The Hookah is a little on the strong side however, enjoyed it and they have an extensive selection of flavors to choose from. My Coals were refreshed throughout the duration of our time at Mirage. The Food, drinks and service were okay and priced reasonably. The owner provided us all with free shots; which was extremely kind of him. Dress code varies and the DJ played a nice variety of music genres they had the crowd super lit. Overall I had a great time!

This business is under new ownership and is now called, 812 Lounge, and I have been there twice in…read moretwo weeks because I really enjoyed the food the first time I attended with a party of eight of us and I had the catfish and grits with a side of potatoes and scramble eggs. Also, I waited until dinner had came in so I can take home the crab balls and shrimps. They both were seasoned, lightly breaded, and deep fried to perfection. The Menu itself, which is broken down by Brunch on the weekend, Happy Hours during the week days, Appetizers, and Dinner and offer such a variety of dishes that I personally will give it like a 5 Star Restaurant quality. The ambience and service was good the first with some improvement needed with the second time being exemplary. This time I had the grilled salmon, mash potatoes, and asparagus, with half dozen of shrimps, which was $1per shrimp during Happy Hour along with offering $1 chicken wings. I haven't seen that promotion at any other establishment in a long time. My niece had the lollipop lamb chops, mash potatoes, and asparagus with loaded cheese fries with crab meat. I tried it and it was really good, so to the point, I'm going to order it the next time I attend for Happy Hours or Dinner. She really enjoyed her food and we both took home what we couldn't finish as the portion was definitely worth every cent.​ Oh, the presentation of each dish was well put together. I Love the flower touch. The second time I receive blue orchard, I believe that's what the flower was and different shades of blue is my favorite color so I appreciated even more. Lastly, I cannot wait until my next visit as I will like to try either the lobster and grits, crab cakes with a choice of two sides, or the lollipop lamb chops and mussels to go, lol. I highly recommend this establishment.

Went here this past Saturday for a fish fry…read more Parking: Residential Street and there's hardly any parking. Pack patience. Ambiance: ok. Service: The manager, a short woman with long weave, wasn't very nice. We waited a while before we were served our overpriced drinks. Food: The fish tasted fishy and was fried too hard for me. They had a DJ. I didn't see a jukebox. They had a pool table in the back. Overall, it wasn't a memorable time, coupled with poor parking, I doubt I would go back.

I wish I could give this place 5 stars but that's not happening! I like going here because there's…read moreplenty of parking and it has more room than North bowl. However the food is NOT worth a dime. I'm a foodie so that's important to me. My sister and I took my brother here for his bday and we spent over $300, how do you even spend that while bowling? I ordered two orders of the wings, two pizzas which taste like cardboard and an order of chicken tenders and tatter tots, it was like 9 tots, along with drinks(4 sodas) only three adult beverages...$268 like how???? Our server kept forgetting stuff like naps and straws, at one point I actually went to the bar to get napkins because I didn't want to feel like I was bothering her. Would I go back, of course, just don't eat anything from there unless you are desperate. Very clean and spacious. I will recommend if you go with a large group reserve two lanes.

On Thursday, May 15, 2025 I brought in a group of 41, which included 35 6th, 7th, and 8th graders…read morealong with their 6 teachers and they all had a blast! Our visit started with a nice greeting and excellent communication from managers Yady and Arturo, and continued with professional and efficient service from bowling shoe attendants Marco and Lynna, bartender Jackie and server Olivia. The students loved the mac and cheese and sliders of course, but nothing was better than the chicken nuggets! Being located upstairs and off by ourselves was aHUGE help in keeping them all ion one place with no interaction with the other, older visitors downstairs, so thanks for that! Finally, I would like to note as we prepared to leave I saw Manager Arturo dash past our group and out the front door and I figured maybe his car was being ticketed....only to find out he had run ahead of us to help the students cross the intersection of Swanson Street and Oregon Avenue. It's things like this that endear me to a tour venue!

We went for the DJ's set but will definitely not recommend this place.

Sometime, establishments appreciate service members sacrifice and give a few bucks off; however, the bouncer girl gave a stank face and said no. We were offended by the stank face and said she could have just politely said no and then another bouncer came over and tried to smooth things over. We were still going to go in but then when we were trying to see if we had enough cash for our group to pay I asked if they took card and then the stank- face girl aggressively pointed at the Cashapp sign. She used no words, just grunts and annoyed faces. Then more bouncers came over and aggressively stood there. I was appalled and we all decided to leave since we felt unwelcome. BTW, I was completely sober and our small group of 4 was no threat, so why the dirty stares? I get that bouncers are there for a reason, but if that's the face at your front door, they need some training on customer service. A smile and a warm welcome goes a long way. Also, $20 cover for a hookah spot?! I've never heard of that! It sounded arbitrary to me and shady that I would have to Cashapp it! We would have spent decent money there but unfortunately, we will never try to come back.

The entire experience was a 10/10. However, I do want to say that the manager they have there was extremely unfriendly/unwelcoming and I hope he won't be the reason people complain about this place. Other than that, I definitely would go back!!
