Place is great good bartenders ..
Stay away from bar manager she can do what ever she wants......lol..
That's what she says.
Most unprofessional person ever seen .
She was drinking like a patron so you think ..
Then at the end of night decides she can go behind the bar and do what ever she wants ..not good business. To bad nice place.
Needless to say not going there again..

The food is slightly higher than Hot Pockets tier, but charged full price. Unfortunately, sitting at the bar and expecting attention is off the table: if you're not a regular, you're not attended. ½ oz shots are charged at full price.

Tried ordering mixed drinks on multiple occasions, but it doesn't seem the bartenders (when they finally show up) know how to mix the most basic of drinks.

This is an abortion of an establishment that almost has an atmosphere. It's only slim chance of survival is a full douche and replacement of it's staff.

This place rocks. It’s completely renovated and the new menu totally works. The stuffies are house made and superb, the grilled cheese with smoked gouda is phenomenal, even the chicken tenders are clearly house breaded and tasty. Friendly service; it’s clear they’re making an effort to hold regular events most nights and keep things fun and fresh. Management is on a great path and I’m excited to see what they come up with next!

The band Classix played last night. Boy, was I aback. The lead guitarist, Richie, was unbelievable. It has been a long time since I have seen someone with such skills. Eddie Van Halen, rest in peace, was an incredible guitarist. I believe Richie is on par with him. WOW, GREAT NIGHT.

Drinks at the bar were cheap and not diluted, and three drinks were $14. I haven't seen these kinds of prices since the 90s. Great night, great place. I shall return for more entertainment.

Didn’t realize it was a new owners. Walked in to grab a drink and some Portuguese food. They said oh sorry we don’t sell that but we have burgers and mozzarella sticks! Yeaaaaaaaa…. No thanks! That is what made the owners prior a special bar for me! Amazing Portuguese steak sandwiches and Portuguese fries with the Demi wine sauce! The prices for a burger or steak sandwich they were asking $12-$14 for a dive bar!
