Last couple times my friend and I went to Gecko’s their service was horrible. Tonight was the worst ever and I will never are foot inside this place again. Was at Scale before having a glass of wine and dancing on the patio with my friend. We then went to Gecko’s for some water and food. The skinny cracked out ozempic waitress said exactly this “we were watching you and think you’ve been drinking” to which I told her how rude she is prejudging and how all we wanted was some food and water. Walked out and will never return. Too bad because I’ve been going to this place for about 15 years. The food isn’t even that great.

Server was very inexperienced but very very kind and apologetic. That’s the only nice thing that happened. The bartender was very loudly rude to our server and insisted on asking us all for our IDs before we even sat down-party of 3. He then came back and asked for my friends ID again but while she was in the bathroom so we sat there awkwardly waiting for her to get back. The music ranged from old country to loud EDM in 5 min-very obviously controlled by the arrogant bartender per him singing loudly. The food was absolutely the worst food I’ve ever had and took 45min even though there were only 2 other parties here. The fries were burnt to the point that my entire table thought they were sweet potato fries. The Au Jus for the French Dip Sammy was as salty as soy sauce. Rueben had no cheese. Was shivering cold the entire time we were here. JESUS even the condiments were and watery as piss. And to top it all off the toilet also didn’t flush. Over all, below subpar. No wonder there was only 2 other people in here. In other words, don’t come for the food. Drinks were at least drinkable. You can tell they cut corners in cost at every chance they had. Total bill was $92. Thats just crazy.

In my opinion it’s a Dive bar for the local apartments dark and gloomy almost depressing . Couple tvs playing random stuff bar tender talked too much he thought he was funny throwing trash at people maybe regulars but not cool He gave it a even more dull experience.. cheap beer 5.95 a pint was the minor plus .academy
