Tasha is amazing!!!! Great to have a bar do an LGBTQ night; just wish it was done on a busier night; doing it on a slow Wednesday night kinda screams how can we make money when it's dead~ let's see if the gays will gives us there money. But nonetheless they have it and promote it so much better then the other bars in the area.

I come here almost every Sunday for karaoke. For the most part I have a great time with my friends. But i have to send other people to even get service. If you dont make a habit of tipping $60 or more to the bartender (no matter what the tab is) she will not serve you or if she doesnt know you personally. She will acknowledge everyone around you, but you.But the problem is that most of the bartenders make a habit of over serving people. I would like to speak to the owner about this because it's getting to the point where legal action is needed. It's getting people hurt. There's an obligation to cut people off for a reason. They need to hold their bartenders accountable or someone is going to end up suing them and making them accountable.

Most of the bartenders have bad attitudes. It was only one bartender that was wonderful with doing her job. The other two ladies would stand around instead of waiting on people at the bar. They would stand back next to the drink wall talking with each other and at this point of time the bar was full. The two ladies acted as if they were not suppose to be making drinks. It's sad that some employees will make a business run bad. The security guards are wonderful. I would rather order a drink from them. The scenery of the bar is wonderful, although a better Dj is needed. I will not be going back anytime soon. I will give it a few months and hopefully there will be some joyful bartenders. My tip is: leave your attitudes outside the door before walking in to work.

Finally able to check it out!! Drinks were good, food was amazing!! Had California wrap with fries (fries were OUTSTANDING - seriously, I was so full but couldn’t stop eating them. Battered with chunks of sea salt) and birria barbacoa tacos with chips and salsa. Will definitely make this a regular stop when we are in the area.

Not crowded and drinks were a little pricey and not very strong. Bartender was cool but really wasn't very host like vibe. More just didn't care if you like them or not. Wasn't my favorite.

It's always a great time here! Attentive bartenders, decent prices, good vibe & atmosphere. The music is amazing on the weekends, the DJ's actually take requests. Open till 3am Friday and Saturday nights. Bouncers are NOT cocky a-holes on a power trip. Love this place.
