City PagesOctober 7, 2013The guacamole is made before your eyes, at tableside, and because of that it's as fresh & good as possible. The chili, made with sirloin steak and black beans, is both rib-sticking and sophisticated.UpvoteDownvote- City PagesAugust 5, 2014If you mix them, they will come! Bar Abilene has proved this, building an almost cult-like following with their 16-ounce margaritas made with fresh juices and top-shelf tequilas. Read more

Elizabeth MackFebruary 16, 2014Awesome brunch with loads of meatless options. And I love the bottomless mimosas (for only $5).

Go for HH, sit on the sunny patio, and enjoy a few of their classic margaritas and a basket of their amazing salted tortilla chips + table-side guacUpvote1Downvote
Every Sunday, they do brunch & $3 ALL YOU CAN DRINK mimosas. Seriously the best deal in town. Where else can you get tipsy for $3?!UpvoteDownvote
$3 bottomless mimosas are now $5, and food prices have increased. It was very busy though, so they must be doing something right!Upvote1Downvote
Lianna シJune 14, 2014The only place I've ever been to where I've seen the line to the men's room longer than the women's.

Ashley BystromFebruary 5, 2012I didn't realize how much times have changed & was taken aback by the need for thorough bag checks. That said, if prior incidents have warranted such precautions, I'm happy to oblige!UpvoteDownvote
Surrah OhnoAugust 14, 2011Table side guacamole is bomb. Worth the $10. Especially if your server has some nice cleavage. Smash that avocado gurrrl ;-)UpvoteDownvote
Albert MDecember 27, 2012Good guacamole! And it's Latino dance night!! Salsa, merengue etc... Great fun!UpvoteDownvote
Britanny GerdinApril 16, 2014Wow, really disappointed in the Tuesday night trivia. Answers aren't read and questions were verbatim from about.com -only know because we went to that site to brush up before hand.UpvoteDownvote
Try the crab and spinach enchiladas. Hands down the best enchiladas I've ever had...and I'm from Texas.UpvoteDownvote
Go on the nights they have sporcle trivia, it's free and totally fun!Upvote1Downvote
Austin MlezivaJuly 19, 2014Mimosas are only five dollars, and they don't stop coming until you leave. Don't be fooled though, this ain't no golden corral, the eggs Benedict were not as delightful as I anticipatedUpvoteDownvote
Maggie EpplerJuly 14, 2013The bathrooms are like a sauna... But otherwise it's a fun place to be :)UpvoteDownvote
Jen J.August 18, 2011Monday night 2-for-1 everything in the menu - drinks too! 4-9 pm!!! Great deal!!UpvoteDownvote
If you see Dave P., throw him a smile. Best manager around!UpvoteDownvote

Jason "Gus" WiltseMarch 9, 2012Get the nachos and if you're into facing its Salsa Night every Thursday!UpvoteDownvote
Ryan RichardsonApril 21, 2013Do not come here for brunch. Bottomless mimosas are weak and are now $10. They were $5 just a week ago and $3 a few months ago.Upvote1Downvote
Go on Half-Price Monday's. Everything on the menus is %50 off!UpvoteDownvote
John E. ThompsonSeptember 9, 2011Best low-key dance bar I've been to; good drinks; better Mex food.UpvoteDownvote
Brooks AlbrechtSeptember 12, 2010Awesome music and bar...but could use a bit more bathroom space if they really wanted to capitalize on their crowdUpvoteDownvote
Buy one, get one free on EVERYTHING! Monday nights!UpvoteDownvote
Brooke RaekerAugust 28, 2013Not a bad place but the bathrooms are tiny and prepare to wait in line for at least 20 minutes on a Friday or Saturday night.UpvoteDownvote

Nneka MaSeptember 12, 2011Got yelled at for dancing outside the club. The Bouncer said it starts fights. Dancing only starts fights when you battle dance WTH?UpvoteDownvote

"Best wings I've ever had. And I've had a lot of wings! Buffalo and Asian are both amazing. They are full 3-joint wings (drummy, winglette & wing-tip) so order accordingly."
