Just tried to experience this bar on a Sunday afternoon to celebrate a birthday with friends. I was…read morethe last of two people to join a party of 5 that were already in attendance. We were immediately turned away because we had on sweatpants. The attire rules are posted at the door in a very abrupt and abrasive way and we were quickly approached. The bar was near empty, we only wanted to continue our friend's bday celebration. There was a white server that walked right by us and entered the cigar room with the black server. She didn't say anything to us but the black server immediately came out and told us we needed to leave because of our attire. We were kempt and professional, yet casual. The servers had on uggs, leggings, half zip nylon pullovers, and had the audacity to approach us about attire. I will never, ever, spend my dollars, nor recommend this place to anyone...for ANYTHING.

If you tell them what you're looking for, they are sure to recommend something you'll love or answer any questions you might have. They also have $6 mystery shots, which are so fun and, 10 out of 10 times, delicious! We came in at a slower, earlier time, but later on and during the weekends, it really fills up. It's such a fun environment with plenty of room to stand and enjoy the music or sit and enjoy your cocktail. It's the perfect spot for after-dinner drinks or as a pre-game before an event. This time around, we tried the "Summer '16" and "Berry the Evidence"--both were incredible. Such a fun spot!

I'll definitely be back again and hopefully to sit on the patio.

Honestly, a very lackluster and disappointing experience. This place was recommended to me by my…read moreboss, and honestly I likely won't be going back. The good: Out waitress Molly was very nice, the bartender's choice was fun and the perfect drink for each of us. The espresso martini flight was great and my favorite was the creme brulee espresso martini. The drinks were honestly the highlight and why they get three stars over two. The ambiance was pretty and the whole set up of the restaurant was very cool. The food was good, but not amazing for the price point. The disappointing: The entire place was extremely understaffed for a Saturday evening, and nothing on Molly our waitress- she was doing the best she could. We waited 30 minutes to order, because there was only one waitress. We had no utensils or napkins and had to request them after some of our food already arrived. The pretzel sticks are said to come with a cheese fondue- it's just a cheese sauce. We were expecting fondue. The tuna tartare had big chunks of tuna that was fresh, but also warm, which is not ideal for ahi tuna. I only had one piece of the BBQ bourbon pork but my piece was dry- my roommate and husband said that was probably their favorite dish however. The duck confit was my favorite, the microgreens and sweet mango citrus reduction was a great pairing, but again nothing wowing for a $300+ bill. Ultimately, good, just too pricey for the experience itself.

Do not order the Jaws Blackened Fish Sandwich. It has completely changed and is no longer the same…read moresandwich it used to be. The fish was thin, small, and severely overcooked. It did not appear fresh and looked more like a precooked salmon patty with fake grill marks. In the past, the sandwich had real char from the grill, blackening seasoning, and a strong grilled aroma and flavor. This one had none of that. It was a sad, dry, completely inedible meal. I have ordered this sandwich regularly for the past couple of years, but I will not be purchasing it again. It is absolutely not worth the cost for what now appears to be a precooked, fake-grilled piece of fish. You have been warned.

I had the wagyu skewers which were seasoned to perfection and as tender as could be. I inhaled the crab cakes before taking a picture which is an indication of how good they were.

She knew tge menu and had great insights. She was crazy busy but took excellent care of us. The food was quite nice. Candied Bacon is a must. I had a perfectly cooked filet, we had a delicious short rib, and the Cone Trio. The trio was really tasty but the kitchen somehow forgot to put the tuna in one cone and it was only guacamole.

The Buffalo Shrimp we ordered for the appetizer were soggy and chewy. My burger was also poorly cooked. Then when I asked for the check, the waitress read my total to me instead giving me the check. The amount didn't add up to the amount I estimated, but I paid any ways and left. The amount didn't feel right so I went back and asked for my receipt. On the receipt there was a 3% fee charge. The manager said the fee was to cover inflation. He said everyone is charged the fee and I was not singled out. I accepted his answer as the truth, but there were no signs saying that there would be another 3% fee charged. I had to speak to three people to get someone who knew why I was charged a fee.

The menu is simple but consistently good. All of the burgers I have tried so far have been incredibly tasty, and they also feature a rotating burger of the day to keep things interesting. The Sticky Nugs are by far the absolute standout menu item. That being said, I am still going to say we need a petition to bring the Ricky Bobby flavor back! It was left off after the recent menu change, but if they bring it back, it will easily be a fan favorite all over again. In the meantime, they do have a rotating specialty flavor, so be sure to ask the staff about the current option! To top it all off, they have great drinks and a solid beer selection, all at a solid price point!
