Drinks around $8-$10, canned beer (I didn't see draft), and cocktails. The Guava cocktail with coconut rum gave island vibes, while the gin and tonic with cucumber was just okay. Something about the gin and tonic was unusually sweet. Would've held off on that. If you're going to get food, the wings from the truck outside are good. The pirate taco from another trick, not so great.

Bad : Bar area is undersized for the amount of traffic. Both sides of the bar are more times often than not found to have excruciatingly long lines just to order a drink. Drinks : while fairly priced, the mixed drinks aren't as strong as you'd probably hope for them to be. They taste good but it is almost as if you're paying $8 for a juice.

So we order, by the time she came back with our drinks the she asked about our ID which I didn't have a problem because I'm twenty one. But the weird part was she took my id and my friend to the back. Really? You haven't seen an ID from California before? That's one thing that ruined my night just a bit, other than the show was funny. Kept me laughing all night, I don't remember those comedian names but I knew one is pretty well known he's on MTV and VH1. His line that he always said "Chicken Nugget"

Crazy!!!! So now the computers don't work and we got charged for one bucket because the other employee just came and took the other bucket that was already promised to us. Pooooooor business management. We got a new cashier friendly and apologetic for the employees behavior...so we appreciate that. Our waitress inside was nice but only checked on us once .

The menu online looks spectacular and had a lot of interesting dishes. I was super excited. I saw that they were open late and I was also very happy about this because my meal was after work. I arrived at 9:30 walked in the side entrance and saw a post hunched over and squatted down, looking at her iPhone. I also saw another employee leaning on the host stand talking to her. He didn't greet me neither did she until I walked to the front of the house stand. She got up from her crouch position and said can I help you? I was surprised to see what she was wearing, an oversized hoodie with some type of logo on it, which was not an appropriate thing to wear, and it did not match the other employee that were more crisp. I said dining for one and grabbed a menu and slid it across the host stand out of pure laziness. She slumped her way over with the menu hanging on her left side and sat me at a table. Wow what a lousy first impression for a restaurant that I was so excited to visit. A server came over gave me a menu and brought me water. Disappointed to see that the menu was completely different from the menu that I saw online. No unique dishes and the variety was not great. However, I was there and felt I'd give it a chance. A server that was at the bar entering tickets or something, kept looking over at my table, but no one ever acknowledged me after I was seated. I waited for about 10 minutes until someone realized I need assistance. The server finally came over. He was polite to check my order served my meal left me to be on my own to check on me one time, but it certainly wasn't a two minute check when he should to see if my meal was to my satisfaction. My plates were not cleared and I had to ask for the check.. the food was OK. I had the salmon. Nothing spectacular. risotto was uneventful. Got my check and left. No goodbye, no thank you for coming in no stand out service. As a restaurant professional in California, I can't figure out if it's just a Texas thing or they rate everything high or this restaurant truly is deserving of its accolades..

Oh, and the prices are reasonable, and the Rocks Margaritas are very good too. I will be back.

There are bars on every window and a bit rundown down but the parking lot had a ton of cars. That speaks volumes! We were greeted and told we could sit anywhere, other than reserved spots since there was a band starting at 8pm. The band was a huge plus. They brought chips and salsa and we ordered some margaritas. Just a note, they don't do Cadillac. The were good, not great. Same with the Pina Colada. My husband ordered the crispy tacos and I the tres enchiladas with a salad. The salad was all iceberg lettuce with an interesting dressing with a tangy flair. The enchiladas were good but the beans dried out. My husband wasn't crazy about the tacos. We stayed for the band which consisted of one guy. Regardless, he was fun and did all genres of music. Overall, it was a great first night experience. Thanks Charlie! We enjoyed metting you too!
