"My wife and I were feeling hungry and thirsty after watching a boys basketball game at Geneva High School, where they had a great win that night. We asked one of the teachers for restaurant recommendations nearby, and she enthusiastically praised OTP, highlighting its food, atmosphere, and especially the must-try onion rings. She really sold us on the place, but I’m getting ahead of myself. The directions she gave us were spot on, and when we arrived, it was a quiet evening. We ordered a beer and a mixed drink; my Stella was refreshing and flavorful. My wife enjoyed her mixed drink too, which had the perfect balance of Tito's vodka and cranberry juice—not too strong but just right. She loved it so much that she ordered a second one, which she declared outstanding. For dinner, I chose the wings while my wife ordered the OTP burger with a side of onion rings. She really enjoyed the burger, saying it was cooked to her liking and juicy, with a delightful blend of flavors and crunch. As for my chicken wings, they were absolutely amazing—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly moist without being greasy or over-fried. I loved being able to mix and match the seasonings; the spicy BBQ, hot BBQ, and plain BBQ were all excellent. The onion rings exceeded our expectations—fresh with a perfect amount of delicious beer batter. They were simply irresistible! The restaurant has a warm, friendly vibe reminiscent of a Cheers bar, and it’s definitely our go-to spot for our next visit to the area. Overall, this place is EXCELLENT! Parking: Easy parking available on Main Street. Kid-friendliness: Offers kid-friendly meal options."

"We were hungry and were looking for a place nearby. We used to eat there, but I didn't make any reviews at the time and couldn't remember if we liked them. When we moved in at 8ish on a Saturday night and the parking lot was not very full, it seemed like a strike against them. We went in and sat fast. On the way to the table, however, I could see two cabins with large sections of the seating panel and the wooden tables had seen better days. Strike two. We sat at a stand with a tear in the size of a frisbee. No lie! Strike three was the menu that was worn and so sticky that the pages were glued together. This is a pet of mine. I can't sticky, grimy menus!!! I mean, come to people I touch my menu and then maybe touch my food. GROSS! If I wasn't so slow, (yes, not hungry, hungry) that could have been the time when I came out. Unfortunately we stayed.... Service was okay, but not the greatest we ever had. The waitress came around several times, but disappeared during the lunchtime. The saving grace is that the food was really good. Hubby had buffalo chicken wrap and subbed out fries for a salad with bleu cheese. Dressing was good and he likes his Bleu cheese. Salad was good with fresh ingredients and delicious grapes. Wrap was a decent size with some heat and good taste and decent chicken, but well proportional to salad, and tomatoes. Ranch Dressing on the packaging. He also had an IPA that was on special sale. I had the fish and chips and underbed regular frits for Parmesan garlic frying. The pommes were really good with lots of parmesan and not with an overwhelming garlic taste. The fish had a crispy, slightly fritted cover on it, which when you in it a little discovered the damp, large pieces of white fish. The fish had a good taste and no fishy taste like some. There were three hooded fish. More than enough. And a bunch of pommes. There was also lemon, malt vinegar and a delicious tartaric acid sauce that was delicious. I would definitely go back there because the food was so good, but next time I find out what I want before time so I don't have to touch their menus."
