This pool room and restaurant stands in a class of its own, not just as a place to play or dine,…read morebut as a complete experience built around quality, community, and consistency. From the moment you walk through the doors, it's immediately clear that this is not a typical establishment trying to get by on appearances--it delivers substance at every level. Start with the atmosphere. The patrons and staff set the tone, and here that tone is unmistakably positive. People are welcoming without being intrusive, friendly without being artificial, and professional without feeling stiff. That balance is rare. You don't feel like an outsider, even on your first visit. Instead, there's an underlying sense that this is a place where people genuinely enjoy being--and that matters the most. Then there's the food, which frankly outperforms expectations for a venue that could have coasted on its recreational appeal alone. It hasn't. The kitchen clearly takes itself seriously, and the results show. Winning three regional awards isn't luck--it reflects consistency, execution, and a refusal to cut corners. The menu offers standout dishes that would hold their own against dedicated restaurants, not just "good for a pool hall," but legitimately among the best in the area. Now to the core attraction: the pool tables. This is where the establishment separates itself from the competition decisively. High-quality equipment isn't optional here--it's foundational. The sixteen 9-foot Diamond and Diamond Predator tables signals that this place understands what serious players expect. These tables are meticulously maintained, level, clean, and responsive. Casual players will enjoy the experience, but seasoned players will immediately recognize that this is a venue designed with them in mind. Maintenance extends beyond the tables. The entire facility reflects attention to detail. Cleanliness, organization, and upkeep are clearly priorities, not afterthoughts. There's no sense of neglect or slow decline that plagues so many similar businesses. Instead, everything feels intentionally cared for, which reinforces trust in the overall operation. Location matters, and this one is hard to beat. Situated in a safe, upscale southside area, it removes the hesitation some people have about visiting billiards venues. You're not second-guessing your surroundings--you're focused on enjoying your time. That alone broadens the appeal, especially for families. And that brings up another critical point: this is genuinely a family-friendly environment that includes a youth league. The friendliness is not in a forced or watered-down way, but in a way that makes people of different ages comfortable sharing the same space. That's difficult to execute, and even harder to sustain, but it's clearly part of the core philosophy here. Finally, the owner, Thomas Dorsey, deserves mention--not as a token nod, but because leadership sets the ceiling for everything else. His reputation for being genuinely kind and approachable isn't just a nice detail; it explains the culture. Places don't accidentally become welcoming, well-run, and respected. That starts at the top. If you're looking for a place to pass time, you have options. If you're looking for a place to consistently enjoy yourself, improve your game, eat well, and build real connections, this is where you go.

We've been regular patrons for 16 years. It's almost a second home since our condo doesnt have room…read morefor a table. My husband and I play virtually every day. The food is great - burgers are the best. They also have some very creative specials. Stop in for lunch and you'll have 2 hours free pool!

The service was impeccable. Our waitress was very welcoming and attentive. I've never encountered a…read morefriendlier waitress. I had the Pad Thai add beef and it was delicious. I could eat it every day. My cousins had the drunken noodles and crab fried rice. We also had the veggie gyozas and fried Crab Rangoon. I wish the crab rangoon was crispier, but it was still good. MPM is a very cute space. I love the design of tiki bars and I think it's the best place for a first date or girls day out. I will be returning to check out their happy hour and specialty cocktails.

We were in the area for our anniversary and found this tiki bar (we LOVE tiki bars lol), so of…read morecourse we had to stop in. At first, I wasn't completely sold after looking at the menu as I didn't immediately see anything I wanted to eat as most tiki bars we have been to are more on the dive bar side so regular bar foods. So, the plan was to grab a couple drinks and find dinner somewhere else nearby. I am so glad my fiancé talked me into staying because this place absolutely knocked me off my feet. -I highly recommend the Nuclear Hawaiian and the Hello Kitty!!!! When we mentioned we weren't sure about the food, the bartenders jumped right in with recommendations and suggested the calamari and crab rangoon and they were spot on! When the food arrived, everything was perfectly cooked. The calamari was tender with a great texture, and the crab rangoon was crisp with amazing flavor. I went from I am not hungry to I could eat multiple plates of the same thing. We ended up staying for hours watching college football and mingling with some of the regulars. The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly and we genuinely had such fun conversation with people around us. We even heard from several folks that this place really comes alive during karaoke nights. At one point an older heavyset lady who we later found out was one of the cooks came out to chat with people. She was checking in to make sure everyone liked their food and catching up with the regulars like family. it really showed how much the staff cares about the people that walk through the door. MPM Tiki Bar feels like a true local gem with great drinks, delicious food, and a staff that makes you feel welcome from the moment you sit down. I honestly wish I lived closer because I would be here multiple times a week. if your anywhere near this restaurant, dont skip this spot trust me!

When I was in town a year ago, this place was a huge hit, but as of a couple days ago when I…read morewent... not so much. It took over 20 minutes for our waitress to come over and greet us, and that wasn't even to take our drink orders. It was so long that we debated leaving, however we remember how good it was, so decided to stick the wait out. I should've taken the nearly empty restaurant as a sign. That's was my mistake. Might've been one of the longest meals of my life. The staff- who claim to be short staffed (which could very well be, I'm not downplaying that), however they frequently stood in front of the TV watching whatever sports game was on it... interesting. When we tried to get our waitresses attention (multiple times this occurred), we got a nasty side eye and she walked away and ignored us (lovely ). When we did finally get our meals, items of it were cold or incorrect (shoutout my mashed potatoes which were physically hard). With that being said, the wings were good, would recommend those if you're going here. Don't order the tacos on the other hand... elote corn was obviously frozen- gross. Other items of the meal you could tell were previously frozen too. I will say they offered us a complimentary dessert which was nice, I was just really disappointed with this experience overall. In my opinion this restaurant needs to be renovated and menu needs to be cleaned up (and the freshness of the food should be revalued), this place is going downhill and experience reflects that.

This is one of the best, most affordable, quick lunches in Innsbrook! The service is lovely and the…read moreatmosphere is nicer than one of the neighboring fast food places. Food comes out quickly and their burger deals are a steal! Where else can you get a burger and fries at lunch for 10 bucks?

Can't in good faith recommend this location. The service is extremely slow, my food was burnt, my…read morepartners burger tasted like dish soap and the workers here did not seem to know what to do to rectify the situation. No one was available to help and we had to find and flag someone twice, once to be seated and then to try to figure out when our food was coming. We were sat for 2 hours and visited by our server all of 3 times. We only ordered a water, Dr. Pepper and two entrees which took 40 minutes to come out. As mentioned in other reviews, the selection of games is a lot smaller than other locations, some of the games are great but will malfunction often which makes it hard to play. The restaurant needs work don't waste your time it took me 2 hours for a dr. Pepper, two burgers, one being burnt, the other tasted like dish soap and then had to wait another 40 minutes for them to remake it to go in an empty restaurant. I'd recommend just visiting a D&B when traveling or patron a different entertainment center.

Probably one of the most underwhelming d&bs I've been to. Maybe it's because I'm from New York but…read moreit was so small and just felt gross. There weren't a lot of games and I hated how I had to walk around with a glass (made out of glass) around all the children and they refused to give me a plastic cup. Also the fighting game didn't even work so they just took our credit and it didn't work.
