This isn't your average review, but rather more of a comparison. Almost everyone writing these reviews are comparing their experience to the original Slyman's downtown. I just got done eating my sandwich. I arrived at the tavern about 10 minutes before opening and there were already about 25 people in line. It just opened a few days ago, so I was expecting this. The employees were organized and were able to accommodate the immediate rush of patrons quickly.
It took about 15 minutes for me to get my food and I took it back to work (right around the corner). The sandwiches are slightly smaller than the downtown location. Prices are the same (about $15 for corned beef reuben).
The flavor was good, but not as good as downtown. This might be caused from the new equipment being used in the kitchen. I think people who are giving bad reviews are being rather critical. The food is great and they have a huge selection of BEER, which is always a winner in my book. Welcome to Independence Slyman's Tavern !!
