I like to check on my fantasy football team and can't do it with no internet 2 STOOPID food prices. My wife and I were horrified to learn the really marginal fish burgers were NINE FREAKING DOLLARS A PIECE. Idiotic. 3 SMOKING. Bars should put smokers outside away from sane people period. Second hand smoke to me is Xyklon B. Its poisonous. Terrible. So if you hate smoking ( every sane person should; cigarettes are death sticks) you want internet (duh?) and fair food prices then I'd say skip this place. We are not going back.

The food was the best in that area and one of the best for our 2 week trip. I don't think they take reservations because everyone in line was waiting - first come first serve style. We were a small group so the wait was less than 30 min but a group of 10 waited an hour. If that's you, just head to the bar or grab a drink from OXXO (711) next door while you wait. It's worth it!

A large selection of margaritas: pineapple-basil was a good variant. The tableside prep of mouthwatering wood-smoke salsa was so flavorful, and the tableside guacamole was so fresh and full of avocado flavor (you can customize every ingredient with your server during prep.) The ribs were good with a nice tangy sauce, and the twice-baked potato side was delicious... but not as good as the stuffed BBQ shrimp with habanero! I tried the coconut shrimp also, and it was a winner with light and delicious coating without the usual overpowering coconut flavor, and wasn't greasy.

We had the bbq pork sliders and the cheese burger sliders. They were very bland. The pork sliders came with bbq sauce already on it and so heavily applied that's all I could taste. The fries were not cooked enough with crisp to them just soggy. read more

Each time they were kind enough to switch the channel to the game that we wanted to watch, but several times during the game, they would change the channel to something else without even checking with us. This happened again and again, and was becoming quite annoying. As for the food, it was okay. Not great, but not bad either. Service was on the slow side. It seemed that we waited forever for everything. A bit too expensive for what you get, in my opinion. The place is always busy, but I think it's more because of a great location next to a major hotel, and not because of great food or service. There are better sports bars around, but if you don't mind the slow service, it will do.

Two for the price of one and includes French fries and slaw. I order a combo special with ribs and chicken. The first time the chicken was juicy and tender but this time it was dry and flavorless. It's all good it happens. The sauce is consistent and they have some spicy sauce you can add on. The baked potato is fine but only comes with sour cream so ask for butter while it's hot. I personally don't love the slaw but I have friends who do. Found out today the coconut shrimp is the best in the marina. It's got good natural coconut flavor and texture with the shrimp still shining through the batter. Good sauce accompanying the meal. It's a special not an appetizer. I love the location and the service could be a bit better but overall it's good. I come back for ribs and wings and sports.

The fried pickles were delicious with a light cornmeal coating served with ranch dressing. BBQ chicken came with fries and was juicy and sauced just right. I did not receive the chicken sandwich but rather a bbq chicken and rib combo served with fries. This appears to be a mistake but we didn't realize until we got home. Meat portions were quite large. Ribs were ok but I'm a rib snob so I wasn't overwhelmed but they were juicy and tender. I wish they gave us more fried pickles. I would return and recommend. Great location. Lots of tvs for sports, and nice view of the marina!
