Matt KlineJuly 25, 2011This place is crowded, the food and drinks are mediocre, and the waitstaff is slow and mildly retarded. 3 tries for a simple order, 2 Carne Asada tacos, no gauc, still didn't get it right.
Lindsey DixonJuly 5, 2013Took the bartender 10 minutes to take our drink order, then they had to call in manager for out of state id's. Wasn't impressed.
Caitlin PlattnerJuly 2, 2011Don't waste your first check in on a holiday. They won't honor the special... LAME!
Jesse ThomasSeptember 3, 2011Horrible service! And the chips they served had to be a month old. So stale. I guess this is the place you come if your completely wasted.
They don't allow you to sit out front unless you have a few people even when it's dead.....you wanna patronize but they won't allow ... Awkward policy
Igor DruzovicMay 27, 2018Ein super Ort für einen Frozen Margarita oder einen Snack. Ab 3 Uhr ist happy hour (halber Preis).

"One of my favorite bars in SB. Mostly because the staff was so nice, specially security. Don't expect it to be the case if you act inappropriately though. They will do their job and kick you out."
