We had Pizza and Cheezy Bread from Ramundo's. It was very good and the service was quick. Beer was reasonably priced. Parking was fine when we got there but it was full when we left. Everyone was parking at the High School and walking over. It was good to see our tax dollars being spent on something that helps the community more than educating the kids. It is noisy inside but it is at a level you can deal with. Lots of things to do and the outside areas looked great!

The white sauce was really good on the wings and I loved the Brussel sprouts. I also had the spicy Italian beef sandwich and I was not disappointed.

All have been easy access to get in, spacious with mass vendors , and fun. Just recently, we went to the Pickles Wars. We bought the tickets online and pricing was reasonable. There were vendors from different states and some local. There were lines but they went pretty quick. Nice alcohol selection and many samples to try. If you want to purchase them, they are sold at the Jungle Jim's market. I love Jungle Jim's events. They are always a great experience and you leave happy.

This place exceeded my expectations for my August 17th wedding. Heather Russell was everything I…read morecould have dreamed and more. She put together my day perfectly. The food was amazing! Her communication exceeded my expectations. I would recommend her for everything. She listened to EXACTLY what I wanted, was amazing, communicated, and even threw in multiple surprises! I didn't like to hear from my wedding party how they thought her boss was disrespectful and breathed down her neck ( I thought Katie was helpful, but it made sense once I heard it)... but she was able to take lead, and do an amazing job event planning while juggling other events leading up to my big day. You'd be crazy to pass her up and passing up the Oscar.. I plan to upload WAY better photos of this venue.. this is all I have for now since I just got married Saturday and Daniel Michael (also 10/10) wouldn't be able to send me photos until a few weeks! But if you're contemplating the Oscar, you can reach out to me for any questions or concerns you have!!!

Bogart's is a classic music venue where you can actually see bands in relatively close quarters…read more There are some VIP and seated areas available, but the venue is overwhelmingly a general admission space. While this can be harder for the older venue-goers like myself, I found it a bit refreshing to be able to jump into the throng, fight for a spot, and lose myself a little enjoying the bands up close. It was nice to be free of the seated mega-venues for a change. Bogart's offers a couple bar spaces with all the offerings you would expect including bagged snacks. I was not amazed by the specialty drinks on my last foray, so I might stick with the typical well cocktails on my next visit. Security was pretty aggressive at the entrance, so you might want to leave the purses and bags at home. They were even flagging things like pens, which seemed like a bit much. Parking in the Short Vine area can be a little tricky. There is mostly street parking and a couple lots, but they can be a bit on the pricey side even for just a few hours.

There's less room to move around, and the acts are on an arguably different scale, but it's easier to access resources like the bar and the bathrooms, and the smaller space means it's easier to find a good vantage point.

I've been here for dance lessons, various events, but this past weekend I came here to see a friend's bellydance show (I love that this space hosts such a broad variety of events). Don't come expecting some fancy-pants venue. Leapin' Lizard is definitely rough around the edges, but is filled with character. I came to the show with my friend's husband and we stopped back at the bar to grab a drink before the show. My friend ordered a whiskey sour. The bartender told us that she was waiting for the sour mix to be brought up but that she would walk the drink over to us when it arrived (in a very busy event), how cool is that!? The bar staff was SUPER friendly throughout the event and it definitely made an impression. I can't wait for the next chance I have to come back!
