“ This place is huge so is good for large parties. they have a whole wall that they can project any sports game on. and on the busier days; like the weekends they have cocktail waitress' to make sure they eliminate any waiting time. I think all busy places should have that. 2 pool tables and a few dart boards too. Definitely a fun place to check out. ”

“ I loved this bar and the owner, Dino. Super chill bartenders in Bev an Queasha, too. I did a Bliss pleasure party there Friday night and loved the inside of the bar. Recently painted. Good cook - had a sandwich cooked by Miguel from Acapulco. The bathrooms could use some extra attention but the clientele there was super cool, too. I will definitely be going back! ”
“ Hands down, my favorite place to dance. It has a great dance floor, good music and doesn't get crowded like the clubs. I'm not really into the whole club scene anymore but I still like to go out and dance every so often. So this place is perfect!! And the dance floor and seating area has been recently remodeled so it's a lot nicer. ”
