As cigar lounges go, this is the priciest in the area and most understaffed. Here it's a waiting…read moregame for the hostess to clean, unlock lockers, assist with selecting cigars and serve drinks. That being said the smoke eaters are strong. Almost as if each person has their own, which is ideal because at many cigar lounges you are choked by your colleagues smoke stack. They are cool about you ordering food in and Sports Grill is next door, which is a win in itself. Parking is validated and costs $5 until midnight and $20 after midnight. Either is cheaper than the $30 unvalidated parking. Guy math, you buy a stick at Tabacon to evade the steep parking fee so it's essentially free. If you're there Friday or Saturday, it's more like a club that happens to have cigars rather than the rest of the time when it's opposite day.

I WILL NEVER STEP FOOT IN THIS ESTABLISHMENT AGAIN! I went a few weeks ago and my friends and I…read morewere having an amazing time. One of my friends in particular was ordering a specific drink which was on my open tab. At some point one of the servers (very short Colombian girl, with black hair, and a pointy nose) began to take my friend's drink order. My friend was ordering a specific whiskey which he had all (5) on my tab. My friend ended up getting drunk which is when that specific server began taking his drink order and at the end of the night my friend mysteriously had (11) drinks between two different tabs but yet they were two different whiskeys. My friend's sober wife who had one cocktail explained to the server that this did not make sense and that there was no way my friend had (11) whiskeys. He would have ended up in the hospital. The server in return got extremely upset and began to ignore my friend's wife and attempt to reason with my drunk friend. My friend's wife got upset and at that point the server began to insult her. At this point another random server who was off and was celebrating her birthday at her job (tall blonde Hispanic girl, slim in stature) felt the need to get in the middle and tell us that "the servers are to be respected" not knowing that the server was being extremely disrespectful and defensive. I used to love this place and I've never left a review on any platform but I felt the need to address this. It is sad that this server took advantage and tried to capitalize on the fact that my friend was drunk. Ringing up extra drinks in hopes that we wouldn't notice when we spent over $500 at this establishment on several occasions. The other servers besides the two I mentioned attempted to diffuse the situation and review the tabs with us to make sure everything was explained. Our tabs with the others severs were spot on and transparent. I am not sure what this girls scam is but for anyone who goes here look out for her and use caution. I am not the type to complain but if you're going to be a low life scammer who takes advantage of people at least be more discreet. Things may have been different if she would've just explained herself in a nice way and be more respectful. But going straight to insults and defensiveness clearly shows she was up to no good. For the other blonde girl, she should mind her business until she gets both sides of the story.

Showed us to the bar and got our seats wiped down. The kitchen wasn't serving hot food since we came after 10pm, so we opted for hummus which was soo good! Our drinks were great, and my bf got a cigar which was a great experience. The man who was in that area, was knowledgeable and helped him choose the right one. This is a great place for a group night out and I can't wait to come back with my friends! The ambiance is like you're in a different time, very different and I loved every minute of it!

Just try anything or ask.to be surprised. Remy was our server and he is freaking awesome and has skills. He helped us choose our cocktails cause everything was sounding like a vibe. The food options sound delish and the sliders and pizza seemed to be a hit as we saw that mostly. We were here for drinks though and we stuck to it. Only down fall for us is that we aren't cigar smokers, so the room was filled with it as we didn't know its a cigar lounge as well, but to each his own. Come drink eat and ber merry!

The back was a lounge with no less than four HD televisions, comfortable leather chairs, and decorated side tables with cutters and torches chained to each table (to prevent the clowns from stealing them). There is a bar with a coffee/espresso machine in there as well, so life is deliciously golden at this point. I spoke with one of the people working there, and they have a new owner from just last week, and they are bringing in a bit of everything (Sorry for us Americans, but no Cubans unfortunately), but they have literally everything else and then some more. The young cat that works there I spoke with is a reservist, and they give a military discount, which is always appreciated, I was ecstatic when I got 4 bold cigars for $36 WITH my discount.
