First time we tried to eat here, we were treated very poorly by the hostess and waitress so we left without even getting a drink. Thought maybe it was just a bad night so we tried a second time, but the same thing happened. Again the employees treated us like we were an annoyance before we had even sat down! They refused to give us menus and told us we should know what they have?? We left without even getting a drink for the second time. We will not be returning for a third try.

Really good food usually. Just don't get your hopes up to go get lobster there at 430 (right after they open) on a Saturday because they might be out of it somehow even tho it's half their menu...

I came here a few times before and it was great so I came back with my 2 friends and the girl who was behind the bar I believe her name was Abby, she “scanned” our ids and said that they were fake when in reality we are all very much of age and she kept insisting that they were fake in an extremely disrespectful manner and wouldn’t let us do anything to prove ourselves so we left, normally have had a good experience but this time not so good :/ now I’m very hesitant on coming back because I don’t wanna deal with the nonsense.

I have been here many times before and always had a good experience at this bar. I came back with a friend I have been there with before and a new friend that we were excited to show the bar to. A girl named Abby asked for our ids upon taking our order as usual and we gave them to her. She came back and said NONE of our 3 ids would scan and kept saying the only reason they wouldn’t scan was because our ids are fake, which they are not because we are all very much of age and never had any problems at this bar before with this. We asked if she could try it again or if there was anything we could do to prove that they were not fake but she was very rude about it and continued to insist that they were fake, so we left. Now am hesitant on returning to this bar because of accusations and not great customer service.

I’ve been here twice now and have loved each visit! I’ve had a young girl named Chloe as my server twice now and she’s fantastic!! Super attentive, helpful with suggestions, and very friendly. She has made our visit great each time. Hoping to have her next visit!

We had the best dinner at the Bar Association and can't wait to go back! We were seated immediately and the staff were friendly and welcoming. There's a whole side dining room, in addition to the bar area with a few high tables. Our group ordered sandwiches, and we were all super impressed! Everything was served hot and fresh, and we loved the "branding" on the buns. The chicken parm and steak sandwiches were delicious, as were the homemade chips and Tator tots. Their menu is full of a wide array of fruity and dessert martinis, but I went with a dirty martini, and it and as great. I especially loved that the olives were hand stuffed with blue cheese. We will definitely be back again, as there were so many more items on the menu that we want to try!

Wow! Before anything else, the food is soooo good! Love how they brand the buns with their name for a great added touch. I don't know if I've ever seen that before. The crab cake sandwich was one of the best I have ever had. It was a huge crab cake with the perfect amount of sauce on it. My husband loved the bbq pulled pork as well. Our server was so accommodating to us since we needed a high chair as well. She was so personable talking to us and explaining the menu since we had never been here before. Everything is a thumbs up! Great food, drinks, service and reasonable prices.

I don't usually write reviews, but had to after this experience. Went to the Bar Association on a Friday night for dinner. Waitress informed us when we sat down they were out of steak and shrimp. That already limited what is a limited menu. 20 minutes later, she came back to take our drink order. Ordered the crab dip app at that time. 20 minutes later, the drinks and crab dip came out. Drinks in plastic cups, no silverware for the dip. Placed a food order. My crab cake sandwich finally came out after another 20 minutes. Finally, we were asked if we needed silverware. Sandwich just completely fell apart. I didn't expect a Baltimore-level crab cake, but I also didn't expect it to completely disintegrate. Best part came later when the food poisoning set in. Won't go back.

Laid back but very nice friendly bar. Great place to grab a drink with a friend. Not a sports bar but there's TV for watching a game. We each ordered an Old Fashion. They were delicious & generous. The bar was full but we had a seat & our wait time was not long at all. Nice atmosphere. Open to the outside alongside one wall makes it really nice. Kind of a New Orleans vibe.

Some of the girls aren’t the greatest on service. But the ones who are make up for it. This is our happy place during football season.
