huey's southhaven

living the thug life.... i have eaten at this location many times. the food is always really good. it was good again on my most recent visit, but wow, were the employees and patrons are rough.

in a booth near me sat a drunk/loud/obnoxious guy. he and his date sat and drank and he got louder and louder. i don't mind colorful language, but this guy was cursing like a teamster. he would occasionally pace around. yet, nobody from huey's told him to sit down and shut up.

the wait staff wasn't what i would call friendly and it seemed that some off the clock employees were drinking at thebar(although i may be wrong on this, it is what i perceived). not impressed with the service. usually it is much better.

what's going on?

terrible service burgers just ok. my wife and i decided to go here and grab a burger one day. we walked in and there was hardly any one in the place. maybe 2 guys at thebarand a family that just finished and left. it was early around 4:30 on a thursday afternoon.
we sat down and must have waited 10 minutes before we even saw any of the wait staff but no one came to our table. another 5 minutes goes by and 3 girls come out of the kitchen and start flirting with the guys at the bar. i told my wife that one of them is bound to come our way, but no, all 3 went back to the kitchen. a few minutes later another waitress came from the kitchen area and actually looked me straight in the eyes and on to the guy at the bar. i told my wife 5 more minutes and we're gone. so the 5 minutes came, we got up and left. i will never in my life set my foot in the place again and i really don't agree on them having the best burger. i mean really, i counted 6 waitresses and we were never asked if we wanted any drinks or anything.
if i have to flag someone down for a drink order, i don't think they need my business. it would have been different if they had been busy but the place was dead.

a recent review for different item. i have always loved huey's. they have a great burger and the chicken tenders with buffalo sauce are outstanding. i can always count on getting a good meal for my money or they will make it right. i consider them my reliable safe place to grab food anytime i want a good meal and friendly service. i am reviewing my second favorite order from them. i love spicy food and although it hurts me i always get the chicken tenders rolled in buffalo sauce. i also like the homemade soup or soup of the day. its always a great add if your extra hungry. i was this night!

i would give the chicken tender meal on this night a solid (b+) the young lady behind thebarwas great for an (a) and the cleanliness/atmosphere was very loud because it was karaoke night (b). this earns them a solid (b+) once again for an overall in my book. its a fun place for everyone and my kids always love to come here.

thanks, frontrunner

great food. i love to go here on bike night. they have a great burger and the chicken tenders with buffalo sauce are outstanding. they have a fun atmosphere with music playing and an open bar. if you can shoot a tooth pick into the ceiling while you are there.....lol

to sum it up i would give them a (b+) in food. the service was great for a (b+) and the cleanliness was about a (b+). this earns them a solid (b+) overall in my book. the food and choices were really good for the price! its a fun place for everyone.
