I stopped here for cocktails before a Saturday dinner reservation at a nearby restaurant…read more It's a cool place. I can tell a lot of thought went into the setup and a lot of thought goes into the menu. I ordered the Oaxacan Old Fashioned. The cocktail on its own was good, but it was served with piece of dark chocolate that paired well and balanced the flavor of the OF. I hadn't seen that, so it made for a fun experience. There's plenty of room at the standing tables, so a reservation isn't really necessary. I didn't mind standing at all. The service was solid.

The place was medium full and I did find a spot at the bar. The bartender was by quickly and got my drink and food order. The band just kept playing one great song after another including a unique version of Michael Jackson's Billy Jean. My side salad was out quick and it was delicious. The Prime Rib was out shortly after and that was one huge serving of prime rib mash potato's and green beans. I could not finish but it was delicious. Even though I was in and out in about an hour I Meade a note to come back.

I had the Conductor's Club sandwich for my main. The buttery, crispy sourdough was layered with generous portions of ham and turkey and crowned with lettuce, tomato, and peppery bacon. Best club I've had in a long time. Fries were double fried, which isn't my favorite, but if you like that style you'll be pleased with the crispness. We then split the Creme Brulee Ice Cream Sandwich for dessert. It was delightful, but not exactly as the menu described it (listed apples and candied pecans as accompaniments but came with strawberries and pineapples instead). Overall, a nice spot for a casual lunch and great flavors!

What an appropriate name! I thought I'd covered every bar on North Oak long ago! Every time I saw…read morethe name "Lost Bar" come up in my research I assumed it had to be a new name for a bar I'd already been too. Ironically, my BARDAR has gone off numerous times while driving past the very strip mall in which this bar is located. It's a strip mall that screams that it has a bar in it, yet there isn't one to be found... ...unless you look in the back. But why would you? From Oak it looks like a standard one-story strip mall with nothing behind it. But it turns out there's a sharp drop in the hill and there is indeed a lower level around back. Lost Bar is a small, dark, smokey dive -- exactly what you'd expect such a well-hidden place to be. There's pool tables, games, and a small stage. There seems to be a well-knit group of regulars. Our bartender was very friendly and pleasant. Beer was poured cold and at just the right price: cheap! I really enjoyed my visit here and will be back.

We were in search of mac & cheese, so doing a quick search led me to Two Birds, and we settled here…read moresince my goal was to try more new places this year. When we arrived, it was a little quiet, so we sat at the bar. The two bartenders working were welcoming. One of them asked if we were there to eat, handed us menus, and then let us know what wasn't in stock. It was a little weird that they were out of chicken quarters, pasta salad (or was it potato?), burgers (maybe that's a testament to their popularity), and bacon... Thankfully, the mac & cheese was available, so the mission wasn't a fail. The plus was that it came with a side of fries, and not just any-- they were seasoned sidewinder fries, for those of you who are fans of thicker potatoes. I had the Italian po-boy, which I really enjoyed. I thought they constructed it well, and the spicy relish wasn't too much heat if you're worried about that. It was definitely the right amount of food, too. I was able to clean the plate and not regret the last bite. At this point, they've been open for 8 months, so I think they've worked out the kinks, but we also showed up on a Wednesday night, so service was great and attentive. It might be different on weekends, but I'd come back to try more things on the food menu.

I loved that Two Birds was within easy walking distance of the arena. So convenient! Many others had the same idea to crab a drink post game. Service was great!

We didn't try any food, but there is a menu other bar food available. Loved the view of the river and the convenience. A great stop for pre- or postgame or for a lovely outdoor drink.

Reunited, and it felt so good! My only challenge was the smoke--it was really strong and honestly brought me back to the '80s a bit more than I'd like. Maybe when the weather is nicer and they can open the garage door to air things out, it will be better. That said, I loved stopping by today for what are, in my opinion, the best tacos north of the river.

The space is fairly large with three long rows of communal tables, a bar and several smaller seating options, lot's of TV's for sports and a stage for bands and karaoke. Our waitress was friendly and I appreciate that the owner was providing a table of free food as an option since the kitchen wasn't operational yet, There were bags of chips, nuts and several boxes of Pizza Hut pizza that he had delivered. My only complaint was that I was served a drink with the cheap margarita mix when ordering a "Top Shelf Margarita", they should always be made with fresh. I will be eager to return and check out the food menu when available.

The bartender was very friendly and encouraged me to go up and sing. After some liquid courage I got up the nerve to sing a sing. The karaoke host was cool and welcoming too. Score was a great score indeed!

There's pool tables and I may have seen ski-ball. I didn't know it was there. If you try to find it, it's across the highway from Dixons Chili. It's best to go the back way on 35th St. or 40 highway and turn right at Family Dollar. My friend and I ordered fried corn ( like fried mushrooms). They were so delicious I forgot to photograph. I really need to return for fried chicken though. The service was top notch and the seats comfortable. There's classic rock facts rolling across the tv. This place would be fun for a Chief's game.
