By far the rudest waitress ever. We walked in to have no greeting, sat outside on the bar for an afternoon drink, and we had come here because the first place we tried ended up being a bust. We figure we’d give this place a go. 10 minutes goes by and nobody comes to greet us, so I go and ask for a menu. I was plainly told “we don’t do that here”, and then I just asked for a soda instead. The machine ended up being flat and at this point it had taken another 15 minutes, and the staff was doing a great job at making us feel like we were a bother for bringing their establishment business.. We just said honestly don’t worry it’s fine; and we were making our way out the door. As my girlfriend and I were having conversation about how it was unfortunate we went 2/2 on striking out at bars, not even upset really but did notice the service wasn’t great, and in conversation my girlfriend was just simply shaking her head while she was talking. As we were walking away the woman barter yells to us “you’ll be alright lady keep crying”… and I just turned around and looked at the lady like she was crazy and said “you don’t even know what we were talking about…that’s really weird behavior miss” and we left. Honestly a really weird and unpleasant experience. I would avoid this place at ALL costs.

Great views, great concept, very poorly ran. If this place doesn't get a good manager it will not stay open. There is so much potential here but unfortunately, without the right staff, it will continue going downhill. Owner(s) if you are reading the reviews, pay attention to the negative ones. I hope this place turns around.

According to Google, they're open at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday. However, at 3:20 p.m., there was no way to access their business. Elevator would not go to the third floor, and all doors to their business were locked. Looking through the window in the emergency stairwell, there were no employees inside. Also, extremely hard to locate. Had to ask a neighboring business how to get to their location.

Don't be fooled. NO craft beer here. Bud, Dos XX, Models. No draft beer at all. Very disappointing.

I visited here on 5/25/25 and was overcharged on my card. I have tried numerous times to contact the establishment and spoke with them on Facebook about my refund but have yet not heard back on it. Great place but lacks communication when there is a matter that needs to be taken care of - this has happened to my friends in the past well so just be careful when you visit here and keep your receipts and take pictures so that this does not happen to you!

Refused to validate my parking, costing $25 extra on top of my bar tab. Would’ve been a nice experience but ended horribly with the parking situation.

Online Said they were open at 11:00PM but the bouncer said they were at capacity and counted 25 people come out and they did not let anyone else in for their “manager”. Don’t come here if you want a drink, there are many other better bars in the area that will serve people during their operating hours :)

I felt like it is way over- rated as the patio view is very limited. Bartender seemed to just go through the motions

Saw this near an event we attended and looked up info online. Said it was open (Sat night in March, around 8:30p) and website indicated it's an active business. Attempted to access and found elevator woudn't go up and upstairs doors had signs but were locked and place was dark. Why have a google listing and a website if you have no open business. Just seems lazy.

James (the red headed bartender with tattoos, and all of the terrible reviews here and also the owner) is the rudest person I have ever encountered. He clearly has some problems that make him super angry for literally zero reasons. He got my order wrong when I ordered super politely, so when I corrected him nicely just asking for the right beer, he took the wrong beer he poured and chucked it across the bar. It was extremely uncalled for. And I STILL TIPPED and was overcharged; he charged me 72 dollars for 3 beers. Later on he was pointing at my sober friend who was there for the encounter and she asked what the issue was. He told us “go back to tipsy crow where you belong” and made the bar backs come over to kick us out. He is an actual psycho. Not sure much will be done being he is the owner of this bar and also owns Coa Cantina and Bellhop, but just wanted to mention he clearly has a serious problem causing some unwarranted anger and might need some anger management classes. Do not recommend.
Owner of bar is bartending and misunderstood my girlfriend’s direction when ordering drinks. She corrected him and his reply was “you are 22, you guys should just go back to tipsy crow”. Would think ownership would have a little more pride than to handle a situation like that.
After reading more reviews, sounds like this guy can’t quite figure it out. Has multiple reviews with similar story lines. Might be time for him to find the door.

I went to this bar on Friday with my friends as it was my 30th birthday. We were not being belligerent and were only trying to have a good time. All of the drinks we ordered were super watered down, and the drinks are expensive! I went up to ask for a replacement, and the red headed general manager who has all the tattoos started yelling at me about how it’s going to be watered down because it’s 90 degrees outside. He threw the drink away super angry and I told him to forget it. My friend went up there to try to get the replacement after. He started screaming at her too, so my other friends and I walked up. He was full on screaming at us when no one was even being rude to him. This man needs to be fired. Sorry you hate women.

Decker the bartender was super knowledgeable and knew our drink orders before we asked. Decker was an amazing bartender! Give him a raise!
