I'm not one to post, but I need to rant. Eddie took me to lunch at The Uptown today for our anniversary. The service was miserable. The bartender was carrying a huge attitude before we walked in. She was fussing and carrying on about having to do chores in the yard of the bar and telling everyone how she was not doing them, that she didn't care. We sat in the middle of the bar, and had a single drink and shared a plate of food with an extra order of fries. Another girl came in and brought a karaoke machine for something happening later tonight. A customer said to not ask him what the microphone looked like and her response was that she already knew it looked like an adult ... toy. Fill in the dots. She paid us no attention the whole time. Eddie asked for water twice and didn't get it until almost ten minutes later. She was only interested in the men that didn't have a female companion. I only spoke to her when I said thank you for my drink. We couldn't get her attention to get our bill or a box for our left overs. Eddie tried to get her attention 3 times. When we finally got to pay, Eddie put a note on the check saying maybe she should be more interested in something other than male anatomy, and the new microphones, that our service was awful. We went out to the car, and she CHASED US INTO THE PARKING LOT. She was screaming about how we were rude to her, while getting our license plate. All we did was tell the truth. I'll never go back and I'll never suggest it to friends or family. I have left reviews and I hope that the owners reach out to me. The food is not good enough for this kind of treatment!

A bit pricy. Loud the evening we went. Food was standard.

A lot changed over the last 2 years. I use to love coming here, the food was great the service was great and just a nice little hole in the wall bar & grill. I will probably not go back after todays experience. The server was new which is fine but after asking for straws he passed twice with drinks for other tables but no straws for us. After some time had passed my husband popped up to the bar and grabbed straws to which the waiter finally decided to bring straws shortly after. We ordered one irsh dip sandwich, one shroom sandwich and a kids hamburger. 30 minutes later the food still hasnt arrived. The server comes by and asked if he can get is anything, i laughed and said food. Joking but also seious cause it was a really long wait. The hamburger hamburger came as a cheeseburger which my son wont eat cause he doesnt like american cheese, not a huge big deal but kinda annoying. My husbands shroom burger was pink in the middle he ate it anyway because he didnt want to send it back. My Irish dip was a sad little sandwich with literally 4 small slivers of roast beef and the dipping sauce was colder than my sweet tea. I mentioned it to the server who said he would go warm it up for me. When he came back with a different bowl i assumed he corrected it. It was warm not hot and tasted awful the sandwich was bland at best. I was so disappointed especially with 2 of the meals costing $15. Would have been cheaper and more satisfying to have bought from arbys. The small blue margarita was well made but hardly worth the $6 price tag. I dont know what changed but it definitely was not in a good direction.

The burger was good. The fries were soggy. The server was ok, but she could have offered to have more fries cooked a little harder when we mentioned it. There were some men and one woman at the bar who were a little rowdy so definitely not a place for young children. Probably won't be back, but the burger was still good.

Overall a 3 star rating from me. Upon walking in, smelled a little strange. Nothing crazy. We ordered some wings and a burger. Took a little bit longer than expected. Wings were amazing! My burger was a little dry. I got the Carolina burger and my chili was essentially just hamburger meat lol. Fries were great tho. We had a mishap with the server because he explained he got flustered and we didn’t get the correct amount of wings but he fixed it for us! Super nice. Would possibly come again.

Right off the main strip with a backyard and probably one of the nicest servers we have had in a while, (Angel). Good beer choice, great burgers and fish & chips. Not fancy but just right!
