I was there for the oyster special, and for 50¢ oysters, they were actually pretty solid. Fresh, flavorful, and definitely worth it for the price. They also have buy-one-get-one margaritas, which is always a win. The drinks were well-made and paired perfectly with the laid-back midweek energy. As the night went on, the DJ started doing their thing and the whole atmosphere shifted...in a good way. It went from chill to a full-on vibe pretty quickly. Only downside? Parking can be a bit of a headache, especially once the crowd rolls in. So I'd definitely recommend getting there early if you can. Overall, a great Wednesday night spot if you're looking for good deals, good music, and a lively crowd. I'll definitely be back.

I had a watermelon mint hookah and it was really good. They keep the coals coming until you can't smoke anymore. The VIP booths around the venue are comfortable and intimate. There's a pool table too if you'd rather be up playing. The TVs were playing sports the whole time I was there so this would be a great spot to catch a game and relax. I love the photo op wall covered with flowers and the X Lounge sign.

It's a laid back atmosphere with indoor and outdoor perks. I love their patio and after a certain hour you can smoke inside as well. They fumbled the ball on my Peach Long Island a couple times but even the best bartender has so I don't hold it against them. They hit the nail on the head when they got it right though. Nick was my favorite bartender but I don't think he works there anymore. The owner is good as well and does some amazing tricks with fire that had everyone pulling their phones out. They have old school game systems with amazing games (super Mario, donkey kong) there's a small hoop, DJ'S on certain nights and it's really picked up. Eclipse is also the new home of the Cypher held every Thursday from 8pm-12am the only night where you'll pay at the door ($10) and there is some food that night. The only CON is that there isn't a kitchen, a food truck may pull up or certain nights they've ordered food for the event. They have some chips hanging and maybe another snack but that's about it.

I waved the bartender down and told her and she told a guy in which told me I would be taken care of. Then proceeded to go about the night. I asked the girl for her name on a receipt to make sure things go well. Idk what she told the guy but he tried to tell me they were to busy to handle whatever I was asking. Then when I told him what I needed. He told me I would be taken care of they would void my ticket. But then bam! It's Monday and I have the charge and an extra charge. Horrible business yall.

And we didn't want to eat fast food or at a chain restaurant. There was no one else in the large dining room so we decided to sit at the bar. You can't see the bar from the dining room as you must walk through a door. The bar was nice with pads along the edge and hooks underneath to hang your purse. The bartender was friendly and attentive. I ordered fried fish which came with hushpuppies and fries. My lunch was deliscious! The fish was fresh and there was the perfect amount of breading (not too much). The straw fries were hot and yummy. I only ate half and took the rest home for dinner. There was a huge outdoor patio in the back. And both the dining room and patio had stages for live music. This spot had dive vibes but was super clean (even the bathroom).
