The Monte Cristo is amazing. But not as much as the Top Gun restroom!

This was my first time here, let's just say I got spicy pretzels, secret sauce, a good time and good laughs! Tianna was really the funniest girl, I will definitely be back!

the lady at the bar was more interested in entering tips at 11:47 than being a bartender.

My daughter and her family took us to Dam Pub this evening. I wasn't expecting much but I was so wrong! What a fantastic place for drinks and a great meal! The adult beverages were tasty and terrific! Everyone had pizza except me as the cold weather prompted me to try the chicken and noodles. The appetizer was fried portobello mushrooms with a parmesan dipping sauce! Unreal! This was the first time visit for us but it will not be last! 80's theme to the music and decor! We loved it!Parking: You need to park across the street in the strip mall parking lot. We easily found a close spot.

This is a really cool place! Beautiful retro atmosphere. The use of space is wonderfully thoughtful allowing a bar atmosphere in one area with stairs leading to a rooftop patio, and a restaurant space with tables and booths in another area. I haven't been up to the rooftop yet, but from the street it looks like a lot of fun. I can't wait to try it out in the summer. The restaurant space is pleasant with eighties and nineties retro murals and decor. For a Gen-x this is awesome! There are TV's playing music videos and when I was there last, one TV was playing Dirty Dancing. There is another area, I think, that I haven't had the opportunity to see yet. The menu is loaded with interesting takes on pub/diner food. Google it. I have eaten here twice, so I haven't gotten too far into the menu. I didn't care too much for the burger that I had. The bun fell apart way too easily and the burger meat itself was just ho hum. However, I loved the greens and the sauce that was on it. I have also had the tenderloin which was a tenderloin. The toppings were fresh. There are so many interesting things on the menu that I want to keep coming back to try them. I also, want to come and enjoy the bar area and really get to know this place. I think that there is so much to do, eat, and drink here that you have to keep coming back and try something new. I really like the wait staff, our waitress was very attentive and experienced.
