The place was clean and had plenty of rest room facilities. The prices for drinks were reasonable for this type of venue and the selection of beers and liquors was above average.  The one complaint we had was the amount of distortion with the music that night. We've heard the band many times, but on this night both acts we had difficulty hearing the vocals as they were muffled/distorted. I'm not sure what the issue with the sound board was this evening, but in a premiere music venue, this should never be an issue.  We will definitely return to XL live in the future and hope the sound system was just a one off night.

The cocktails alone are worth the visit. The bartenders really know their craft, and the alcohol selection, including local beers, is solid. My only real issue is brunch. Every time I've visited after 12 p.m. (brunch is served until 2 p.m.), there's been a problem--either they're no longer taking food orders, the kitchen is backed up with a 45-minute wait, or they've simply run out of food. It comes off unprofessional and could definitely be handled better. I've noticed this becoming a growing trend during brunch service in general, and while some people suggest arriving as early as 10 a.m. for the best experience, consistency matters. If you're offering brunch, you should be properly staffed and prepared to serve guests throughout the full service window. Period. It's especially frustrating when you've traveled specifically to experience their culinary offerings and hit a wall like that. Overall, if you're looking for a spot that feels like a New York-style dive bar with elevated drinks and solid food--if you catch it at the right time--this place delivers. Just plan strategically if brunch is your goal.

High Dive is an interesting mashup. From the name and the first impression inside, it reads as a…read moredark, slightly dingy dive bar, and it fully delivers that vibe. Then you open the menu and realize there is a surprisingly large Hawaiian themed food selection. It is not really a restaurant, though. It feels like a bar first, with a better than expected food program, not the other way around. The bar service was excellent. I ordered a Sazerac, and they served it with the absinthe on the side so you can add it to taste. That is a small detail, but it shows care and attention, and it made for a great drink. Service overall was friendly and prompt. Even though it is clearly a bar, it is also calm enough during certain hours that you could do some work or have a low key meeting. I would not try that during peak drinking hours. I am not sure of the exact hours, but it seems like more of a late day or evening spot than a lunch stop. If you are in the area and want a solid cocktail and a snack, High Dive is an easy pick.

I had a Whiskey BBQ burger which was tasty, with a side of fries. I also got an order of the homemade cheese sauce on the side to dip my fries in which didn't have as much flavor as I anticipated, but it was still pretty good (I mean... it's cheese. Come on.). What made the evening more interesting was a guy who sat at the bar having a full conversation with himself... we thought he maybe had headphones in but nope. The staff definitely was keeping an eye on him and doing the best they could with the situation. All in all, I'd come back when I'm next in town to hang again.

The wings are simply the best as I always state in previous reviews. They are priced right and they offer a whole range of different flavors and these are not the little baby wings that you would get at some other place. These are nice size wings. When we go on Saturdays, they usually offer different type of food options in specials and you really cannot beat. The pricing in a food is well prepared. It's a restaurant/bar/sports bar whatever sport is going on. You're gonna find it on all of their screens so for the sports chunky this is heaven. Thank you for always providing such amazing wings and we will be back soon !!

Yes! A city owned but privately run entity that sells great drinks?! Yes!! Hilarious professional bartending staff and a raft of PA made liquors, in addition to a giant selection of canned and draft drink options, made this an excellent discovery as we waited for a game to start. Seriously considered skipping the game to stay here (glad I didn't - Senators won). Sitting under tented areas or in chairs along the shoreline, this wonderful place had music and then, later, a DJ. Made new friends and had cold drinks on a perfect September afternoon. I suspect the joint is seasonal, so check to see their hours, but by all means - get here, spend money, and keep this place in business.
