    Had a disappointing experience the other night. Went to Pointers when they first opened and really enjoyed it! Went back on a Wednesday night and think it was for the last time, which is a shame. Walked into an empty restaurant at 8:30 with just 5 others at the bar who had apparently just walked in as well and the bartender could be heard complaining "where did everyone come from...guess we won't get to close early..." Sorry. Finished my 1st drink almost as soon as I got it and was never offered a refill because the bartender was so engrossed in a conversation with a patron. My glass sat empty from the time I ordered until midway through my meal when I finally just stopped eating to wait for a refill because I was so thirsty. It was impossible to get her attention due to her deep, ongoing conversation. After waving at her twice, got my refill. Never quite had this happen at a bar before. Ordered a simple grilled chicken sandwich which was dry and tough and hard to even bite. One end of the meat was more than an inch thick while the other was paper thin. Maybe if the chicken had been pounded to a uniform thickness to cook more evenly it wouldn't have been so dry and tough. I wouldn't order it again. The macaroni and cheese was nothing special, it wasn't fresh as evidenced by the darker, discolored noodles in some spots and overall it tasted like the deluxe version of Kraft, not homemade. A very disappointing way to spend $40 on dinner and drinks for two people. The only reason I'm giving it two stars instead of 1 is because my husbands black and blue burger and cheddar soup were very good, he said.

    Easily one of the best restaurants in Marengo. Highly recommended. Reuben egg rolls competes with the Mac Daddy (Pulled pork with Mac n Cheese on top) for best on the menu. Medium prices for Marengo, but quality can't be competed with as long as they keep this menu/chef. Highly recommended.

    I liked the location and the decor. Good variety on the menu but the food is a little pricey. The fries were really good but the pulled pork was a little dry. I do like the pretzel rolls the sandwiches are served on. I wasn't impressed with the staff. Hostess seemed disinterested and the waitress rushed us through our meal bringing by a box while I was still working on finishing the other half of my sandwich. Liked this place well enough to go back. Hoping for a better experience with the staff next time around.

    My boyfriend and I went here last night for the first time. We were on our way back from Rockford, were hungry, and this looked like a good place to stop. Boy, are we glad we did! The service was great and the food was delicious! The manager that night - George, I believe his name was - even gave us a little coin for a free drink. I also liked the atmosphere of this place - very upbeat - and the way the inside was decorated. I highly recommend. We will be back!

    Hopefully they have a better system for people who call ahead and reserve a table. Called and when the group got there was told no one wrote down the information. Had to wait for the table to be set up.

    This place is the new kid on the block and made a great impression on my taste buds. We planned on meeting some out of town friends there for dinner on a Saturday night so i called to see if they took reservations which they did and I am glad because there was a waiting line for tables that night. We were seated right away without delay. The tables were not mashed together as they are in some restaurants so there was room to move around and not bump the person behind you. While we visited and looked over the menu there was never a rushed feeling. We did order drinks while we chatted. The server checked in every so often to see if we were ready. When it did come time to order the process went well and I was delighted to hear or server has tried most all the food on the menu and could recommend ordering or not. I ordered the Mile High Meatloaf that night and was in food heaven. The quantity was large enough for a gowning teenager to finish but I ended up taking 1/2 of it home. Since then I have been there 2 more times and have enjoyed there appetizers and burgers. Yes I wiil be back. Keep up the good work.

    Niko's Pointers Saloon a bit of a disappointment. My family frequents the Red Mill in Woodstock and LOVES it, which is the same owner . We live in Marengo so I was seriously waiting for this place to open. We went the first week it was open to eat and the food was pretty good much like the Red Mill as the menu is almost identical minus the pizza. They were crowded and all the people seemed to be really upbeat. So the second time we went the atmosphere was totally different. Much less positive and more like they we not so pleased to serve you. I figured it was an off night and the following week we at Red Mill instead, which was good as usual. 3 days later we went to Pointers for the 3rd and probably final time which was New Years Day. The place was pretty empty and the staff was not really welcoming, as we ate the staff almost hovered over us waiting to take the plates away. 2 times during our meal some one tried to take a plate we were eating off of, like fork in hand, eating off of. It is such a bummer to me because we need a great restaurant in Marengo. I hope the owner takes this review to heart, because I want this place to be as great as the Red Mill almost as much as he should. I love the Red Mill and want to love Pointers, it just is not the same quality or upbeat staff. As of right now I really would not recommend it, especially when you can go to Woodstock and be guaranteed a great experience.
