    Another brunch before a Gopher football game. Once again, a terrific meal. Bloody Mary, one with vodka, one with gin, with just the right amount of spicy tomato mix. I had the eggs Benedict with short ribs and a generous amount of hash browns; my friend had a traditional breakfast with breakfast potatoes and Nueske bacon. Requested bar seats in order to watch the IU/OSU game and the Manny’s host delivered. Met a group of PSU fans who enjoyed pre game cocktails in the main dining room. worth the $$$$.

    We had a wonderful dining experience at Bacio. The waiter was the key to a very enjoyable evening. Even though the noise level was high, we had a great table for conversation.

    Our server was attentive and helpful. At first, we were assigned a booth by the door which was too loud. A manager moved us to a nice quiet booth where we could actually have a conversation. The food was excellent and the price was good for the value. Suggestion: add a good Mexican beer like Dos XX.

    Shannon was our server tonight and she was great as usual. My wife had pot stickers and they were very good. I had comfort food, a hot turkey commercial and that was very good. We’ve been dining at Scoreboard for over 27 years and we keep going back. The seasonal decorations are awesome!
