This is a nice place to see a band and visit with friends. There is two sides of this place, there…read moreis a bar in both sides but the band is in one side that is wide open and the other side is a bar and more seating for visiting. Drinks are reasonably priced and I believe there was free popcorn. There are a couple pool tables to use when the band is not playing and they are open for parties.

We came here to see a band we like (Sister Sarah)…read more This place is conveniently located just off the interstate and in a shopping center. We are told it used to be a bank, but we checked the vault and sadly no money was left there for us... There are multiple entrances to use - Front, back side... It looks like the locals use the front, and the band lovers use the other doors...just an observation. The bar is very large and double sided which makes it super accessible There is lots of seating and entertainment to be had. Darts, and Pool tables and televisions - they move the pool tables aside and cover them so the band can play and so there is more dance floor. They respectfully shut the music off and the TVs down while the band plays too - nice touch! We were able to walk up to the bar and get nicely priced drinks served very quickly despite how busy they were. All of the employees were very friendly and accomodating. Food looks like it is limited to the frozen pizza, but hey better than nothing. (There are multiple options just outside the front door if you want other food) The place is large and there is pent of room to accomodate a large crowd, and still room to dance! (Maybe next time) It is still obvious it used to be a bank, but it works for a bar. They should turn the Vault into a VIP room! We will keep an eye out for our favorite bands playing here. PRO TIP: Conveniently enough you can also get here using only back roads.

This place has everything! Pool tables, plenty of TVs, dart boards, two bars, two sets of bathrooms…read moreand an old vault. Yes, part of this place use to be a bank so the old vault is still there. We came out to see a live band and the acoustics were very good. We did bar service and that was good so no issues there. I am told they will be expanding to a food menu so at this time I cannot comment on table service or food. Looking forward to coming back to see how this place develops.

What exactly is this place? You decide…read more We were across the street for dinner and decided we should check this out while we were in town. Holy Smokes! We are glad we did - this was like a carnival ride meets dive bar, meets disco... This place is a lot of adjectives and too many for one review. What I will say is it is crazy and cool! We again sat at the bar where all our senses were being accosted by all the inputs! But it was fun. No place to look that I was not sure what I was seeing! Too much? Nah! It's great. The bartenders (Brian or Ryan and Taz?) Were great and funny - the personalities matched the vibe. No BS just fun and factual! Fast service with well made cocktails. We saw other folks order food and a pretty delicious looking pizza was delivered - not a frozen reheated, but looked fresh and delicious. (Gonna have to try that later) Honestly just check out the pictures - it's too much fun! We will be back for drinks and pizza! Pro tip - Remember where the doors are when you are sober - the decoration make them hard to find! (Front/ Patio and bathrooms) Also - not joking!

I have been to this place a few times and it is very entertaining. There are lots of stickers to…read moreread but not only that but the people (customers) are always friendly and willing to talk and have a conversation with everyone. This place gives off a happy vibe. There is a young and old crowd. There is usually several people here when I visit, I have only been here after 5:00. There is plenty of craft beer to choose from and a full bar. The food menu is limited and we had the pizza. It was really good, loaded! The table service is limited so expect to go the to bar for refills. This is a must visit if you are in the area. P.S. Good luck finding the bathroom with all the decorations.

Tito's Lounge is an absolute gem, but what truly made my night was my server, CJ! She was…read moreincredibly attentive, welcoming, and gave me the absolute best recommendations from the menu.

It was getting to be dinner time, so asked my wife to meet me here for my last stop. Every time we've stopped here, we have been impressed with the quality of the food and tonight was no different. I had already enjoyed some Happy Hour specials at another venue, but my wife hadn't yet eaten dinner. She ordered the Gyro & Fries (see picture) and as you might guess, I did try a couple of bites. We both thought it was a very good gyro and were delighted to see that it is the daily special each day from 11-2, so we will definitely be coming back for lunch some day.

Came in for a quick bite to eat but slow service prevented the quick part. However, the food was…read morepretty good. I had the French dip and there was plenty of beef. The fries were plain if you don't like seasoned. All other sides is extra $. Someone at the table ordered the plain cheeseburger with sweet potato fries. They said it was ok, nothing special. We both received plenty of fries which was nice. The place was loud but we were still able to hear each other at the table with no difficulty. There are several TVs if you are interested in seeing a game, it looked like every seat had a good view.

Disappointed. I really like the atmosphere here and the food has always been pretty good, and I'm…read morereally wanting to make this a more regular place, however this visit takes it down a notch. Smash burgers are a big deal right now, so a smash burger taco had great appeal. This was a burger patty cut in half and served on a tortilla. NOT appealing and disappointing to say the least. The server didn't follow up and ask how things were and the only time she asked to refill water was when we were done and she didn't ask if I wanted a 2nd beer so I didn't bother to order one.

I had asked her twice if they could turn the music down, which she did ask the guy behind the bar, I don't know if he was a bartender or a cook, but I heard him say what do they want, I've turned it down four times. Well, yes, I did overhear that I was sitting very clause to the bar. It was very rude of him, and I had been very kind and requested that the music be turned down some. The food was pretty good, I had the fig and creamy goat cheese flatbread. Overall, it might be a very good place for other people, rudeness is not acceptable.

While a bit of a hidden gem off of 86th Street, the building is modern, chic and inviting - with a large covered patio area connected to the north side of the building. The one negative is that the temperature is kept very cold inside, so consider bringing a sweater or light jacket to stay comfortable. Unfortunately, tonight was a bit cold outside, so it was a coinflip on which was better - we opted for the patio seating and the wind settled down during our visit to get quite comfortable. We started with a Cuban Martini and Sojito (see picture) along with an order of Bang Bang Shrimp (see picture) for an appetizer. We enjoyed the drinks and the Bang Bang Shrimp with the drizzled Yum Yum-type sauce was delicious! For our main courses, my wife ordered the Thai Pasta (see picture) and I opted for the Fig, Avocado and Goat Cheese Salad (see picture). As is our custom, we both shared bites from each of our plates and liked both of them very much - although the Thai Pasta definitely had a bit more 'kick'. We ordered the Tres Leches for dessert (remembering it from our last visit), but unfortunately found that they were sold out, so had to leave without dessert. If you are looking for a modern, unique, Asian fusion type restaurant in the Johnston area, Roots 95 won't disappoint.

*We did NOT eat here*…read more We came in after dinner for some drinks, and this was the perfect spot. We sat at the bar and had great service. The bartender let us try a couple of the unique local beers (specially a caramel apple one which was super interesting!). He let us know last call and didn't rush us out. They have a lot of good drink options, some cool beers, and plenty of wine to choose from. Perfect for a night cap!

The restaurant was empty apart from a guys at the bar saying h*m*phobic stuff all night. I got a spicy margarita and it was very poorly made, I do not suggest the jalapeño tequila. I had my margarita remade into mango and it was much better the second time but still very small. The food took forever to come out in an empty restaurant. The service on every level is astronomically slow. I am gluten free. The pizza is an average gluten free pizza. The toppings were inconsistent and overall it was just ok. My friends liked their food much better than me and would suggest the truffle fries and the chicken avocado sandwich.
