    I'm giving this a high rating because of how management handled a group of men that were sexually harassing my friends and I. Thank you Perry and the man working the door for getting those guys to leave us alone. They handled and de-escalated situation accordingly. They even got my friend a new drink after one of the guys started drinking from it. A place is telling with how they handle obnoxious guys and they did well. Which is why I am giving them this rating. All in all, this is a nice pool bar to grab a drink, shoot some pool and hang out with your friends! Ladies, stay safe and look out for each other! This place is one of the few nightlife hangouts that values the safety of their women patrons!

    last night I was denied entry because I had my service animal with me. I am a protected individual under the ADA act " Americans with disability Act. It was very hot last night and I came into the Bar for a drink and for some water for my Service animal. I am a TBI victim, shaken baby syndrome , abused until I was 11 years old. My service animal detects Anxiety attacks and keeps them from happening she is also used for my PTSD. this buisness violated my rights as a Disabled individual.

    They have Tornado foosball tables

    I always have a great time at Sharkey's. A fun place to play pool, foosball, ping pong and so much more. There is a bar in the front and a bar in the back where the darts are. Shuffleboard too!

    Seriously? I have not reviewed Sharky's? That is ridiculous because this place is awesome. I come here on average about once a week. What can I say, I love pool and this is the place to do it. Sharky's is a smoking bar, so keep that in mind. They have a bar area with bar seating and pub tables. There are a few arcade like games and TVs all around the bar, including the pool tables. There is also a separate bar in the back that is usually open with the same bar seating and pub tables. There is also darts. They have a Walking Dead viewing every week if you're interested in that too. Pool is $10 an hour so if you're a slow player, it may be cheaper to go somewhere you can pay per game. The environment at Sharky's is worth it though. You get your balls at the bar and leave an ID, you've got a bar tender that comes around and will take drink orders or you can order at the bar. They're open typical bar hours and on Sundays it's service night so if you're in the service industry at all, it's FREE!! I'm sure I'll see ya there. Cheers.

Our server did great but I didn't catch her name. It wasn't busy or full but that may be because not many know about this new establishment yet. My hubby and I both ordered the salmon and our son ordered a basic cheeseburger without tomatoes. I can't remember the name of my drink but it was the first one listed on the in-house menu. Our friends ordered a mango beer. The online menu on Google is not accurate. Our server mentioned they have revamped the menu since opening their doors. I assume that they are still working out some kinks and trying to get it just right. I am not sure if they actually serve brunch or not. My hubby and I agree that was some of the best salmon we have eaten at a non-seafood restaurant. The glazed carrots were good, nothing spectacular but the au gratin potatoes were "interesting." We haven't decided how we feel about them. They were definitely homemade though. The potatoes had a crust on top that I could not figured out what ingredients were included. Our son said his burger and fries were good. He is a man of few words unless he doesn't like something. Our friends enjoyed their beers but I forgot to ask what they thought of their food. They have potential and we will visit again. Prices were decent for what we got.

    Staff was great! They've only been open about two weeks…read more The bruschetta was great. My French dip was tender with gooey cheese and the au jus was pretty perfect. The rueben was huge. We also had the Caesar wrap at our table. All were deemed great. A little disappointed in the onion rings. Totally a bar food menu but I would be back. It's really good bar food. I thought prices were VERY reasonable.
