    No food sold here, just drinks. You don't come here to have a sit down fancy dinner & dance. The…read moreplace is old & dingy, inside & out, & you can smell old cigarette likely from the old walls & carpet. However, people (21+) come here to hang out, sing, & drink, & this place serves its purpose. There's no drink menu, but prices are not bad for cocktails $5.99-$7.99. They did taste somewhat watered down. The bartenders were pretty efficient & responsive. $5 cover charge for karaoke was automatically charged when you open your tab. Free karaoke on Wednesday. This is why it's 4 stars - the 3 karaoke screens, space, sound quality, & mics. Ppl come here to sing and have fun & they do!! The DJ is very efficient & responsive to song requests. People kept coming even after midnight & everyone was just having fun! After a while, you don't notice the old cigarette smell anymore... lol. I have never seen so many ppl of all ages who actually came to sing & most were pretty good at it! We heard songs from almost all genres. The "spontaneous" decor, with no artistic values, is actually funny. So, it was absolutely worth what we went there for!

    It's a dive so expect less Or have none... Rude staff caters…read moreto local regulars instead of welcoming new patrons. Management birddogs guests, especially at the restrooms...and they will call nearby establishments when you leave if they didn't care for your group. Definitely not a hospitality concerned business And they will probably take this review as a compliment. Save your $ and effort. FTW has a wealth of inspiring and enjoyable establishments that are welcoming. Try the Showdown!

    Saw this place in a feed somewhere. It's a bit off the path for me, but I wanted to check it out…read more Went in during the 2025 NFL playoffs to catch a couple games and check the place out. Have been back since then. Talk about your corner hole in the wall type places. It's located in the middle of an L shaped strip building. Inside is clean, and spacious. Nothing fancy here, but plenty of tables and a few booths. They have a covered outside patio, which might even be fully enclosed, with some pool tables. The bar location is on the back wall, with lots of seating. Full bar, with a reasonable amount of draft beers, and several good ones along with the normal commercial swill. I sat at the bar both times, and got great service. First time I did the usual and checked out the salsa and queso. Both were good and didn't taste like pre made stuff. If it was, well they picked a couple of winners. The serving was more than ample, more then I could eat over the course of the visit. Second time I went back, I was going to make a point to try the onion rings since they looked so good in the pics. As I was looking at the menu I noticed they had a Montecristo sandwich. As I've mentioned before, I have yet to find anything that even remotely comes close to the holy grail of MC sandwiches, the one and only made by Bennigan's. Of course, I ordered it, and the onions rings. I'm happy to say the MC here is the closest I've ever come to find. It was really good, and the jam served with it was also pretty dead on. It was a little nasty like it should be, but not as greasy as it should be, and I enjoyed the hell out of it. The onion rings were really good, even if the batter was flaking off a bit. Anyway, I like the place, wish I could drag myself out more. Been customers here every time I've been, but not as many that should be. They also have a digital jukebox so if you're here and ever hear something bizarre playing, it's probably me. Service and staff have always been very good. They know how to make a pretty good margarita as well, and prices are very good.
