We stopped in on a Friday night, choosing Macado's after driving around to all our usual restaurants and seeing those parking lots packed with people waiting outside. We had not been to Macado's in years and wasn't really expecting much except decent, good sized sandwiches. It was not crowded at all..hardly any cars in the parking lot (which I took for a bad sign) We were seated promptly in a booth within ear shot of the bar and the patrons sitting there. (the very loud patrons, they seemed to be regulars) Our server (Jessica? maybe? sorry) was very nice. We ordered water and beers and black bean con queso with chips for an appetizer. All came out promptly and we then ordered a sandwich (turkey, bacon, avocado, cheese on sourdough bun...I forget the name of it. Also the chicken parm. with side salad. Everything was very good. Huge sandwich and that sourdough bun was delicious! It came with a bag of chips, which I thought was a bit tacky. Chicken parm was ordered with the grilled chicken rather than the breaded and fried chicken and was on top of a generous serving of pasta. Very good. Our server was very attentive. No complaints with her. As I mentioned we had not been to Macado's in years. The menu was exactly the same and the restaurant looked exactly the same as well. I had read that they had done renovations recently...to what? Everything looked the same. I'm glad to give it a good review, but from reading previous reviews it might be a hit or miss kind of place.Thanks for the comprehensive review! You had a Big City Jazz. We switched to individual bags for chips a few years ago. We also thought it was tacky at first but found it to be the cleaner option for both the customers and the kitchen. The renovations were mostly to the bar and hostess area. Hope to see you all again soon!

Chilis is a great chain which we have visited in Florida several times. In Beckley, West Virginia, we had a terrible experience. After a long day on the road, all we wanted was hot food, a drink then head off to the hotel. We were greeted with a lacklustre hostess, who simply dropped of the menus and left, not barely a word. Our waitress took or order of a beer and asked for our ID, she was unsure on how to read our Canadian drivers license. After she took the order, the bartender came over and asked to see it again, he stated he was unsure if he could take Canadian ID, really? We are in our 60's! When we got our appetizer we were not given individual plates. The waitress walked by our table 6 times, we were unable to catch her eye. When we finished she asked if we wanted dessert, we said no and received our bill. Unfortunately the bartender was not available to speak to, so I contacted the head office to let them know this happened. the head office was very prompt to respond, but it is an experience I will never forget. Again, terrible service, really was disappointing evening. We will NEVER visit that restaurant again, but will use the one in Florida.

This Hooters restaurant is located off the highway and close to Tamarack and Beckley exhibition coalmine as well as many other restaurants and hotels. They have excellent chicken wings . I had regular barbeque and my brother had parmesean garlic ones. Service was good as was the wings. Their wing special is Wednesday. They also have excellent fish and chips as well as chicken sandwiches and other menu options. Desserts are excellent and large.There are many tvs to watch sporting events and the restaurant is spacious. I have visited here a few times while in the area and are never disappointed with the food. There are also Hooters logo items for purchase.

The best thing about it was its location inside the Holiday Inn. After almost 9hrs on the road I did not want to go out (there are several other places nearby but you needed to drive)The server was helpful and efficient. I had a burger that was cooked properly and tasty. They do have several booths with TVs in them (an annoying trend). The bar was on one side and partly hidden with a wall. All in all, an ok dinner.

Visited with friends to watch a card of MMA fights on two successive Saturday evenings. The first Saturday was a title fight and all TVs in the bar were tuned to the fights. On the second, the TVs were playing a variety of sports channels, but the waitress tuned the TVs near our table so that we could watch the fights. Food was typical bar food - burgers, wings, etc.

Haven't been here in quite a while. Menu was a bit different, not as many items as they used to have. (the menu here on TA is an old one) Ordered the nachos for appetizers. Huge portion, lots of chips, but overly smothered in cheese-wiz, not fresh grated cheese. With some chopped tomatoes, black olives, jalapeno's, lettuce..big spoonful of sour cream. No chicken or ground beef...maybe you can order that extra. We also ordered the Baja burger, but with a grilled chicken patty, and the Philly Cheesesteak sandwich. Both were just ok. We've always had good food at Fosters and we expected the same tonight. Maybe it was an off-night, or different chef or we just ordered the wrong things. Service was good and friendly. Atmosphere is the same, so very glad about that.

Great service (Thomas- friendly, chatty and a great job), probably the best dinner rolls weâve ever had and a nice atmosphere. Food (grilled chicken, rice pilaf, potatoes, chicken tenders, Mac and cheese, boneless chipotle wings, fries) was all good. Relaxing end to our travel day. We walked from our hotel (about 5 minutes). Good time, weâd stop back. kenosha2005,Thank you for the kind words! We're happy to hear Thomas took great care of you and that your food came out hot and delicious! We look forward to your next visit. Take care!

Wife and I were both in the mood for a good burger, so we decided on Cheddar's. Typically they are one of the better places to go for burgers, but not so tonight. Our burgers were borderline inedible. I believe they changed them altogether. It was nothing but a greasy mess, and very bland. I managed to eat half of mine before calling it quits, and I ALWAYS finish a burger. My wife took three bites of hers and couldn't handle anymore. When the server came with the check, she asked if we needed boxes. I politely declined and asked if they changed their recipe lately. She said she didn't believe so and asked if it was not good. I said no it was not good at all. I already had my card out to give her when she brought the check to the table. Apparently she didn't find it unusual to have so much food left on the plates and not even take boxes for it. All she said was I'm sorry as she took the check and bright back my receipt with a thank you. I didn't push the issue, but I won't be returning to Cheddar's anytime soon.

2. Calacino's Pizzaria

Reviewed By mbovary2019
Passing through Beckley, my family of four wanted to experience some local, non-chain food for dinner. Calacino's seemed like just the place. It took a second to realize that there are really two entrances, one in front for the family-style restaurant and one on the side for the sports bar. From the outside, the whole establishment looked pretty old school, but when you walked in the restaurant and saw a man spinning pizza dough in the air with his fingers, you knew you had arrived somewhere special. The Friday night crowd was lively, and most people seemed to know each other. Many people filtered in and out of the sportsbar section, and chatted with the servers. Our waitress was welcoming, and seated us right away. The menu has all the Italian / pizza place-items you'd expect. We went for pepperoni pizza and lasagna. Both were yummy and satisfying. Overall, if you are traveling through town and want to sample an old school local restaurant, try Calacino's out. You'll be happy you did.

After very slow service during our last visit we were a bit hesitant to try Dobra's again but very glad we did. We arrived early, no one in dining rooms and a few patrons in the bar area. Seated right away. Ordered drinks which came out quickly. We got the catfish bites as appetizers and they were very good as usual. Entrees were the Mediterranean Chicken, which I had before...(stick with a good thing, right!) and the Risotto with chicken. Side of salad with sweet basil dressing and the soup of the day...(black bean I think..he liked it) Veggies sides were the green beans with bacon and grilled asparagus...both very good! Everything was very good, hot and came out with perfect timing. Big portions too. We shared the lemon creme cake which was great too. There were two servers, which was good to see as in the past we have seen only one on some nights which has to be a challenge. The restaurant was starting to fill up as we left. So glad to see this place still doing well...and the food has stayed consistently very good! Keep it up! The menu is great right now...don't change it too much more! Including the prices! :) Stay as is.So glad you enjoyed your experience and keep coming back. Donât worry we wonât change the menu too much but we do like to mix things up with seasonal changes. Sometimes we even grow our own veges our back ;-). Our specials are also a way for us to test out new additions to the menu, and a way for us to stretch our creative legs. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram @dobrazupas for sneak peaks of all the new and special items. We look forward to your next visit and hope we keep meeting, or exceeding, expectations.
