    My friend and I decided to check out Candela's to watch one of the World Cup matches here and grab a drink. Service was very slow to help, when we arrived at the bar. Plus, dude served our drink in a much smaller glass than the people next to us, when we ordered the same drink as them, sooo-WTF?!? After we finished our drink we bounced to another more lively bar where drinks and service was more top notch. No one really there, but volume was turned up so loud we couldn't really hear each other. Nice looking interior, small free parking lot.

    Eon was amazing!! It's always a good vibe here. Dj, all the servers are nice and friendly. Will recommend!!

    I have been to this bar twice so far. Both times it was a great experience. For food, this location does not serve food, but you can order food next door and they bring the food. Drinks are good and they made them fast. Bar tenders are nice and friendly. For ambiance, I would say this location is very clean and well maintained. There are TVs for game night I would say it's a great option. On the nights I visited they had DJ playing music, but it can be loud and makes it hard to have a conversation. For parking, this location has a parking lot shared with other businesses.

    Super cool spot to hang out , the micheladas are fire ! And honestly the bartenders are all a good vibe :) Beatriz in specific lol

    Good Service and great Palomas The bartender very nice lady Come to visit and watch the game with your friends

    Once again. The ladies behind the bar are amazing. You will not find a better bar in the valley.  Bar none! ( no pun intended)

    You will not find a better bartender! The ladies and gents behind the bar will always take care of you!

    Bad service bar tenders did not let us know that jute box was truenes down while the ey played their own music. Would not come back again.

    A damn good time awaits!

    This place is a little hidden gem for sports, drinks and a good fun joint. Staff is friendly and has a great vibe! Stop by for a drink, sports and an overall great time!

    Candelas Sports Bar is fairly new, they took over for the Witches Brew Bar that was in the space prior. I never got to see inside the Witches Brew but I do believe that the inside had been renovated and fixed up for Candelas and I was excited to stop by and see. My friend and I met up there for a drink in the early evening and staff was very friendly and welcoming. The bartender Diana frequently checked on us to see if we needed anything, and we had a nice conversation with her. There is a jukebox in the bar which I think you can play songs with your phone, but also they had Tvs going with music playing. I loved all the song picks. I had the Moscow Mule and my drink was perfectly made. I was told that they have a Latin Night (I can't remember if it's Fridays or Saturdays) and they have dancing! When we were leaving around 8pm we saw a DJ setting up. I took photos of the signs so everyone can see when they have their Happy Hour! In addition one of the most important things for me is that As a female sometimes I want to stop by somewhere to just have a drink without feeling akward or weird that I'm alone, let's say after a hard day of work, or just randomly to get out, and I do think Candelas is a safe space that I would be able to do this comfortably! I definitely Looking forward to going again in the future! Also at this time they only take cash or zelle, so come prepared with either of those!

    Love the vibe and the bartenders here, everyone is friendly to each other. Been coming here for the World Cup lately and loved every game that played especially since we all watched it on Telemundo and not Fox. Outside food is allowed regardless of next door or delivery which is perfect for me since I gotta have something, they offer peanuts and maybe the future some Cracker Jacks lol

    Not coming back for sure! Tejanos here I come.

But the inside is deceptively large with lots and lots of seating near the mini mini large screen TVs. There is a bar that serves hard liquor and several outside patios. The food is reasonably priced. Most entrées are under $15. And best of all they are dog friendly. You can actually bring your pooch inside the restaurant where they will offer you a bowl of water for your dog. The manager opened the door for me because I was hesitant to bring him in. I just wanted a bottle of water. But I was made aware that they are very dog friendly and dogs are happily welcome down the inside. They offer breakfast starting at 7:30 AM, which is perfect after a Walker run around the golf course. But they also have our food which is chicken nuggets, french fries, hamburgers, etc.. Someone in the kitchen is a little heavy-handed with the salt. So tell them to take it easy if you are salt sensitive like I am. The toast came with my breakfast and it was burnt. So I sent the salty eggs back with the toast and ask them to redo it. They redid the whole meal for me and it came back perfectly. I will be coming back here with some friends. This is gonna be my new hangout for the summer.

Plus we were meeting early which also happy hour was still happening. I think it's from 3-6. Even at 5 in the afternoon, there was no parking in the lot. And the residential parking was pretty much packed. As I had my little pup with me, we needed a table outside. It's been a while since I was seated outside. Usually it's been in the bar area. They have a back gate at the patio but it was locked. First off, the place was packed. It's been a while since it's been like that. Or maybe I've only been coming during happy hour. Also, it's somewhat seems to be a thing where you have to ask for the happy hour menus. Anyways, their items are pretty decent for prices. Drinks specials and some of the food items are worth it. We alway get a pitcher of beer for the table to share. Food wise, a couple of the ceviche. Either fish or shrimp and that's served with a tostada chip. For 12.00, it's pretty decent in size and quite tasty. Between the fish or shrimp, I prefer shrimp better. Also, two street tacos for 5.00 with many choices of protein. Lastly, the loaded fried nachos for 12.00. Let's say when they mean loaded, it was loaded. That too comes with your choice of protein which I went with the al pastor. The food was great. Reasonable price and well portioned. Plus the chips and bean dip to start off. They also accommodate some salsas with chips which is nice. Before it would alway be the bean dips and you would have to ask for the salsa. If you want fresh guacamole, they have someone that will prepare it table side to your liking. This visit, there was also the mariachi band walking around asking people if that wanted any requests. The service was great, the staffs all are amazing and friendly. Some familiar faces which is nice.

Untouched or updated from whenever construction was completed, it's got more Jerry-rigged piping and lighting and whatnot than MacGyver's play dungeon, but somehow it all works, and remains a great place to grab a shot or 12 if you're in Reseda. Famous for being cash only, and for pouring drinks stiffer than last week's cadaver, this unabashed dive bar attracts a crowd that can be friendly or fierce, depending on the time of day or the number of drinks they've consumed. But the staff is uniformly friendly (huge shout out to the always wonderful Rebecca), and, again, the generosity of the pours makes up for the other flaws in their flue. The walls are covered in more vendor-branded signs and mirrors than you can shake a swizzle stick at, and there are TV's playing the current games. They've got a great juke box, a pool table, several mechanical dart boards, and one of those old time puck slider boards -- so if you're looking to compete with your fellow flies, there's ample opportunity. No real food served here, but they've got plenty of snacks available for purchase to counteract the gargantuan pours, and people also bring in meals from the adjacent eateries. This is not the place you bring someone on a first date -- or a 50th -- but if you do bring in a mate, and they say, "hey this is fun," then you should start shopping for curtains.
