“It's not bad but the service can be hit or miss. The good is decent don't get me wrong but it does not match the price when it comes to taste or portions.

It has some nice seating and it's an alright location. The seats are not comfy and I can't imagine coming here for lunch or dinner with friends.

The bathroom is clean which is nice to see. The sink had soap in stock another big plus. Single person bathroom so you get privacy.

Overall not bad 3/5“

He said he liked his job. This was obvious by the great service he provided. The food was excellent. I had the pot roast that melts in your mouth.

The menu has something for everyone—whether you’re into burgers, tacos, or vegan options, they’ve got you covered. The service is usually quick and friendly, even when it’s packed. The beer list is massive, which is awesome if you like trying new things. It can get loud and crowded during peak hours, but that’s part of the energetic vibe. Overall, it’s a great place to hang out with friends, catch a game, and enjoy a good meal.“

“I love the ol' neighborhood bar and grill, their prices are fair, the food is prepared the same way I would do it and that Bahama Mama..... you should see the looks I get when I go to another restaurant and will actually look up the recipe on the internet and have their bartender make some for me!!! The staff at the west Colfax spot are always efficient, friendly, and go the extra mile to please you. Thanks Makala!!

Well google wanted me to update my review and yeah it's probably time. The bartender there sucks now. I watched my waitress go to the server station put in my drink let ol boy know (he acknowledged her with a head nod) and then continued to carry on with a conversation he was having. Now I don't expect him hop, skip, and jump over to make my drink immediately but dude sat there and ran his mouth for a good 10-15 minutes before my waitress reminded him. He then did it again later as he was cleaning up the bar area and continued to clean after acknowledging a new drink order. I don't know why but homie wasn't on his game tonight. Everything else was great. Yall know how much I love the Neighborhood bar & grill!

The bartender (didn't get her name but she was originally from the pan handle) was is the perfect hostess. she recommended the roast beef sliders with Swiss. they were absolutely amazing with Au jus. my wife loved the potato skins this place is really fun looking and they had live music. but what really stood out was the staff. definitely will come back. Place was full of like-minded people having fun“

I moved in the day of the recent management shift, and while there was a few things that fell through the cracks, Gabe and the Equity team were very kind made sure I had what I needed for a smooth transition. They are always responsive when I have a question. My unit is exceptionally quiet! Neighbors are friendly, community amenities are exceptional (I regularly use the hot tub, grill, gym, dog-wash and co-working spaces), and love the walking trails behind the community. My apartment is functional, nice, and everything feels high quality. There is nothing seedy about this place. As a single woman, I feel safe and at-home, which is a wonderful feeling!“
