Came in to Stillwell‘s for a bite and a couple of cocktails before our comedy show event and really enjoyed ourselves. Great history on the fountain that’s at the front entrance. It’s actually a well. That’s how it got its name stillwells. Really beautiful decor and super super cozy. Nice arcade room before you enter a portion of the restaurant with a lot of games in it. Nice big TVs and a beautiful fireplace. Very nice outdoor patio by the water with heat lamps and a big box playing music. Lovely atmosphere! I had a skinny margarita which was made to perfection. Made my mouth pucker just like I like it! Ashley was our server and at the beginning seemed very blah and never cracked a single smile or had much personality, but she did a full 360 halfway through our visit and was much friendlier and engaging. He had the fish wings, which were actually very very tasty. Nice and moist on the inside not too much breading and the tartar sauce was perfect. We had never heard of fish wings so thought he’d give it a try and we were pleasantly surprised at the flavor. I ordered the sticky shrimp cocktail, which was Delicious! Wonderful presentation! Looks like something out of a sci-fi lol. The sweet sauce was very tasty and the shrimp was cooked perfectly. Could’ve used a little less batter, but otherwise awesome. The downside was the price of my margaritas. $20 bucks a pop! I would’ve only ordered one had I known that. Decent prices on other items though. Otherwise a beautiful place and I recommend.

I was really looking forward to this place,Everytime I came to Big Bear it has been packed. Didn't look busy so gave it a try. Order filet, had a funny taste and a rotten smell to it. Sent it back and they took it off my order. By that point I did not and could not eat anything else. Order a root beer and when it came for a refill I was told the soda machine is broken. Got a lemonade and that was incredibly good!! The service was good seemed like 3 people were working, they were doing their best and in great spirit. They had a guy singing with his own cheer squad. For my taste to loud, he had his echo at a 9 when it should have been a 3. The little speakers he had were amped to the fullest so when he hit a high note it cracked. He kept asking for requests of songs and didn't now sing one of them. If I was hard of hearing and tone deaf it might have been good.

I was very impressed by the service I received. Ashley is an amazing bartender who is very passionate about her job and excels at creating a relaxing experience for customers. I tried a variety of drinks that instantly transported me to a tropical paradise. Today was the grand opening of the Tiki Tuesdays and Thursdays event and it was everything!

We came on an event weekend of the Fun Run car show while it was going on and the drink I got from the bar was perfect along with the service and music that was playing. They weren’t doing full on dinner so I can’t say anything about that but by the taste and how our appetizers were most likely speaks for everything. They weren’t making dinner until 5pm but were able to make appetizers for my husband and I which were very delicious!! I had the jalapeño poppers and let me just say the texture of the outside and melt from the cheese inside was amazing!! They are dog friendly which was a BIG PLUS since we had our pug with us. We will definitely come back and recommend! There’s no pictures to show for the appetizers besides the empty plates because I didn’t think I was going to leave a review but this definitely needed one! Rain working the bar along with serving us is super friendly and had a great attitude! :)
