    Sports bar with Indian Food, if that is what you are looking for, you are at the right place. We got the Gobi 65, Kebab Combo and Paneer 65(to go) and hefe. Gobi and Paneer were on the spicier side but were delicious. Kebab's tasted great as well.

    Cajun Pasta with Shrimp

    We dined in during their second day of business for 'linner'. Granted it was not busy, the service was great. Our waiter was attentive and welcoming. The menu is brief and seems like an American/Indian fusion. We had vegetable Samosas to start--they rocked! Main course was cheeseburger, Cajun pasta with shrimp, butter chicken, and kids chicken strips. Everything was tastier than anticipated with lots of flavor and perfectly prepared. They also have a large selection of beer on tap with 8, 16, 24, and 32 ounce pours to choose from. Prices are quite reasonable. Ambience is upscale sports bar (lots of tvs) meets cozy cocktail bar. We will be back.

    I've been here a couple of times, and this is a great place to hang out in Frisco. However, when we tried to order food at 10 PM, they told they couldn't make it, even though they say they're open until 11 PM. So, we ended up just having drinks with a couple of friends. We had tried the food here earlier, and it was good, but this experience was disappointing. This place has a great ambiance, and the service was good.

    WOW! POPPIN FLAVORS GALORE! Wifey and I were IMPRESSED with our food selections: Combo Kebab, Veg Momo, Chicken Basil Fried Rice! OUTSTANDING! Zoey and JL were fantastic with their service. HAPPY HOUR prices and specials were great as well! HIGHLY Recommended and will be back!

    TLDR - Enjoyable atmosphere yet lacked in service, even on a slow night. Food wasn't overwhelmingly good, but tasted fresh and were decent sized portions. Good place to bring a group of friends. I came here on a Tuesday night around 7:30pm and there was plenty of seating. We weren't greeted, but after asking the bar, we found out it's a seat yourself situation. The staff were all very friendly. The atmosphere is nice. It's spacious and set up for social meet ups with tables big enough for large groups. There are TVs spread throughout, but not all of them were playing something (maybe because they were slow?). Our server was sweet, but seemed a little unexperienced. They got our drink order wrong and we had to ask other people a couple of times to get us stuff like drink refills. With them being so slow, I would have expected more attention to detail. Once the food came, it tasted fresh. The person I was with loved their dish, but I thought my tikka masala was just okay. It had an overpowering taste of onion that took away from the flavors and spices I usually enjoy in a tikka masala. The naan tasted fresh but was a little more crispy and thin versus the fluffy and soft texture I'm used to. I would definitely come back and try other dishes in the future since one of my close friends really enjoys this place. Parking: parking was a little tight on a Tuesday night, so I imagine on the weekends it might be hard to find parking.... So plan ahead.

    This place is an interesting theme. An Indian restaurant mixed with a sports bar. Very large location, well decorated. The Indian food is good but they don't know how to make simple drinks (they're an Indian restaurant vs a bar). They have big TVs and a sports atmosphere but service is Indian. They should have bar service/personnel with Indian food but not the other way around.

    Kabob Indian fusion with hazy accompaniment
    Chris D.

    Got the happy hour beer and Indian fusion kabobs. Loved it! Super flavorful and the chicken was cooked to a 10! Juicy, hot, blackened. They mint chutney was spectacular. Fresh lemon especially present. I'll keep coming back.

    This is our nachos with the big pile of cheese that was not even heated up.

    Do not come here. The service was very slow. The nachos came cold and the cheese was not even melted. Very disappointing experince and we will not be back.

    Rotate Bar & Kitchen was amazing. Their starters were great and we enjoyed the mixed drinks as well. The owner came up us and wanted to make sure you night was well so service was an A+ They have all the UFC fights so if you have some friends and want some drinks, this is the spot!

    My husband and I were excited to try this new place out and I will say it was nothing but disappointing. We ordered to go and what we got was food we couldn't even eat (see pictures). We ordered chicken tikka and rotate combo kebabs. The kebobs were so burnt that we couldn't tell the what flavor was what because all we tasted was burnt chicken. We also didn't get the mint chutney. Further, we ordered mild chicken tikka. We got 3/4 of the container full. WTH? For the price $18) that's all we got. In addition, it was so damn spicy we could barely eat it even though we asked for mild. Save yourself the trouble and go elsewhere. This place was terrible.

We had reservations but there was no major crowd at 5:30. The place is contemporary, white tiles, brass finishes. Fully stocked bar. Nice big windows. Started with a Rail District cocktail that was really good. Finished with a Last Word which had a strong licorice flavor (not my fav) but the cherry at the bottom was great! We split the SPREADABLE WHIPPED LEMON BASIL GOAT CHEESE. Loved this. But note to the Chef or food prep - the toast crackers had so many holes in the bread, there was NO surface for the spreadable. Pieces of toast were basically outer crust and the inner area of bread had 90% giant holes. It was comical. Whoever plated this should have been more selective. My wife had the Salmon and I had the steak. The steak had a large pad of delicious blue cheese and butter on top of it, that slowly melted over the steak and potatoes. That was special. Endive salad was pretty dry, very little dressing. So I mixed it in with the potatoes and cheese/butter.

I say approximately because we live about a 10 minute drive and we left our home about 6:20, but I digress. Upon our arrival we were seated and provided with water and menus. The business was not that crowded at this time and several tables had already been served or had their respective drinks. At 6:40 when we had no additional contact with the wait staff that seated us or any other staff. There were two bartenders and to table wait staff. The bartenders were making drinks while the wait staff appeared to be behind the counter and occasionally seating newer customers. At 6:40 my wife was ready to leave, I told her I would give them to 7:00, at 6:59 our waitress came back to our table, the first time since she sat us. She took our drink order as well as our dinner order. At approximately 7:05 I saw the bartender making our drinks and place them at the end of the bar. During this time I believe that our wait staff was preparing one of our food items while the second wait staff was serving some customers in her are or taking orders. At 7:12 I went to the end of the bar to get our drinks but there was no glass for the wine as the bartender poured it out in a small carafe. So I left them at the bar. Mat 7:15 our waitress came staff got a wind glass and poured the carafe of wine into the glass at the bar and then brought the drinks to us. Approximately 7:25 our meals arrived. Again, the food was good.

They were not only beautifully crafted but absolutely delicious--each sip had us dreaming of swaying palm trees, ocean breezes, and a Hawaiian getaway. We loved both the Mai Tais and the Beachy Bookkeeper! We decided to share a few appetizers. The Meatballs al Forno was my favorite...packed with flavor and perfect for enjoying with friends over drinks. The Heirloom Tomato Burrata was okay however, the tomatoes didn't seem ripe and were hard and chewy. The Lobster in a Jar was tasty - on the pricey side if you ask me though... One of my favorite things about this spot is the ambiance. The lighting is low (and by low I am flat out dark where you almost can't see your hand in front of your face), creating a dark, cozy, and intimate atmosphere that makes it easy to relax and unwind after a long day. Whether you're catching up with friends, enjoying a date night, or simply looking for a place to escape for a few hours, the vibe here is spot on. The service was fantastic as well. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed, which only added to the experience. Tiki Tuesday has officially become one of my favorite weekly traditions. Great drinks, delicious appetizers, wonderful service, and a cozy atmosphere--what more could you ask for? I'll definitely be back next Tuesday for another little island escape. Where's my grass skirt and coconut bra??? Mahalo for a great evening!

A large table in the middle of the bar was filled with children sitting on their iPhones while waiting for a private party to finish in another room. Meanwhile, paying adult customers who had come in to have drinks had nowhere to sit. What was frustrating was that the staff allowed the group to occupy one of the main tables in the bar instead of asking them to wait in the private room where their party was being held. The bar was busy and several groups of adults were left standing while a table of kids took up prime seating. It felt poorly managed and honestly a bit strange to walk into a bar late on a Saturday night and see a table of children taking up space while adult guests were trying to find somewhere to sit.

Ain't going to lie, I was lowkey wanting to head within the visinity afterwards because I was still hungry. That's what I get for splitting the portions! The menu is eclectic complete with girl's night out charcuterie option! The bottom level seating between sectioned bar and tables has no distinction. If casual cozy is what you want, then dine here. The jazz band was a blend of neosoul meets old school jams. If you knew, you knew. I felt sexy, cool, calm and collected. Not bad for a Wednesday night!
