The food was very good and our server was excellent. The downside was how loud it was in there. Too loud to converse at our table. Maybe that’s just part of the fun there for most who go.

I highly recommend getting the Perkansville Pork as an appetizer. Yes it is offered as a full dish, but once you try it you will always want it when you come back. If you get it as an appetizer you can have some and then explore the some other fantastic thing from the menu. My husband had the NY Strip. It was cooked to perfection and unbelievably delicious. I had the mushrooms with goat cheese they were so delicious I will always have to order these too. It was fun. This is our second time going. Last year for our 30th anniversary celebration and last Saturday for our 31st. Great place very casual and the cost for quality is very reasonable. PERFECTION ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 👍🤩

How does this place work? Old building in an old town, middle of no where, but yet, even arriving at 8:00 for our hard to get reservation, the place is packed, and more people arrive to pack the place that late in the evening. Great service (TY John), great food. Glad we went. Next time we tailgate!

We, once again, truly enjoyed our anniversary dinner at Bonges. Perkinsville pork was GREAT as usual and my wife tried a new chicken dish, also GREAT. The personalized anniversary menu was also much appreciated and a nice touch. We'll see you again to celebrate upcoming birthdays as well as our next anniversary ... and and occasional 'treat' for our out-of-town friends when they visit. Bonges has always been, and continues to be, out GO-TO special occasion restaurant.

Awesome atmosphere, good food and great times! Order the duck and forget the steaks. Always order the shrimp and mushroom appetizers. Cream cake doesn't sound that great for a desert, but it is truly impressive. I have traveled in from Oklahoma at least a dozen times in the past 3 years.
