hungry and in a rush so we did not complain.  But of course - we will never go back.

I came here more often when I worked across the street. The food and service here are a lot better than you'd expect for a chain place. The bartenders here are super friendly and get to know your name even if you don't stop in that often. The food is standard bar fair, but it's well done and there's some solid healthy options. Food specials seem to change seasonally.

It gets good traffic for sporting events because they have a lot of well positioned TVs. It's a big open space, so it can be a little loud. There's a private dinning area that we used to do fantasy football drafts in.
