Great food, the best burger around, but the worst customer service. The girls are super mean, and I’ve been there several times, just continue going for the food

Hometown bar with good smash burgers. Service is friendly and responsive when the occasional error occurs in an order.

Great time service lacked but I think it’s because of the distance needed to travel per server. Other than waiting a bit longer for a drink then wanted, great time!!

This place is similar to fast food joint. There are no servers. To get drinks for your table, either everyone goes to the bar, or you bring ID's for the amount of drinks you want to order. For food, you have to order through a Qcode from the table you are at. Wings and fries took over an hour. The outdoor band idea is nice though, but with no service, it's kind of a strange place.

EDIT: If this place ever returns servers to their staff where a person can order a drink without going to the bar without more than one ID, I would consider returning.

Great place. Lots of games, free Mario Kart for the kids(or adults). Large outdoor space. Live music. Chili fries were on point. They do have Non Alcoholic selection of beers. Will definitely come back.

Reviews were pretty high. Photos looked to have 6-8 pinball machines. Food looked decent and not a lot of complaints. Wanted to go hang out with my 10 yr old before an avalanche game, eat some food and play pinball games cause the Google photos showed a boat load, but when we got there it was not what the photos showed or we expected which was such a bummer. We got there and there were only 2 pinball games. They had several claw games, one my 10 yr old kept trying for a mystery card pack thing couple times that didn't even start and we had to ask for a dollar back, they had two large screen arcade games one hunter/zombie shooting game which turned on but didn't work, one golf game that I was like we are not even going to try, they had 2 driving mario cart sit down arcade games one broken and the other intermittent, we only were able to get 1 out of 3 games in. The bar tender said the sit down arcade game was hit or miss, then she had the audacity to get mad that we wanted a few bucks back even after we pumped about $35 in all the machines. They did have several tables that had Nintendo 64 with only Mario cart playing, I was like, but we came for the pinball machines. Last, we ordered food, mozzarella sticks with marinara and the marinara was 3/4 frozen, my 10yr old had a well well well done dried out cheeseburger that he only ate half (how do you screw up cooking a patty?), and the only good food was the fries. They need to get their photos and establishment descriptions updated and use a darn thermometer on the burgers to know when the burger is done cooking. Would NOT recommend this place at all.

Maya and Raquel make it themselves!
