Locos Grill & Pub, Eastside

Love, love, love the Gobbler sandwich.  It is one of my very favorite sandwiches!  Great staff, location, and menu!!!  Terrific place to watch the Dawgs!!!!!

Went in for lunch and got the black and bleu burger medium well based on my coworker's recommendation.
Ambiance: Mostly middle aged men there on their lunch break. I guess this location might not be the easiest to get to for all the students (?) Saw a couple of families wander in. Olympics on in the background so it was loud but mostly okay.
Service: Our server was training someone new so I'm sure he was trying to do it all by the book. Still, our food took a LONG time to come to the table. The trainee and the veteran server were both pleasant and attentive
Food: Like I said, black and bleu burger, medium well. Took a while to come out, meaning we got hungrier and hungrier till our objectivity began to fade :) But the burger was tasty. Was it a bougie, fusion burger worth $9? Probably not. For that, I would have expected higher quality beef (this stuff tasted like lower end ground chuck and was not seasoned well) and better bleu cheese. Something sharper, tangier, saltier, would have gone along much better.
The steak fries were delicious and the portion was huge for $9 so I can see why this could be a crowd favorite. That, and the fact that it's a local "chain" earns it at least 2 of the 3 stars I gave it. The last star was for those good fries.
Price: $9 for the burger, a pickle spear, and a smattering of steak fries. Not horrible but there is tastier food available for the same price downtown.

I came out here with my wife, stepson, and sister-in-law while on a trip out to go see my wife's grandfather.  We got there just before a thunderstorm moved in, and the lightshow outside was awesome.  Unfortunately, when we got there, we got seated in a particular location where the servers couldn't really see us, so unless the reception team tells the server that we're there, they don't know...  And the reception team didn't tell our server that we were there.  We sat and waited for something like 20 minutes, wondering where our server was, before one of us finally got up and went to find someone who could help us.  I don't entirely blame the server for this (although he could have made a circuit to check all his tables), as the reception team should have told him that he had a new table.  Still, the fact that it required one of us to get up and tell someone we were there didn't really endear me to the place.

The food itself was decent.  I don't recall at this moment what I got, but it certainly wasn't bad.  The table was rather wobbly, but that was easily fixed with some beer coasters.  I didn't get a chance to check the bathrooms or the food inspection score, however.  Overall, I would give it three stars, as they didn't really impress me either way.
