Ok so our team Member went there for a band as we are a media service it's what we do, well the night we went he was having free food, nice touch. In the process of about 20 minutes our Head team Member watch the bartender give away free drinks 1. 2 vj then pulled our owner in the kitchen basically said that our team was not welcome unless we buy something hint there is he was basically getting free advertising. Next the intoxicated guests were treating to fight us saying we had not authority to film the band, ummm we are 100% allowed to film the bands it was the reason we were there as all but one of our members were wearing a press tag mind you he is new Member all we are saying is pick and choose be careful and make sure if you plan to take photos of your group make sure you have some witness everything, also VJ is not a professional DJ but tries to not to mention promoting an event not doing it and wonder why 2 people show up

We stopped in last night to get some food. We used to love coming here for some great food and amazing people but last night was one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had. The staff was slow and seemed confused that we didn’t want alcohol. The food we did order was overcooked to the point of almost being burnt. The sour cream that came with it tasted like it was spoiled. One of the bartenders was extremely rude, racist and was so disrespectful to my boyfriend. She didn’t want to wait on us and ignored us most of the night. She kept saying she was going to “kick his a*** for things he wasn’t even a part of. The owner also thought it was a good idea to turn his DJ equipment on and play music that was way too loud. We weren’t the only ones complaining about it. And if after reading this you still decide to go make sure you sit at the bar. If you sit at a table expect to be ignored and wait on yourself. The bartenders only come out from behind the bar if they absolutely have to. Instead try going to Hillside, Eagles club, Northside or make the 10 minute trip to the Depot in Hopkinton IA

The music, bartenders, owner, the drinkers, etc. are all horrible. This bar hasn’t been the same since the previous owner sold it to VJ. I wouldn’t recommend this bar for anyone. I hope they realize they won’t ever have positive comments about this place either.I’ve seen several kids, SEVERAL years younger than me go to this bar or even next door, The Liquor store he also owns, get alcohol and vape products.GO TO ANOTHER BAR:-Monticello Eagles Club-Hillside Bar & Grill-Northside

Nice clean wholesome bar good food waiters the bartender ain't none of racist they keep the nonsense down they play good music and good drinks served hella good food I like it I will go back if I had the chance
The new owner VJ was very rude to my boss and to us tonight tired to argue with us and all we wanted was to play pool and get food and listen to music but the owner turned up the music so loud and he was trying to be a dj but it sounded so bad that us and another group of people left. Definitely would not recommend going here. Rather go the the north side that whiskey river He definitely won’t get our business ever again 0-10

Terrible service the owner after u put 10 dollars in the juke box decided he wanted to be a d.j. and shut off my music because he didn't like it and offered to buy me a 3 dollar beer. Never will I go back

Had a great time. Service was great. I felt for the bartender as she was solo and the crowd kept growing! Drinks made great. Alot better than previous owners... had a dj that only payed country, which was a little bummer that he wouldn't mix it up just a little. Location has been updated and cleaned. Very comfortable evening
We didn't eat there but, we had a blast there!
