    Some bourbon at the bar
    Brian V.

    4++ A great neighborhood tavern / dive bar that feels like it's been around for a long time and one of those type of places where the vibe is that this is a local favorite. The service was quick and friendly as I sat down at the bar. Pretty solid spirits and beer selection, especially for the size of the space. The prices were more than reasonable so I ordered a bourbon or two neat while killing time here and the Dodgers postseason was on the television. Just a side note...this was the game where Freeman got the grand slam in extra innings! :) I was meeting up with a friend for dinner in the area and I got to the area a little early. This place popped upon my radar when I was looking for somewhere to kill a little time. I'm so glad I found this place. I found parking right across the street pretty easily on a Friday night.

    Great place to bring adult children. Ha ha.

    Home away from home!!! Service is awesome. Makes you feel like family. Love love love it. My only go to dive bar. Always see regulars who are all good people!!

    Apple is a very charming mixologist that makes hanging around a bunch of dudes fun lol. Great place to grab a drink and relax for a bit.

    Amazing!!! Great service!!! The owners love their patrons!!!! They are not judgmental at all or do not discriminate against anyone that doesn't belong there! The greatest place ever!

    What time does the music start?

    Wednesday night 9 PM Friday and Saturday 9 PM

    Does anyone know if they charge extra at night? I've been there with a friend and were charged an extra .50 per drink after the shift change. I noticed the bartender at night charging us extra twice now.

    Lance H., we noticed that too. Our second round was a little more than the first round, but it was too loud with the band playing to discuss with the bartender. Our second round was $1/drink more.

    Does anyone (horseplayers, drinkers) remember the bar that was across the street from infield parking, on Colorado Place in the 70s and 80s? Rumored to be a hangout of trainers, jocks and agents.

    One place around there was Marty's Westerner.

    Are you reopening now that we're in yellow tier?

    As of 6/1/2024, Post-COVID, the bar is currently open for business.

    “The house band "Priests of Love" rocked the place with my favorite Zep song and Bob the bartender is friendly.”

    Over the weekend, I visited this establishment with another person whose debit card was somehow…read morelost while in the bar's possession. The establishment successfully charged their card but when it came time to return it the card was nowhere to be found. What happened afterward is what troubled me most though. Rather than taking responsibility...offering meaningful assistance or even demonstrating genuine concern....we were told that they "might have given his card to someone else," that "there was nothing they could do," and most astonishingly... that "it sucks, but it happens". But losing someones debit card while it is in your care should not simply be dismissed as something that "happens". We contacted the business through multiple platforms. We returned in person the following day to see whether the card had been found. At every opportunity we hoped someone would take ownership of the situation and make a sincere effort to help resolve it..that did not happen. And there is another piece of this experience that I cannot comfortably ignore. The person I went with was a person of color. Afterward I read other reviews describing troubling experiences at this establishment involving people of color. I cannot claim to know what motivated the way my compatriot was treated and I will not make an accusation I cannot prove. But when a pattern begins to emerge businesses should be willing to examine it rather than dismiss the people raising concerns. Ultimately this is about something very simple... dignity, accountability and the way we choose to treat one another. Mistakes happen...cards get misplaced...employees make errors but character both individual and institutional is revealed in what happens next. A business cannot always prevent a mistake but it can choose whether to respond with responsibility, compassion and respect. In this case that opportunity was there repeatedly. Unfortunately though this establishment chose not to take it. At the very least they could have offered to reverse the charge on their card to compensate for the mistake. I hope management takes these concerns seriously...not simply because of one lost debit card, but because every person who walks through the door deserves to know that if something goes wrong, their concern will matter, their property will matter, and they will be treated with the basic dignity and respect every customer deserves.

For appetizers, we ordered the fried calamari with the dipping sauce, which was delicious. I also had a sangria, and it was so refreshing! For our meals, I ordered the Pan Roast with chicken and sausage, served with white rice. It was so flavorful and came with a generous portion. I ended up sharing it with my son because there was so much food! My husband and my son both ordered the jambalaya, and we all really enjoyed our meals. Everything was delicious and satisfying. The customer service was excellent. The staff were very attentive and kept checking on us to make sure we had everything we needed and that we were enjoying our food. That always makes a dining experience even better. The restaurant itself is cozy and nicely decorated, with a DJ playing music. The music was more for the younger generation I'm definitely old school! but it still added a fun atmosphere to the evening. The decor is really nice, and I especially noticed how clean the bathrooms were, which is always a big plus for me. Overall, we had a wonderful birthday dinner, enjoyed the food, and felt very well taken care of. Definitely a place we would come back to!

Not knowing how busy the restaurant would be on a Saturday night, I made reservations. We dined on the earlier side, and probably could have just walked in. We ended up getting some of the sharables, which was great. I love that their happy hour is available in the entire restaurant. Our server was Shanee, and she was extremely helpful and friendly. Since it was our first visit, we had a few questions and she was able to guide us along. Another person that helped us was Veronica, who was equally helpful and friendly. The food was really good, the service great, and the vibe was friendly. If I didn't live so far from the restaurant, I would go often.
