Niki TaylorApril 14, 2012Recommended drinks: The Old Fashioned and Gibraltar. Recommended food: Tacos con Papas & Pulled Pork Sandwich.
Veronica VillegasSeptember 12, 2014This place is bigger than i throught it would be. Really cool interior. Ceviche was decent, cocktails were pretty good but the rice pudding was disgusting. Do NOT get the rice pudding.
Hangar steak salad and chili salt fries with homemade ketchup.. So good!
Aaron HackneyJuly 6, 2013Love the bar. But it took 20 minutes to get someone to take our order and the place isn't 1/2 full. Plan on a loooong wait for a drink.
My drink was good for my first time. Bad part is it took 9 mins for someone to acknowledge me while I was sitting at the bar.(no welcomes, how are you, hello,nothing) bad hospitality
The "Shrimp Cocktail" is not what it sounds like. Try it, it's delicious!
Jimmy ThompsonJanuary 18, 2014Ok these bartenders know what they are doing try the Midnight in Mexico Smokey flavorful but only if you like Mezcal
eric rainvilleMarch 9, 2015Do not eat here. Tried to get a table last night, there were 10 empty tables, host said there was a two hour wait. When I challenged him about the empty table his reply was "ever hear of a reservation
Abel AlvaradoOctober 20, 2013They make their own pickles and condiments. GREAT food served late into the night.
Shyamali CultureintrosMarch 24, 2013Busy and a little difficult to get served, but comfortable and nice drinks.
Amy LoeMay 18, 2013Waited 30 minutes to get a drink. Great place to sit in the cool air conditioning as long as your not hungry or thirsty :|- Drew JaynesDecember 31, 2014Avoid the live music on Tuesday nights. Great musicians, terrible vocals.
Ryan TaubeJanuary 10, 2015Service takes a long long long time. Still waiting for my drink in fact. 20 minutes later. Cool vibe though.
