Had an awesome time at Recreation Sports and Social! The staff was super friendly and made us feel welcome right away. You can tell they actually enjoy working there, which made the whole vibe even better.
Drinks were great – solid selection, good prices, and everything came out quick. Perfect spot to grab a drink with friends, hang out, and just enjoy the night.
The energy in the place is fun and relaxed, not too loud, not too chill – just the right mix. Definitely coming back!

Bartender with the red hair skipped me multiple times to attend men. Ruined my night, I was waiting for so long while she kept skipping me. I finally cut someone off so I could order, he had just gotten up to the bar and was right next to me and the bartender acted like she didn’t see me and asked him what he wanted instead of me. 0/10

Cool little sports bar to catch a game (no audio). Gives me Tulum / Cabo vibes.

TL;DR happy hour ✅, drinks ✅, service ✅, music ✅, patio ✅, vibes ✅

Popped in here for drinks on a Sunday, they have a great happy hour both food and drinks. Very ✨asthetic ✨ boho vibe with Latin music and drinks. I like that they open the floor to ceiling doors/windows to make the patio an inside outside deal. Music was 🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽, if you like salsa, reggaeton, merengue this is a good spot. The service was awesome! The bartender was super friendly and even came around from behind the bar to serve us at the high top. The Barback was also helpful keeping the areas clean and clutter free. Drinks were fairly priced, something like $9 for their specialty margarita. Mexican candy shots were also tasty. Overall YES!

I visited this place primarily because they were broadcasting a live game I was following. However, the wagyu burger didn’t quite meet my expectations. Firstly, they didn’t ask how I like my burger, resulting in an overcooked and dry patty. Secondly, after bringing my food, no staff member approached me to ask if I needed anything else during my entire visit. On the brighter side, the ambiance was pleasant.

We came on a Saturday evening and really enjoyed ourselves. The staff were great and accommodating with our drinks and keeping our waters filled. We grabbed some apps to share and those were yummy too. The DJ was awesome as well. A very fun place for sure!

From first bite to last sip, this restaurant delivers an experience that balances elevated food with a laid-back, welcoming vibe. Known for its crowd-pleasing menu, diners consistently rave about the juicy chicken sandwiches—crispy, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned—as well as the indulgent wagyu burgers that strike just the right balance of richness and bite. The yellowtail crudo adds a lighter, more refined touch to the menu, offering fresh, clean flavors that impress without trying too hard.

Cocktail lovers will find plenty to enjoy here, especially if you're into gin. The bar staff knows their spirits, and the gin selection is surprisingly deep for a casual spot. Whether you're into classic G&Ts or something more inventive, you’ll find a drink that hits the mark. Other cocktails are equally solid—well-crafted without being overly fussy.

The atmosphere strikes a nice balance between lively and comfortable. TVs are well-placed for watching the game without dominating the space, making it a great option for sports fans who still want quality food. The staff adds to the warm vibe, with service that’s consistently friendly, fast, and attentive without ever feeling pushy.

The spacious patio is a standout feature—ideal for everything from sunny afternoon brunches to relaxed evening drinks with friends. There’s enough room to spread out, and the energy outside is just as inviting as indoors.

Whether you're dropping in for a quick bite, a game night hangout, or a casual dinner with friends, this spot hits all the right notes. With standout food, great drinks, and a team that clearly cares, it’s easy to see why this place has become a go-to favorite for so many.

Place blows. Bartenders aren’t very nice, drinks are overpriced and pretty mid. I’d be really surprised if this place lasts very long.

I loveee this place. I go to watch games and they have a great DJ on the weekends. Outdoor seating is great for people watching. The food is amazing and at an affordable price. I like the chicken sandwich and burger!!!!

Walked in to an upscale open concept venue with my favorite thing on the big screen, sports. Picture a fine dining establishment with sports entertainment and you lol like it here. Food was awesome, we got the yellowtail crudo, chicken sandwich, and wagyu burger. Couldn’t have been happier, especially with an elegant cocktail to go with it. I highly recommend coming in for a date, night out, or bigger sporting event!!

The place seems to have potential, it just lacks care in customer service. Bartender seemed a little over whelmed.
