Great spot to watch sports—lots of TVs and comfortable spacing between tables. Food and drink prices were reasonable; the 20 oz draft beer was under $9, which is a great deal. The house-smoked brisket quesadillas ($16) are listed as a starter but were large enough to be a main. I’d definitely come back here to watch another game.

Cool place to see music and drink a beer or few. Do not order food here. It is a complete joke and even when confronted about it, the kitchen staff did not care in the slightest. The picture below is *exactly* how the coconut shrimp arrived to the table. Just... don't bother serving food if it's going to be like this.

the interior is so much nicer than the exterior: black/dark deco, hi-top tables, industrial ceiling, semi-open kitchen, integrated stage, long bar, etc. hi-Q sound system w/subwoofer. too many screens 😬 friendly service. fair Q/P
