Came in late for food. Kept kitchen open for us. Food was great. Friendly staff

I really wanted to like this place, but my experience was deeply disappointing. As soon as my group of four walked in, we were met with cold stares and not a single greeting. No one offered us a seat or menus—we had to walk up to the register and ask for help, even though the restaurant wasn’t busy (only four tables occupied).

After we were finally seated, another group came in—different race than us—and the staff immediately welcomed them, handed them menus, and seated them without hesitation. The difference in treatment was too obvious to ignore.

If you don’t look like their “typical” customer, be prepared to feel unwelcome. I hope the management reflects on this and takes steps to ensure all guests are treated with respect and hospitality.

Visiting on a Thursday night and we got there right before it started filling up. When we ordered I wish the guy taking our order would have informed us about the happy hour deals, as some of the items we ordered were similar to those on happy hour and we could have saved a few bucks.

We loved the chips and salsa bar that was open to everyone.

I’m not sure if it’s like this every Thursday but get there early, since later in the night this place turns into a packed club.

It was nice to be back after a few years, but it was still a good experience. The food and drinks were awesome, and the service was excellent. Recommended for a quick bite or a cold drink this summer.

You're looking at Sharkey's "World Famous" Fish Tacos. I ordered one of each, Note: I added Chalua Hot Sauce to the right one, before taking this picture but, THIS is what you now get for $6.49 & $6.75 each. The piece of fish they now serve you is smaller than ever & over breaded. The presentation of their famous taco has gone down as well. Just look at the pictures of the reviews from two or three years ago. The tortillas were hard because they were over cooked which adding to my disappointment of the over all experience I shared with my nephew who's visiting from out of state. I'm hoping they go back to making them worth ordering, because you'll be disappointed as we were if they continue serve these while charging over $6.49 each.

I’m here actually and I just ordered a few drinks . Not knowing what they have here I asked for a shot of Hennessy. There’s an Asian looking older gentleman at the bar . He told me “we don’t serve cognac , this isn’t that kind of place here “. To let you guys know I am Puertorican . so he clearly was being a racist because I’m ethnic . Please tell her to watch his mouth that was super weird and rude ! Gross ?

This was our first time here and it was a packed house. We went on a Sunday and they had every Sunday sport playing and every fan watching. The food and drinks were great! Overall, the atmosphere was fun and a great place to hang on GameDay.
