We arrived at the restaurant and the cashier helped us right away. We got our order in a brown takeout bag and grabbed a few of their bibs & gloves. The bag definitely felt heavy. They double bagged our order so it would not spill whatsoever. They also gave us a bunch of sliced lemons and two containers of salt & pepper. Let me tell you, these shrimps were BIG. They were very meaty and super flavorful. I adored the seafood boil sauce that it comes in because it had SO much garlic and I really liked how tasty this was. The shrimp absorbed all the flavor, but it did not stop us from dipping it in more of the sauce to make it even more tasty! We even squeezed some of the lemon into the bag as well. It is such a messy meal, but so fun if you're a seafood lover. I think it's worth trying if you have never tried a seafood boil before. This was more of a Vietnamese-Cajun styled seafood boil, so I found it to be even more tastier!

Man, what a gem this place is. First off, the agua de pina was so refreshing. You could taste the…read morereal pineapple juice and little pineapple chunks. For $8, you get a whole mug, ice cold, no need for a refill. The shrimp enchiladas were spectacular. They chop the shrimp small so you're not getting huge chunks of shrimp each bite and they top it with either red, green, or mole sauce. The ceviche was great. Great flavor, crunchy vegetables, and the portion was huge. But that's not the best part. I'm a sucker for good refried beans. Wow. Some of the best I've ever tasted. You can just tell they smash them fresh every morning. So I got to talking to the waiter, who was great by the way, and he said a while back they changed from lard to real butter in their beans and what a great change that was. The flavor is next level. The service, ambiance, and food were great. I'll definitely be back. Hope you try it too.

Used to love this place but there are some straight weirdos that come in this place. First couple times in there had a great time drinking and (or) singing. Last couple times had a group of ghetto ass dudes trying to hit on the girls we were with when they wanted to nothing to do with them. Also note to guys- Probably not gonna pick up many girls that have a full set of teeth with torn shirts and in sweat pants on a Sat. night. Last time in there drunk dude rolls up to me when I have a full beer IN MY HAND telling me that I stole his beer? WTF I just bought this bro and I dont drink other peoples beverages especially if its a bottled beer. Hey note to Tom Kat, get a security guard in this place and Jager is supposed to be cold (not room temp.) On top of that a jack and coke is 8 bucks for a hole in the wall? What a joke. Good riddance. read more

I just wrote a review a couple of min. ago and it was not sent they only want good reviews, and with the new jerk as a bartender you will not get a good review from me. This man is rude nasty and Tom where are you, I know Art can't work every night but all my friends have been thrown out because this guy says we need to respect him, where did he get this idea we are the customers, we pay his wages, this person is uneducated nasty person. He also likes to insult customers. I am not used to this kind of attitude I ran for city council, I am used to respect, what kind of place are you running. After 25 years of going to this bar now I have to put up with a pretty faced dummy? Tom there were four people at the Christmas party and I brought a bucket of chicken, for four people, Tom where are you? read more

Tomkat Lounge offers a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere, perfect for a laid-back night out. The ambiance is fun and welcoming, with eclectic decor that adds character to the space. The drinks menu features a variety of options, all of which are well-crafted and tasty. Whether you prefer classic cocktails or more adventurous choices, there's something for everyone here. One unique aspect of Tomkat Lounge is the clientele, who seem to add to the charm of the place. It's hard not to smile when you notice that everyone looks like they've stepped out of a video game. It adds a lighthearted touch to the overall experience. In summary, Tomkat Lounge is a great spot to unwind and enjoy good drinks in a fun atmosphere. Whether you're a local or just passing through, it's definitely worth a visit. read more

This place straight sucked ass! If you want some meth, look no further. If you want to feel not welcomed, come on down! Not even in the building and these drunk guys are saying they can't talk about drugs when people are walking by...obviously he said it loud enough when I was walking by. Ignored it, go inside place is packed with, you guessed it, more meth heads. I got my beer quick from some Asian dude which was cool, but where are the girls? Then within a minute of getting my drink some dumbass starts touching me and trying to high 5 me. Then he starts stumbling around to other people's tables acting like a jackass.

I can see why this bar is failing. People like Vanessa are the reason why this place is not what it could be not only is she rude but she's entitled as well. Idk if she thinks running a bar means she's special in some way but I would love to remind not only the bar but Vanessa that customers pay your bills. " you're lucky I'm letting you walk out" is crazy to say to a customer and you need to be fired immediately!!!! Also don't lie and say your wack of a karaoke starts at 9 when it starts at 10 to try to keep bodies in the bar it's pathetic and beneath the bar. read more

I actually drove out of my approach to visit a barkeep I knew from two or three years back... Just to discover she is never again utilized there. The bar is perfect... The lager was alright virus. I felt could be colder. Karaoke is never something worth being thankful for in my eyes or to my ears. Kindly don't butcher my main tunes. The area is kinda astounding. In any case... I may attempt again sometime in the not so distant future... In any case, not likely since that barkeep is gone at this point read more

Good place to go for karoake and that is saying alot. Most of the ones I have been to arent that fun, with way too drunk people horribly singing songs you have heard too much, and they all know each other which makes it hard for newcomers.

She was incredibly gracious, hilarious, attentive, and somehow always knew when we needed another drink before we even had to ask. She has that perfect personality for bartending - fun, engaging, and just the right amount of playful flirting that makes everyone smile while still making you feel like you're hanging out with an old friend.
