We went to see Afroman and got a VIP table. Our burgers were great, the performance was dope, but its seems like they made the bartender also wait the VIP tables which resulted in essentially not getting service after our food was served. Not the servers fault, but it seems like they are understaffed for the services they are charging for. Its not reasonable to expect one woman to serve all the VIP tables and also the bar especially when its during the main act. The website stated we would also have our own server which is not true. Overall, I would go back but probably wont spend extra money for a table with service when we arent guaranteed a server.

Sad cause it’s a nice spot. But whoever they have at the door, I’ll just say could’ve been better. Came to hear the dj they had. There was a $10 cover. Upon entry I noticed two guests that arrived as I did, enter prior to me without paying. After I presented my ID and was told the cover charge I expressed what I noticed and proceeded to pull out my debit card since I had no cash. I was then yelled at by the lady at the entrance for no reason. As I had my card out for payment expressing calmly that I need to go to the atm for payment I was kicked out for no apparent reason. When asked to speak to a manager I was told that I was kicked out for being rude and not wanting to pay which both are untrue. Stupid experience but it happens.

bouncer lectured and bullied me for having a vertical ID. i have a valid florida drivers license that doesn’t expire until dec 2027, and in the state of FL you aren’t able to renew it before a year and a half of the expiration date. the female blonde bouncer with short hair looked at my ID and saw that im 22 years old and said she isn’t supposed to accept entry on any vertical ID’s and i explained to her that i know maryland licenses expire when someone turns 21 but i have a valid florida license. i was told “as a one time courtesy” id be let in but i need to get my license changed to come back… i literally cant unless i replace it for being “lost” and even so that wouldn’t change the expiration date so id still end up paying for a license renewal in 2027. i understand this area doesn’t have many tourists or people from out of state but the attitude i got was totally not needed. she made me feel stupid for even trying to get in with my “vertical”

It's a fun place to grab drinks. The prices are good and the life entertainment is incredible. I love coming here with friends and will be back!

Venue was great service was great but they are afraid to pour that Gray goose ordered premium drinks and you're lucky to get a half ounce of liquor $10 drinks I would not even drink it's just only juice My wife and I switched to beer because drinks were only cranberry juice I would watch them pour and you would be lucky to get one finger worth a liquor on the bottom

Old Bay Chicken Wings at The Rex: The Chuck Norris of Appetizers
If Chuck Norris had a culinary alter ego, it would be Rex’s Old Bay Chicken Wings. These wings are not just a dish; they’re a statement. With a flavor profile so bold, it could roundhouse kick blandness right out of the kitchen!
First off, the seasoning—their blend of Old Bay packs a punch that even Chuck Norris would respect. It's like the spice blend decided to take a karate class and now it’s throwing high kicks of flavor with every bite. The wings are crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside—much like Chuck himself: tough on the outside, but with a heart of gold.
Dipping them in sauce? Please. Chuck Norris doesn’t dip; the sauce comes to him. You’ll want to savor these wings straight up, because anything less would be a disservice to their badassery. However, don’t fret: you have a choice of ranch, blue cheese, or both.
In conclusion, these Old Bay Chicken Wings are a culinary masterpiece that could probably win a fight against any other appetizer in the room. If you’re looking for a wing experience that’s as legendary as Chuck Norris, look no further than The Rex. Just remember: when you eat them, you’re not just enjoying a snack; you’re channeling the spirit of the ultimate action hero.

I was there for my homie, Daryll's, wedding. Shout out to Liam who was bartending that day. He was super friendly and attentive. Great place!
Went for first time on my bday weekend. Terrible mixed drinks. Over priced, they served store brand soda in mixed drinks, DJ didn’t know how to mix music, and they shut the dance floor down at 12:30am. That’s 4 reasons to loose business.

Been a while since I've been there. Not busy service was slow. Couldn't figure out the menu. Wasn't the one online. Ordered two sweet tea. Was brought unsweetened tea with no sugar. Brought back inside told the waitress asked for sweet tea and asked for the bill. Still charged $5.92 for two of the smallest drinks. Avoid this place

We came to see Innuendo perform as Queen. Great show and great venue.
However, the drinks were horrible. We had margaritas and they were quite simply the worst we've ever had. Couldn't drink them. Why were they an off pink color?
So, if you charge premium prices for a show, ensure the drinks at the "VIP" table are at least decent and maybe even try for amazing.
Go across the street and ask Sweetbay how they make theirs, which are delicious.
