Cute little place tucked away in Brandon. Says it's a lounge but it's more of a a bar where the…read moreservers dress in bottle girl attire. They say they have 'house/well' liquor.....they actually didn't have liquor at all. It was all wine based. They did have a cocktail menu, but they weren't very knowledgeable outside of that list. The food menu was in Spanish. I'm assuming it was Dominican food. Idk. We googled a lot and what I ordered I thought was gonna have plantain in it. I was pleasantly surprised. It was a bed of fries that looked like it had picadillo, cheese, mayo and ketchup on it. It wasn't bad and the portion was huge. It DID taste better once I took it home and baked it. The 'DJ' was one of the servers. So when a song ended it did stop abruptly until she switched tracks. It was VERY loud. Overall it wasn't bad. Just not what we were expecting at all.

Back in the day you'd get an all you can drink wristband for $20 and they had an amazing little hidden nightclub upstairs. It was always a great time. The good ole days can't last forever. Went with a small group on a Friday night to celebrate a birthday. $20 cover for men, $10 cover for women (cash only). Security folks were real cool and we were inside after a short wait in line (maybe 2-3 minutes). Once inside the vibes were chill, the music seems catered to an older 40s+ crowd, but I'm knocking on the door of 40 so that was fine for me. What wasn't fine though is how bad the service is, one of the bartenders must have been on pills or something because she was the slowest I've ever dealt with, I'm talking 5 minutes for her to make 2 simple drinks. She also skipped over my group to help someone who walked up that was her friend. We got our drinks and found a table outside. Spent probably an hour here, the vibes outside were what you expect from most bars like this in Tampa. Very few people dancing or having a good time, most are standing on the wall trying to look cool or scrolling their phones. The DJ wasn't the problem, the crowd was. Food was pretty bad as well. They should just hire some food trucks, the wings were disrespectfully bad.
