Prost, Cheers, Salut! Whatever form that you celebrate too a…read moreliquor store is near. What time it? It's time for cheers and beers right! Claiming Vegas as my backyard, for a minute the moments that I needed an extra boost, I found here. Happy can be found in whatever feeds your needs at the moment. My moments as I do work in this small little town will be remembered when I reach for the potion that kept me warm and secure. I breezed in as fast as I breezed out. Snooze that alarm clock goes off and I wake up. The snooze is a must because the sun is not even up yet. Maybe snooze one more time. As I remember to stand, I make it to the drink; I'm trying to recall the memories that might have been, the moments that I'm living now. It's another day, let's visit this little store to seek what makes my moments more bearable. Back in town again, the local hotel it's walking throws to this store. The clerk does not know my name. He smiles and probably wonders why he's here. The small brown bag are just the joys of my life as of now. These are my todays, these are the past moments that were my days. These days are now a little brighter and less broken. We all must go through moments of transition as pen this and recall the past, this is where these times stay. Now into the future, yes the future brings joy too! Who would of thought? Times do change, again recalls of the past make todays even better! It reminds me of some words that "you" shared with me. Then, the days these moments when I breezed into town held these moments and memories are never gonna happen to be the same. The days always seemed to move together and in a mesh of fixed blurs. No smiles grazed my face, the memories before your name took these moments and made them reflections in the fast. The moments I lived, my old days fade away when your name pops in my brain. Let that play again, "the moments I lived, my old days fade, when your name pops in my brain." An ordinary life and moments reflect in the mirror are the past: replaced with in between hope and ultimate joy. Some habits must be buried and bring better days! As it seems now, my days and thoughts of needing a bottle or two or three to soothe me are over; this store was the foundation of my visits when I came to town to work. Sure it's an ordinary liquor store in the middle of a no where town in any given city; but the kindness of the clerk made me happy. A smile and conscious genuine joy of other human beings was all the standards that one needs especially when we feel so low and alone. If you ever roll through here stop in for that "drink of choice," as needed. But the liquor store stocks hard to find sodas that you may of only had as a kid. Take a stroll down memory lane, or just wander in so the store clerk can smile at someone and be reminded of humanism too. Smile and pass along joy in the wink of the moment you meet another's glance. Remember we are all in this together, it's always better to be nice for it makes life much easier and happier!

The ambiance was spot on and the signage around the bar is hilarious. The energy within the bar fell flat it was very hot inside and there was no music which left me to, feel like leaving.

I swear we only got like 5 maybe 6 ice cubes each and they melted quickly in the heat.

Arizona Sake, not a liquor store…read more.. Read about Atsuo Sakurai's labor of love, his personal love story too, in Smithsonian Magazine 2021* and immediately started to source his high-grade sake but to no avail. Being a sake fan, definitely not an aficionado, I shared what I'd read and my failed quest for Sakurai's USA made product with a relentless foodie friend. It reminded us both of our sake sipping days at the now closed Santa Monica Airport's restaurant, Typhoon **. Christmas gift exchange. I gave my friend sourdough starter. Hey, it was the tail end of the pandemic. My treat was a chilled bottle of Atsuo Sakurai's raw unprocessed, premium Junmai Ginjo sake. We shared, sipped, savored soul soothing elixir at my dining room table. I never did find out how that fine bottle made it there though. Photographed the bottle but self-editing me deleted it, didn't review Arizona Sake either concerned Yelp would 86 both because I didn't visit AZ. May still remove. Read it while it's here... Fortunately, Arizona Sake is now readily available through many US retailers in both AZ and CA like Whole Foods, Total Wine.

Tips are a privilege, not a right! Be careful when stopping here, and do not leave cash on the bar table because she will help herself to that too! Is this lady on crack or what?!

Not only that but I believe it to be this startling disrespectful little girls mother was also harassing Maria and calling her names, mistreating her in front of a line of customers!! No wonder where this girl gets her influence from!! Great role model!!! It is inconceivable that Maria even apologized to me after what I had witnessed. 100% disappointed. If it wasn't t for Maria I would NEVER go back to this place. Some kind of authority needs to be put in place here. Ruined my day. I am appalled, outraged and disgusted. Someone help this lady.
