If you go here, try not to appear like you have money. If they think you’re rich for whatever reason, They’ll get ya. The younger bartenders and servers here love to play stupid for their own convenience. From “accidentally” adding drinks to your tab to pretending to not know their own specials and charge you the regular price. But ironically, their silly mistakes seem to never work out in my favor. I’ve been coming here a long time because I love their margaritas! Best...
