“Did not have the best experience:/ called to make an appointment with a curly certified specialist and was told to go to Cassie, who “did curls”. Sat down in the chair and asked her about her specializing in curls and she replied with “yes I love cutting curly hair”. No one was upfront with me that they were not trained in curls, so I was very disappointed when my hair was getting pulled straight and cut straight across (curly girls you know:/). Wish they would have been upfront with me, also my fault I didn’t do my research I guess. Was overall really rough with my hair and just seemed like aimlessly cutting. People were nice just not a great experience for someone wanting a curl cut!”

Jay and the staff showcased exceptional service, enhancing our overall experience. Cheers to a memorable night of delicious cocktails and outstanding hospitality!”

“Sunday errand day! And so while traveling south on kasold we decided to try 23rd street brewery for the 1st time. Bellied up to the bar and whoa! Lots of craft beer choices! I had Wave the wheat and hubby had watermelon ale. Both were delicious and icy cold. Note: the bartender graciously gave us samples (!). We both ordered the classic Flatbread which comes out as a pie shape and NOT a rectangle! Just the right amount of toppings that meld together in harmony! The ambience is lovely as you can talk to each other without yelling to be heard. The women's bathroom is large and very clean. All in all, definitely a 5 star place and as hubby said, "we've found a place that rivals Mr. Brews ". Yes we have and we will absolutely be back. We also bought 2 cans to take home and on Mondays they're 2 for 10.00. WOOT! AND...we're back! Stopped by after a Menards trip. We both had salads. I had NO IDEA the salad I ordered (avocado greens) was going to be able to fee my entire family! Jeeminy! Look at the size of this salad? And the toppings were also huge portions! I bet they used 2 avocados! Just delicious and fresh! Hubby had a side salad and fries (the usual). I had a polly olly beer which was crisp, light and a little happy. Hubby had a bitter professor which he proclaimed delicious! Our new watering hole! We're the ones that sit at the bar. Very clean restaurant and bartenders wipe down surfaces with Microban which is huge thumbs up! We stopped by today and WOW! the place has been transformed into a snow globe. It's absolutely beautiful! We sat at the bar and our favorite bartender, Kelly, was on staff! YAY! The menu has changed but still offers mouthwatering delights! I ordered the Angus burger (medium rare) with fries. Hubby had thr chicken tenders with fries. So, even though the menu has changed, the portions have not. First, my burger was perfection! So many places shy away from a medium rare anything. Not here. Just cooked brilliantly. The burger is huge-like the size of a saucer and thr amount of fries is wickedly huge. No different for hubby's plate too. We have food for the next 2 days-no lie. I enjoyed a "wave the wheat" beer and hubby had a beer to whose name I disremember. It was delicious. Both were served frosty cold. I love the fact we have CLOTH napkins at the bar. So elegant! Kelly was attentive, efficient and friendly. If you have an opportunity to visit this place during the holidays, you should! The atmosphere is an incredible experience with the multitude of lights and decorations. Don't miss it! Hubby and I met bff and her hubby here to experience the snow globe as they had never been. We were seated in a booth and quite frankly, the booth seat was in very sad shape. The tear was at least1 foot long and 6 inches wide. I'm unsure why it couldn't be repaired? Really tacky. Our server was lovely and as there was a party going on, drinks and food were slow. Drinks arrived 20 minutes after ordering and food 30 minutes later. So let's chat about the food. I'm guessing the chef has been replaced because this time the food was pretty bad. I ordered fish and chips (see photo). Bff took one look and said, "it looks like it was pulled out of the Kaw, cut the head off, and fried!" She's wasn't wrong. It just looked gross and it was way overfried and very, very bland. Hubby's chicken salad, same thing: overfried and tough. Bff ate 1/4 of her meal grimacing the whole time. Her hubby's burger was overcooked and looked like a piece of leather. Again, not sure what's going on but somethings changed and it ain't pretty OR tasty. I'm bringing my kids here to see the snow globe BUT we'll have a beer and move on to another food venue. I hope this restaurant returns to its former glory. Fingers crossed!”

“We used to frequent Bull Creek all the time but between having a baby and the pandemic we hadn't been back in years. We were so impressed I'm upset we have been missing out all this time! We went early on Sunday right after they opened for brunch. I was so happy to learn that they offer lunch options even during breakfast! We started with the bull creek balls then order the club and Tot-Chos with pulled pork. It was so much food we had a ton of leftovers! We did their mix and match breakfast drinks, you have get up to five bloody marys, mimosa or spiked coffee for 19 dollars. I did not take a picture of the spiked coffee but we loved the bloody mary's and the spiked coffees! There was only one bartender and one server when we were there and they were super busy but never slacked in their service! 10/10 experience! Great job, Bull Creek, we will be back!”

“Cheap beers and alcohol. Evening offers are good to go on specific days with friends. Drinks are badly made, but it's really good for digestive alcohol. Never try mojito, more than half a glass is made of white sugar”

“Atmosphere is on point, music was awesome the security guards look like men in black which was sort of cool and they were super nice 😎. Things that need to be improved, the bathroom door is right on the dance floor so add a spring so it shuts automatically. Not sure why they added chairs and a couch on the dance floor but for me it needs to go. Probably the most important is the drinks and here is where it becomes hit and miss. The drink appearance and presentation is great 5 stars but the quality of the drink 🍹 some good and some not good. When you’re paying $16-$20 for a drink like the one I had there is no room for error and mine just wasn’t good. I will be back because it’s a nice place and enjoyable and I have to mention they have expanded there bar/club and have added a comedy room next door which you access from the back of the bar. You can walk back and forth with your drinks and I have to say it was a nice addition. The comedian was pretty good had good energy and I love the racial aspects of his jokes 😄. He cracked on me so be careful if your standing out you will be next!”
