    Prime Rib on Tuesdays, perfectly prepared at med-rare
    Tim H.

    This was my first visit. Don't let the external facade fool you. The food and drink inside are excellent! We came for Prime Rib night -Tuesday. Great cuts cooked to the ideal medium rare. Table service was very good and the bartender knows his business well - a number of old fashioneds and an espresso martini were enjoyed by all. They have a pretty solid selection of high end bourbons. As far as I am concerned, this is the nicest restaurant in the Port Arthur area. It's a little pricey but certainly worth it. Great deserts, I had the crème brûlée and I very much recommend you do too. I hope to return again soon!

    Half fried chicken order

    The fried chicken was really good very crispy . All the sides were on point . Our server was attentive . I love the updates of the place.

    Crème brûlée and banana pudding
    Kaitlin L.

    The service is top notch! I love the dark, quiet setting! The food is fantastic! I recommend the ribeye and scallop potatoes! The bread is so good too! And the desserts are massive!! Perfect for a date night.

Three employees looked at us as we wandered around wondering where we could sit. Finally, two proceeded to head to a table and clean it off for us. Our appetizers (cheese curds and fried pickles) came out in a timely manner. Both were really tasty! Then my daughter's meal arrived shortly after. The rest of us waited a little bit past 15 minutes for our food. By the time ours came out, she was finished eating. Her food was good as well as two other meals in the group. Our drinks were not refilled either until one of us spoke up. Unfortunately, two of us got stuck with overcooked and very dry meals. The picture attached is supposed to be a patty melt-hardly any onions and one small slice of cheese. If you want a nice meal during the middle of the day, there are plenty of other options.

As if it was crazy to try to get someone's attention when you've been standing there with no service for that long. Will never be back. Horrible service for a trashy bar. Super disappointing for my first time visiting this establishment.

    My experience at Locals Pub was so horrific I'm debating on whether or not to press charges…read more I understand the establishment closes at 2 & I arrived at 1:15, 45 minutes before closing. They were probably ready to go home & had a long night. I don't negate that at all. But if the door says they close at 2, I would never in a million years expect to be quite literally THROWN out of the door. Miss Jennifer, larger, older, slightly boyish lady in charge of security I assume (also have seen her in charge of the karaoke list as well), was VERY rude & quite frankly, disgusting, at the door. She informed me they were closed, even though it was 45 minutes before the posted closing time on the door. I asked to use the bathroom, at which point she put her hand on my shoulder & quite literally PUSHED me out the door. I was completely thrown off by the disgusting & abusive unprofessionalism. So, very annoyingly, I admit, I knocked on the door (calmly & collected). She opened the door & I tried expressing my discomfort of how she handled me, at which point she put BOTH of her hands on me & that is something I CANNOT understand nor feel like should be allowed. Miss Jennifer has been absolutely unprofessional & dangerous & I quite honestly hope something is done about her behavior. The establishment as a whole has been so accommodating & comforting. My experiences there have always been pleasant. Miss Jennifer is a danger to the brand.

The food is delicious!! I had The Sheriff skillet and it was amazing. Very well seasoned shrimp, chicken and beef. The chicken was not dried out and cooked perfectly.

There's also a full bar. To top it all off, the prices are fantastic!

I had to microwave it just to eat it. The cheese enchiladas were the biggest letdown. The cheese tasted like straight-up yellow American cheese. If I'm ordering cheese enchiladas at a Mexican restaurant, I'm expecting something a lot better than that. What really gets me is there are several other Mexican restaurants right around this place, yet they're still serving food like this. Everything tasted low quality and like it had been sitting out. I ate enough to take the edge off, but I'm probably going to order food again later because this meal was that disappointing. Definitely won't be back.

We have 2 pool tables, a Golden Tee, free Wifi, and Jukebox. Our pool tables are extremely well cared for, and sport Simonis 860 cloth, with new Belgian Aramith Premium balls. New rails are precision torqued for consistent action, and tables are leveled with a machinist level. We have plenty of great shooters willing to teach, and one table is projected to a 65" big screen. We host some of the best Amateur Pool Players Association teams in the area, are a Beaumont Best of Billiards venue, and are always looking for new shooters. Beginners are especially in demand, since the handicap system only allows a few high skill level players per team. If you want to learn the sport, this is the place.
