Loosey's Downtown Gainesville

A Gainesville staple make sure you slide in on Wednesday burger night.

From groups of people playing trivia to excellent food, to music I didn't like, to watching hockey on TV, Loosey's was perfect.First there was a line of people outside waiting to order and get seats for the upcoming trivia game. I waited, though I did not play.Inside was a bar that was quite full, loud and very busy. It is a bar.Finally ordered my dinner, it is expensive at Loosey's, be ready to pay.I had the 14 oz Prime Rib Steak. IT WAS PRIME. Best damn steak I have eaten in many years.The fries that came with it were crunchy and delicious.I also ordered a Loosey Salad. It to was great.The servers were all very good and made sure everything was just perfect.Was the food, service and atmosphere worth the $40 price tag for one person?ABSOLUTELY!!!!!I very highly recommend Loosey's.

The chicken tortilla soup tasted like saly tomato water with chili seasoning. It literally burned my mouth from salt. I would probably be less irritated by this but I'm sick and I just wanted some damn soup

We came on a Sunday. Based on the reviews we were super excited, all homemade food, limited options so must be fresh. but it is very very small for such a busy place. We were warned it will be a minuet because it's so busy... we were not told it would take 30 mins to get asked for drinks and another 20 minuets to just get our drinks. Another half hours for appetizer, kalbi burnt ends. I won't go again, the kalbi brisket ends were very very dry and the cucumber salad was so salty it made me gag.. I am not joking either. I love korean food, lived there 3 years and that was way to salty, they did the fast way kimchi and over did the salt. We left and went somewhere else.. waitress was very nice though!!

Burgers are always so good and I use to go a lot more. Some of the bartenders are a little rough and could be a bit more friendly.
