    Goosetown lounge.

    If I could give this place zero stars I would. I have been her so many times and I've never ever experienced the discrimination, discomfort and displacement this place made me feel today. My friend and I walked in ordered a couple of drinks and to ask about karaoke night. The bartender Shawn/Shaun, I hope it wasn't because we were the only Hispanic women in there, wouldn't even acknowledge us. He helped 3 customers before us and still no service. I've been coming to the goosetown for a long time. It's extremely disappointing that this bartender is treating us this way i don't want to call it discrimination cause I don't know what this bartender is going through today but the service we got was extremely disappointing and sad. To the goosetown owners... I hope your bartenders do better.

    Goosetown is the local dive bar that's closest to downtown WG (safe walking distance) and has karaoke on the weekends. During the day there are the locals and the wonderful bartender Hopper. Hopper is a gem and will remember your life story - so be careful! Jk ;) So if you are looking for a safe and welcoming dive bar this is the place. Closes late so great place to end the evening.

    Went there on a late Sunday afternoon. Nice atmosphere, nice patrons, friendly staff, cheap drinks. Everybody seems friendly and happy there. It's a perfect place to chill around! It's small and clean. You can order food in from next door (great Mexican restaurant). Great dive bar, probably becoming my new spot :)

    karaoke is a favorite pastime, and the goose is a great spot to belt out some tunes and shake ya booty in between sets.

    If you're new to the game or are too self conscious to visit a more serious setting, fairway zone…read moreis the perfect place to start. This is more of a sports bar setting with TV's everywhere so you don't have to worry about judgmental staff or uptight players. Chances are everyone is too busy watching "the game" to notice your crappy swing. The sim, although tricky and hard to read if you've only played real courses, is accurate and offers a ton of feedback. Gameplay supports up to 4 players unless you set up the golf range setting, then it's basically open season. Only 2 bays available by reservation so plan accordingly. There are some loner clubs if you don't have your own otherwise bringing your set is recommended. We had a bunch of appetizers that were all excellent. We came on a slow night too so no issues with drinks/food orders but I can see that being an issue when it gets lively(then again what restaurant doesn't have this issue when busy?). To my understanding this place just went through a menu/renovation refresh so look to the newest pictures for the most up to date info.

    The ambiance and décor are nice -- and that's about where the positives end. When we sat down and…read moreopened the menu, several items were crossed out or scribbled over, so the food options I had seen on Yelp were no longer available. We had two different servers come to our table who didn't seem to be communicating with each other. As a result, we never received an order of sliders, yet they still appeared on our bill. The bartender also struggled with very basic cocktails. A simple cosmopolitan and a lemon drop -- both extremely common drinks -- seemed to cause confusion, which was surprising. As for the food, it was nothing memorable. One friend ordered a smash burger that was so smashed it included the bun, which I've never seen before. The wings I ordered were small and underwhelming -- five wings for $15 felt overpriced and disappointing. Overall, I don't understand how this place has a 4.5-star rating on Yelp. I left pretty disappointed. The only thing that seems to keep people coming back is the scantily clad servers rather than the food or service.

Didn't think we would find a place since Christmas in the Park was in full swing, but was pleasantly surprised with Rookies! Though their typical clientele may be the die hard sports fan, they accommodated our crew of kids quite nicely! They had a huge variety of appetizers for sharing and lots of entree options! What surprised me the most was their crisp salads! I think the Rookies Caesar salad is among my most favorite of salads. The crisp and fresh lettuce paired with the crunchy crouton, all tossed in a light dressing, makes me want to make a trip back!

The second night, I went to an Asian place and that tasted great as well. I was two for two. My third evening was a beautiful evening to walk the around the city, which I really enjoyed. Eventually I found myself in the need of a drink and some food. I ran into Rookies Sports Lodge. I looked inside and the ambience felt like a comfortable sports bar atmosphere, with plenty of TV's. Just what I was in the mood for. The bartender greeted me quickly and brought me a G&T, which tasted great. It did take a while to get some food ordered. There were several items that looked great, but I was kind of feeling a burger and didn't want to pay $9.00 for a side of fries which the burger came with. I will say it's outrageous to charge that much for a side of fries. Even when costs are up. I ended up ordering their Rookies Housemade Burger w/o cheese and tomato. I guess I could have had cheese. Tomato doesn't belong in anything but salsa and ketchup. Honestly, the burger wasn't bad. However, I was disappointed with the soggy fries. I would be upset if I paid $9.00 for soggy fries. I did notice that more people were drinking beer here than ordering a cocktail or food. Overall, I wasn't super impressed, but I will try this place again. I'll likely order something else. Overall, the speed of the service was mixed, but my bartender was extremely friendly. I felt comfortable there. My burger was fairly good, but unfortunately the fries were soggy. There's no excuse for soggy fries. If you find yourself near the Rookies Sports Lodge, it's a comfortable environment, but don't expect the best food. Maybe just order a beer.

TL;DR, I miss seeing Sandie and Tanisha here, but the bartenders are awesome people and you should just start coming here because it's a fantastic local watering hole.

Not only that, they were openly laughing, mocking, and disrespecting Arsenal fans when we conceded goals. That's completely unacceptable for a supporters club. I've been to Sacramento Gooners and other Arsenal clubs, and none of them tolerate this kind of behavior. There's a clear difference in standards. I've followed the Silicon Valley Gooners owner and I know they claim to love Arsenal and football. But honestly, this feels more like a business focused on profit than a community built on passion. Very disappointing.

It's a small place but has indoor & outdoor eating. Lively (Latin?) music & an extensive menu. If you have a large party or are with picky eaters, this place has it all.

The chorizo & eggs weren't overly greasy & the tortillas were good. My partner ordered the steak sandwich. 4.5/5 Flavor was amazing. The steak was a little chewy. The sauce on the side complimented it very well but not necessary as the flavor of the steak was great by itself. I ordered a strawberry mimosa, as well. It was really lacking for me.
