“ Skye was great! Great service, great food, and great atmosphere! I was there 2 weeks ago and forgot to leave review then but had to come back and let you know 10/10 service and will definitely be back! ”
“ DELICIOUS! Definitely recommend if you’re around. Our server, Froy, was being trained and gave incredible service along with his trainer. We got fried pickles, which were amazing and enough to feed a whole family! Baked Mac and Cheese got a 10/10, and the brisket got the job done. Sweet potato fries were also a hit at our table. They also signed us up for their rewards program and got us half off our app on Tuesday! We will definitely be back or make our way to another one of their locations!!! ”
“ It was our first time here and Miriam was a great waitress! She was very thorough, accommodating and prompt. Plus we were able to have our two dogs join us on the patio during our dinner. Yay! Food and drinks were very yummy! The variety of cocktails and mocktails for their summer drink menu was awesome. We split a platter which was delicious and more than enough for two of us. We had leftovers for the next day! We will be back again. ”
“ Great service and food. Server did a wonderful job of explaining why he carded a 60+ yr old guy! lol, Margaritas were a little weak but they were delicious. Thanks for a great lunch! ”
“ Parker Johns has becoming institution in Oshkosh for barbecue dining. They sometimes run out of specials. They feature a great selection of beers on tap. The portions are generous and everything I’ve had here has been genuinely delicious. They have healthy choices too. I fly in every July for the annual AirVenture airshow. I stay in the university dorms and this is an easy walk for dinner. ”
“ Love this place. Great food and consistently good service the multiple times that I have been there. The outdoor patio has lots of games and fun things to do. There are umbrellas to shade you from the Sun and a fire pit to keep you warm by night. Get a nice view of the sunset from the patio. It's a very fun environment if you haven't been there I highly recommend going ”
