“Very cool place. The only thing is the server adjustment that they put on the bill for 4% which is completely asinine. You charge $19 for a drink, and you have the audacity to charge me 4% extra for a server adjustment. How’s this, the server adjustment is your tip.“

“Sunnys just opened in September in 2023 and they are owned by Barter and Shake, the same owners as the renowned upscale themed bars at Century Grand. That means the drinks at Sunny's are AMAZING but at more affordable prices and for walk-in customers. They have done a lot with a small space to create a bar experience that feels like a well-kept secret, but this location needs to get more attention!!! Megan our bartender was so sweet, you can tell she loves her job and we felt like family. They offer an extensive list of craft cocktails but will also make you a vodka redbull or toss you a beer if that is what you are looking for. No food yet, but they are working to partner with some food trucks as they continue building the business.“

“First I'd like to point out the food is fantastic, but my service was very off-putting. I came in town to visit friends and we decided to come to Richardson's because we love the food. My friend and I were seated, we ordered our food, and had some water while we waited. Close to 20min or so after, my friend asked our waiter Trey if we could get an estimated time on our food. Trey seemed annoyed and responded "I put the order in ladies, I don't know what else you want me to do"...wait, what?! We were clearly upset at his response because it was rude and uncalled for. I'm not sure if he sensed the vibe afterwards but he shortly came back with an estimated time which should have been his first response. He barely checked on us while making sure to stay on top of his other tables. That was very upsetting to me considering I flew in from another state, and it's tradition for my friend and I to eat here when I come in town. This experience has made me reconsider where our new traditional spot will be.“

Alyssa (sp?) came right to our table and gave us a full rundown on the drinks and helped w/recommendations. The drinks were fantastic, interesting blend of flavors and textures. We will be back!

War Pig: the Angostura bitters were a bit heavy. Husband didn't like, I thought it was OK, 5.5/10

More than a Feeling: I asked the bartender about this one, because I don't really care for Gin, but it is fantastic, 9/10“

“Nana had the kids, so we stepped out for an after work cocktail date night. Twenty6 lounge is the bar in the lower lobby of @jwdesertridge and is a casual spot for resort guests, or a couple on a mini date night.

We each enjoyed a couple of drinks while chatting about life. Sitting at the bar was quick service and quiet, but you can also relax in a plush patio chair out in the courtyard. Next time, we will plan better and be sure to play some arcade games in the new space before it closes at 9!“

But I gave it 5 stars for all the other categories. Great place for a friendly game of pool, and the bartender was absolutely amazing and very attentive. Best bartender I've ever had!!“
