It is now the next day, and I couldn't stop thinking how one person, myself, was charged $80+ they stated I had 8 beers and a cocktail. I saw my mistake, I left my tab open at a place I'm not familiar with. For anyone else going to this place, do yourself a favor and keep count of your drinks and have someone there to vouch for you or just don't open a tab. If I do return, I'll just purchase with cash.

I feel I was taken advantage of and clearly can not see myself drinking 8 beers at any establishment. I will not be coming back to a place that possibly made a mistake or really taken advantage of a new customer. Either way, the environment is nice and relaxing. The cocktails were great, too! But this visit really rubbed me the wrong way.

Did not like the overall atmosphere of this place and $8 for 3 pieces of very bite size rib tips?! No.

A great bar to catch-up with friends. The Monday Steak Night is a must get deal along with the frozen screwdrivers.

Love the atmosphere. It’s dark, full bar, plenty of seating. The only food I had was a couple different tacos on Tuesday; 1/2 off for taco Tuesday. The smoked salmon had a big flavor, the Buenos Aires tacos were good, but should have a bit more of their aioli, that is a good aioli! Make sure to ask for salsa or it will not come with the tacos. The verde is good, not quite hot enough for verde (the hotter of the sauces for tacos is normally verde; this was good just not hot). Beautiful place for a good time and a little trendy but not in a bad way. I would easily make it a regular place if I lived near Rice Village. Not overly expensive, but definitely on par for the area. No table service (except for receiving the food), which makes it lovable as a neighborhood bar. Old black and white movies on the tvs, and very cool easy listening music overhead that doesn’t overpower conversations. Awesome staff, friendly and helpful. They have a discount food option for every night. It’s a good option to avoid the overdone rice village trend setters yet could be a great place to bring friends. Outside seats with smoking. And 13 beers on tap. Even saw a beautiful dog with a customer. Overall it’s a great place and hope they continue to do what they do!

Parking: Small lot but big for the area.

Nice chill spot. Bartenders have always been nice when I go there. Not too bad of a place.

It's more a bar with food. Great bar, unique food at fair prices. Parking is not great but found places nearby.

Great place to be threatened by over-served drunks while the staff do nothing. Mid food, okay drinks, high prices. Not worth the trouble. Don’t think it’s going to make the rotation for me.

Parking: Parking lot is small and unmarked. There was a jeep blocking the entrance when we arrived.

One of my fave neighbourhood spots! The owner and staff are all lovely, and the atmosphere is warm, inviting, and laid back. Over the years, I've made some great memories there. If you haven't been, go!

Best expertly made cocktails in Houston. The coffee cocktails are in a league of their own.
