Cypress is under new management and reopened as of the end of June. Today is the first time I have…read morebeen back in since then. The place has been brightened up which is nice and the bathrooms have been mostly been updated. But the prices of alcohol have not only doubled but they got rid of one of their pool tables. The music had changed to more of what you would hear in a club and makes the floor vibrate. Their are more tables and chairs then they know what to do with. Because of all the new chairs and tables it makes it hard to shoot pool at all. If they rotated the pool table it probably would not be a problem. There was also a bartender that stopped in who continued to vape in the bar, but was not on the clock. And their were also customers vaping with no one stopping them. There was also a dog that was brought in who the bartender seemed to know because she squatted and greeted with lots of pets. I have no clue if she washed her hands after that, especially since they now serve chads pizza.

American Four of us…read morewere working in the area and wanted a decent dinner so we headed over to Whiskey Road. The place was medium full- that is to say, it was not totally jam packed. We got a table with no issue. Waitress arrived with and we got started with some drinks and apps. Honey garlic edamame was different and very good, queso dip was standard fare. For cocktails, we were all over the place: beers, wine and one guy had some whiskey. Frankly, I forgot what the others had but I ended up with a steak, which was fine. A second round of drinks and we were pretty much done with dinner - but we still had a decent amount of drinks left- and that is sort of when we started feeling rushed by the waitress. She asked a few times while we still had our entrees "if we wanted anything else" - which we felt was odd - it did not come across like "are you satisfied", it was more like do you want the bill? Weird vibe. We discussed it among ourselves that maybe she needed to get out and we were her last table but she came round again asking if we wanted the check and my buddy asked her is she was heading out and actually said no- she was there for a few hours more... so the whole thing was perplexing. Anyway, food was good- prices were average. Service was interesting. Maybe your experience will be better. Street parking

I opted for the classic martini as I've never had one before- let's just say that drink is for the brave only! My second drink was a peartini which was more my speed. The edible rose petals was a super cute touch. We ordered a couple of apps which was okay... we ordered food from the club door/attached to the lounge. The crab rangoon pizza is a must try and the fried calamari was pretty good too. The service was good, we had a good time. For a Saturday evening there was a good turn out of people. It was getting really lit at the club attached. I'll definitely go here again when I'm in town!
