went to free music event and the owner, older man, was super weird and creepy to me and my friends. security did nothing and stood behind us the whole night, trying to intimidate us? we left shortly after, vibes were so off and service was not good.
Ty.... what a man. This place seriously benefits from his presence. Grab one of those strawberry condensed milk drinks - he makes them with love and passion.
The Caesar salad was quite delicious.
Pacificos were fresh and Mexican.
Everyone had big smiles and warm hearts.
The DJ played some Brazilian phonk which set the vibe for their devastation loss to Norway.
But let's focus on Ty. Seriously he has made our four hours stay a real beauty. We couldn't have done it without him. Nursing a hangover, eating some slaggy food, and drinking beer was all enhanced by hanging out with Ty.

Great little bar with delicious food. We sat outside with the heaters and it was great. Food reasonably priced and portions were big. Very tasty! Golden State cider strong but tasty. I’ve heard great things about the music life here but we just came for food. Really great little place!

We were here for four hours and they were happy to take our money and then not let my husband back in because he was wearing flip flops because they “had shift change”? We literally were here to watch the World Cup. Definitely not worth spending your time or money. Overpriced and overhyped. They also let a girl in wearing sandals right after. Like make it make sense. I literally work locally here and will not be suggesting this place to anyone. I’m just so taken aback by this. The bouncer wouldn’t even let him in to close the tab. Just really discouraging and upsetting because we were having such a good time and have recommended this place.

Had a great time here for the Monday Jeopardy night. Our bartender Scott rocked my world with hilarious jokes and great service. Would be 4 stars without the mustache and apron.

Required 10 dollar cover charge (which was to support the recovery of one of their staff). Spacious place with a variety of pool tables and other activities.
Security and bouncers were rude and unprofessional. My group was here for less than 20 minutes and we all had a bad experience.
I REALLY wanted to love the place. It was a busy afternoon,but it was clear regulars get the good service. And the menu was a super challenge for food allergies. And while I completely understand that an onion allergy is difficult, we couldnt even get a steamed artichoke without onion... we ended up not being able to eat anything and left after a couple cocktails. The drinks were good, the prices were moderate (but recognize the location is a premium). Definitely a fun locals bar, but not willing to accommodate for food allergies.
Got takeout, ordered some buffalo wings and ate them at Otter Point. Totally recommend the wings, they have a very strong buffalo flavor.
