Labemi's Tavern On Main

Like a few others have said, eating here is like if a good friend or relative of yours had a really killer basement with a few kegs and some dartboards. It was a fun place to be inside, because of the ambiance, and the food is pretty good too.

We came here for a Friday night fish fry, which was very good. Good portion size, and the fish is done pretty nicely.

The only real reason I don't come here very often is because I greatly prefer the beer selection across the street at Duke's.

The reason I would give this a four is because the prices could be better. The thing that I like about it is that there is a great atmosphere, there's a mix of all age groups, and there's music. The music wasn't crazy loud and the place wasn't packed. We went when they were still serving food, but didn't get any. There are all sorts of tables to choose from and the decor was nice. As far as the beer selection, it was good. It wasn't the best, but there was a wide variety of domestic, import, and microbrews.

In search of cheap eats and something new, we were lured here by some seriously stellar Yelp reviews.  And, much to our chagrin, we were pretty disappointed.

On the bright side, it's like hanging out in your friend's grandparent's basement.  Totally old school and totally comfortable.  The staff is beyond friendly.  They make you feel like family.  That's why it pains me to write this review...

The food was not that great.  The walleye and ribs that came highly recommended were both subpar.  The walleye was littered with bones.  The fish fry batter was strangely sweet.  The ribs were dry.  And, in the end, the bill was higher than we had anticipated.  Sad :(
