“Great casual bar vibes, cheap prices and great food. What’s not to like? We got the frozen mojito, coke, pernil wrap with lemon pepper fries and Thai chili wings. The mojito was not great sadly. There were no Mint specks and I could not really taste the flavor either. I literally just tasted frozen and liquor. Like the flavor of an icee but very bland lol. I love mojitos so this was kind of sad. The coke was kind of sad too, the carbonation was weak. I like when my soda punches me in my chest with bubbles. The food was great! I really liked the wrap, fries and wings. I think the pernil was a bit dry unfortunately, I heard slow cooked and was expecting juicy like carnitas or al pastor or pulled pork. I’ve had juicier pernil before so maybe today was a bad batch. Good flavor but I can’t stand dry food. Lemon pepper fries were everything ! Perfect crunch and seasoning levels and internal fluffiness. The wings were so so good, crunchy, sweet, slight kick, and great with that squeeze of citrus. Absolutely loved it.

Definitely want to go back for the nachos, spice box, chicken sandwich and more. Definitely need to be wary of the bar but my service was great.“

“If I can remember, I always come here every friday night. Which is karaoke night. So, my review will be based on that specific night only.

Been there few times on friday night. Very busy night, very long line of karaoke, but the DJ did a veryyy good job. He remembers people's faces, like literally remember who requested what. His great memory amazed me and not to mention there is no pause or break. So, eventho its a long line of karaoke, but you will eventually singing.

Bartenders are great, drinks okay. Prices normal for the area, drink sometimes good, sometimes meh.

But yea, so far its been pretty amazing experience.“
