“ Me and my friends always go there for drinks and I get food from there. Food is always great and freshly cooked! Drinks are pretty strong and cold. They do have cold beers as well! The girls and staff is all very kind and never had a problem. I've been going there for yearsss and years with not one problem with anyone. I am a quiet person that stays to my self. I hardly drink or talk to anyone around there. But everybody so far has been respectful and never had a problem with anything. Great place! ”

Last night I bit the bullet and went in, even though I was a bit nervous not sure what to expect as far as the crowd goes . Turns out it was decently diverse, the bartender was sweet and super welcoming! The drinks? Oh, they were just like my ideal man—strong and satisfying The music was all over the place (in a good way), and the space was perfect with tables, chairs, and games like darts , corn hole, and pool .
