Kinda shows why as soon as you walk in there's 5 men in their late 60's. I don't know if they're aiming for better business or not but they're absolutely failing. Expect even your dd to get Id'd at the pool table let alone the 19 year old kid you pulled up with ordering a drink cause ig dudes okay. If you wanna come here be sure to expect the lightest of drinks poured

As soon I walked in I was AMAZED with how beautiful the place was. The fish tank, how friendly the…read morebartenders were, the paintings... Then I started hanging out playing a game of bags when I realized I couldn't even hear myself think. Their mix drinks were very tiny but the bartenders did a great job walking around picking up empty drinks and asking if anyone needed anything. I will change my stars if they decided to lower the music... Dive bar? Arcade? Night Club? Disappointing

I've been by on a couple of different occasions, both on wing night. As others have indicated, the…read moreservice is spotty and it definitely depends if you're a regular or local. Hard to flag down the bartender when she's yacking it up with her buddies, doing shots of their own. I will say this though, the place has unbelievable wings and would highly recommend stopping by on whatever night of the week wing night is. Best wings around, hands down.

A regular spot for the locals. Has live bands usually every Saturday with a DJ usually on Friday.read more

There are QR codes on the bar for the beer menu. It isn't accurate, they're out of several. I was told by a staff member (again, it's hard to tell who fills what role so I'll just call them staff members from here on) that they are "locked out" of that account so I should check the board behind the bar. The board lists the flavor and usually the type of beer. It does not list the manufacturer or really any other details. At this point I ordered a beer and the chicken nachos. I received the beer promptly. I finished that one, then another. Still no nachos. After an hour+ and 3 beers, I cashed out and left. At least they never tried to charge me for the nachos. I witnessed numerous dishes returned to the kitchen. There were 2, sometimes 3 staff members for the entire bar and dining room. All were friendly but seemed inexperienced. I witnessed at least 2 on their phones at some point. Last but not least, the atmosphere. The place could be really amazing. When I was there, the bar was sticky. 3 of the lights above the bar were burned out and the fixtures, obviously intended for old looking filament bulbs had bright LEDs installed giving the ambiance of a hospital waiting room. The recessed can style lighting in the rest of the establishment wasn't much better. The stools at the bar are seriously worn. It's almost worth visiting for the spectacle...almost. Update: they did charge me for the nachos. I misread the receipt that night.

The atmosphere was good. We went to watch a band and it was also on a night that the civic center…read morehad an event so it was very busy and packed. We waited for a table for a bit and it was alright to wait because the band had started. We had an appetizer of fried pickles. They were delicious. I had the smash burger which was phenomenal. My husband had the pulled chicken and said it was alright, not great. The mixed drinks seemed watered down and the beer is in cans and bottles only. Or server was attentive. It was a $100 night with drinks, food and tip. Reasonable priced food and (several) drinks

I enjoyed the building itself with exposed brick, lumber etc. The staff was friendly, the place was VERY clean for a live music venue, and the food was fresh.

They are always amazing. The food has been good on some visits and absolutely terrible at other times. I know there is a new chef and a lot of new staff, so we are trying to be patient while everyone gets trained. I'm adding pics of the filet and ribeye we had right before Chef Chris' departure. Also, I would love to see some attention to the patio. It has amazing potential, and we absolutely love having dinner out there, but for a golf course and restaurant of this caliber, it could use some love. Updated outdoor furniture would be a great start!
