Huge statues, giant artwork, crazy flooring, and all sorts of cool decorations. Whether you want to get some drinks, eat some rice bowls, sing karaoke, play video games, or dance...this place got you! There's a lot going on all at once but this place does them all right! It's an 18+ establishment and they will card you at the door. The only negative is when we were eating, there were flies flying around. Seems they could keep the place a little cleaner am to avoid this. The food was decent but honestly if you just go to drink and not eat, you won't have to worry about this. We'll be back for my fiancé's birthday as she wants to get a big group all together in a fun, large spot!

It's a rectangle bar with the back area reserved for gaming, the middle section is where the bar is and the front is the karaoke stage. Seating is scattered around the place. You have to go to the desk just inside the door to get a wrist band. This is not a serious place to go to have a drink. Its all about the visuals. The parking lot had a lot of litter and trash thrown on the ground and that pretty much sums up the type of place it is.

Sitting at the bar is not fun when you hear the bartender and the patrons verbally fighting each other. It's a good place to play pool if you don't mind smelling like cigarettes when you get home because the place reeks of it. I went with a friend and we're both in the younger age range 22 and 23 with vertical Texas ID's and the boss denied us a beer because he couldn't tell if our IDs were fake or not... Don't expect much when you come here. What you get is what you get. Based on the other reviews I wouldn't order food let alone any type of drink from here.

    One thing about me is I love a trashy bar. I love a dive bar. I won't lie though the prices here…read moreare a little high considering the atmosphere. The women's restroom is a joke. Someone smoked in there and used the toilet paper holder as an ash tray. I should've known from entering. The lady taking our orders had to be new, but she was super kind. She was laughing with us and we all got along great. The prices were more expensive than a dive bar. They said they didn't make Mexican candy shots because they didn't have tajin so we asked for them without it. Big mistake they were wayyyyy over priced. I can't complain, because my mother in laws cousin ended up paying for everyone's drinks. He said all that matters is that we had a good time. I think I ended up have 3 margaritas on the rocks (they don't do frozen :( ), 2 amaretto sours, 1 Mexican candy shot, and one grape rain (bartender's suggestion / tastes like grape soda). The only complaint I have in the price. The bartender / manager came around and introduced herself to everyone. She was super nice and we even took some selfies with her (not on my phone). They allow smoking in here which isn't my thing, so be warned. I can't complain, because there are plenty of places that don't allow smoking that i an go to. We played pool and drank end of story. This is not a trendy bar. No bells and whistles. This is the kind of bar you come to, because you aren't dressed nice and you want a few strong drinks. Isn't the cleanest place either, but it has pool and it's huge.

The wait time was as expected for that amount of people to come in. I had the fire roasted salmon and I loved it. It was a great contrast of differing textures and flavors. It was a lot better than I expected. The portion for me was perfect, I was full and satisfied by the end of it. They do an excellent job in trying to accommodate everyone and they made an effort to regularly check in. This place has that woody, western vibe to it. Definitely a little pricey on certain menu items but aside from that a good time overall.

    The evening started out great, but quickly went downhill. Our server, Lexus was polite, friendly,…read morehelpful, energetic and very pleasant. She took our drink orders, food orders and then everything seemed to fall apart. She returned several times, but mentioned that she was tied up handling several large drink orders and that was the last we saw of her. The food was delivered by other servers. As you can see, the fried catfish fillets were burnt on the outside, but the fish was undercooked inside and had raw (uncooked) portions inside. Not a pleasant surprise. We later learned that Lexus had left for the day and we were left on our own, so to speak. No drink refills for the nearly three hours we were there. Finally, we had to get up and find someone to help us and get our checks. When I was able to pay I requested a receipt, which I never received. Lastly, when we were leaving, someone was mopping the walkway and left puddles of water in the walk, which posed a slip hazard for our group of elderly individuals. When we told a server about the water in the walkway, she told us that she knew it was wet, because she just mopped it. Not an answer you want to hear. All in all, a very unimpressive experience.

    Good Vegan spot in the Sugar Land area with craft cocktails!…read more The vibe is 'out of this world', eclectic and quirky. So don't expect to impress for a romantic date night unless your date's really into aliens - then you should definitely take them there!! Mostly a chillaxed vibe up in here. We sat at the bar, and our mixologist was friendly and enjoyable to chat with. The drinks were crafted well. I opted for the Everglade Martini, and it was so refreshing!! I had two - let's be real! But the cocktail menu is vast, so there is something for everyone's taste buds. The food was really good too. That night, my friend and I opted for Fried Mushrooms, Kabob Gyro, and Classic Pepperoni Calzone. The mushrooms were awesome - fried perfectly, not greasy, and the Buffalo Sriracha dipping sauce was flavorful. Our meals were both great, too. Overall, a great night over some delicious vegan food!

They took 15min to bring it back and when they did, it was the half eaten sandwich, not a new one. The owner, who is in the kitchen cooking, never came out to address us, even though we sent 2 items backs. My experience in the past is usually good, which is why we drove 40min from downtown. Thank goodness the mushrooms were very good.

A lot of things are self serve, napkins and utensils. After ordering, there's a pick up counter for your food and drinks. The cafe is in a very nice spot. It is next to a really nice park and there's a dog area too. Parking is free but limited.

    Trying to order was a little challenging. There was one menu by the front door that we were…read moredirected to, but then there was a different menu at the register with pieces of white paper covering parts of it. It would have been much easier if we'd been directed to that menu first. There were also photos of drinks displayed on the counter without prices, so we had to ask about each one. The staff had to enter every drink into the computer just to tell us the price. We ordered two drinks, a ham and cheese croissant, a lemon blueberry loaf, and two macarons. We received the drinks and macarons, but nothing else. We waited about 10 minutes, assuming someone would call us when the rest of our order was ready, but no one ever did. I finally went back to the counter, and the employee said, "Oh, I thought the other girl did it." While we were waiting, I had plenty of time to look around. The tables, booths, and chairs were dirty. There was food on the tables and floor, and the front door looked like it hadn't been cleaned in quite a while. One employee was sitting on what appeared to be her personal laptop, laughing and watching something instead of helping customers or cleaning. I remember working in food service years ago, and one thing that was drilled into us was, "If you have time to lean, you have time to clean." That definitely didn't seem to apply here. The food itself was okay, but having to remind the staff to finish our order was disappointing. You're asked to tip before you've received any service, yet everything is self-service and no one checks on you. I don't mind self-service at all when it's organized and the restaurant is clean, but this experience felt disorganized from start to finish. I wanted to like this place, but unfortunately, I left more frustrated than impressed.
