I heard this was a fun place to go from my friends in the neighborhood so we decided to meet up here one weekday night. The door guy carded us, luckily my AARP card was accepted. Sidenote: That card is impending. We arrived at about 7 and there were a couple people at the bar, but we heard it was also karaoke night so people were trickling in throughout the evening. Everyone was friendly and chatty. They have a decent selection of beer and spirits, probably a little something for everyone. I learned that there is a jukebox and you can buy music on an app. This definitely kept the vibe interesting. Lighthouse was a fun night and I'm sure we'll be back again.

The service has consistently been exceptional, and I particularly appreciate their impressive bourbon and whiskey selection. Over the years, I've visited for everything from informal business discussions to evenings spent with close friends. The intimate lighting, softly glowing candlelight, and thoughtfully curated ambiance create a warm and sophisticated atmosphere. Combined with a moderate noise level that allows for comfortable conversation, it's an ideal setting for both meaningful catch-ups and professional engagements.

Tucked away on the Westside of downtown, this place is a true hidden gem, nestled in a well-established neighborhood. This past Mother's Day, I stopped by for a Sunday Funday, and wow...what a vibe! The front door was decked out in this festive, colorful "fiesta" style that immediately set the tone. The bar was buzzing with energy, cocktails flowing, close friends laughing, and yes... karaoke in full swing. One of the best surprises of the night? Running into Stephanie behind the bar. She's one of those bartenders who makes everything feel easy and fun. We ordered Mexican Martinis made with top-shelf tequila (Stephanie hyped it up as an award-winning drink and she wasn't wrong!). I also tried the Melon Margarita, which was super refreshing. The space itself has gotten some upgrades since my last visit--both inside and out. They mentioned this was actually one of their last nights open before closing for a two-week remodel. They're adding a garage door to open up the patio to the inside, and I'm already excited to see how that transforms the vibe. Later in the evening, we ended up enjoying a few cigars on the patio/lounge side, which honestly pairs really well with the chill, open-air setup. And I have to give a shoutout to the AMI jukebox; c we chose a solid mix of 80s hits and sophisti-pop. The night ended with karaoke... and here's the wild part: I actually participated. I never do karaoke, but this night? Something about it just clicked. It had been a while since I'd had a night that fun. Can't wait to come back after the remodel. Chiflada's definitely still has that magic.

However, this was convenient for my friend as he lives across the street from this place. Now, past the back story and on to the real story... When we came into the bar, the place was empty, with the exception of a few locals. As my friend and I approached the bar, we were greeted warmly by the bartender. I ordered my 'usual' (double Hendricks and tonic) and my friend, his usual (pineapple and vodka). The bartender nailed both of the drinks as it relates to ratio. The music in the place was at a tolerable level, which was great as we could hear ourselves talk without having to yell. The bar itself is dark, which I am sure only enhances the effects of those who tend to wear beer goggles. Aside from the low light, the smell of this place is rather musty and not in a good way. I suppose if one drinks enough, the smell won't bother you. The four-star rating here is warranted for the friendly service, but the dive bar/ karaoke bar could use some freshening up.
