First off the food is over priced for serving cold hamburgers and stale buns. The ice cream ad usual is over priced and after three visits over the last month I've totally given up on finding an employee that isn't in a grumpy mood. It's kind of like their attitude is "your bothering me"
Sorry, I won't be back a fourth time.

Tell City Pour Haus Pub & Eatery

Reviewed By Shannon001 - Southern Indiana

We went on both Friday night and Saturday at lunch. Service on Friday was way better that lunch on Saturday. They offer several craft beers and offer taste samples. We enjoyed this service and most everyone tried and variety of their beers. Food was average to good. I think it depends on what is ordered. The chefs special - a smothered chicken - was popular while the BBQ nachos were not so great. This comes from a party of 20+ commenting. The restaurant has an outdoor area for music that is really nice. It was raining so there was nothing going on - this reviewer has been here before for outside music. There are two or three pool tables - a second bar and several large tables to accommodate large parties. Good meeting place!

The family and I went to the post for dinner. It was a great atmosphere for a small town restaurant. Good craft beers, good burgers and awesome appetizers. The pizza was tasty, quite the pleasant change from chain pizza. Service was very good and attentive. Will go again soon.

Fiesta Grande

Reviewed By Neill B - Amsterdam

This was a wonderful Mexican restaurant. Can't beat the food, the service, the bar, and the price was reasonably. I had the Durango-chicken, with spicy sauce-YUM!-at $11.99. My first visit was a crowded Saturday night-Even with the crowds, the service was very good. Returned for lunch-the same experience. And, this is from a guy who watches his carbs and doesn't usually eat at Mexican restaurants.

Los Amigos

Reviewed By skatermegs - Philadelphia

The service here was excellent, all the servers were super friendly, helpful, and there with a refill when needed. The restaurant is a quaint place, nicely situated near the hotels in town. Hearing pretty good reviews, we decided to give it a shot. Having lived in Southern California, my expectations for Mexican food are pretty high. Overall we enjoyed it, but it was definitely a mixed experience. The chips they brought immediately were warm, not at all greasy, very fresh, and delightful! The salsa was bland, and tasted very much like it came from a jar, with no spice to it. I ordered the chilaquiles, and my dining companion had the fajita quesadilla. I should have known when my server had to look at the menu to spell chilaquiles I had not made the best choice...
For both dishes the meat (chicken for me, and steak in the quesadilla) was cooked to perfection, and beautifully spiced. Had I ordered chicken nachos, I would have been thrilled at what I received, but they were not so great as chilaquiles. The quesadilla had very little cheese, and was actually more like a soft taco, although the flavor so far both were so good we didn't mind! We left very full, and will definitely go back and try them again! So, while not the most authentic, it's a great deal for the price and the food is quite satisfying!

It was nothing like any pizza actually from Chicago, but was good enough from a booth at Schweizer Fest for me to order three slices in a row! They do a great job.

Many different BBQ options along with chicken and pork...many choices of sauces. The salad bar is always fresh and delicious and the desert bar is...amazingly delicious. There's also À la cart menu offerings sandwiches, chicken and buffer take out. The staff is always friendly and tables kept clean.

We were so exhausted from a weekend that included a softball tournament and high school reunion that we didn't feel like getting dressed and going out to eat. Hotel recommended Carriage Inn for pizza carryout. We were not disappointed. Great taste, reasonable price and it hit the spot!

I got take-out General Tso's chicken with fried rice and an egg roll. The General Tso's didn't taste right...and it wasn't spicy at all. It was just a general brown sauce with a couple pieces of broccoli tucked in.
