A pleasant surprise…read more About a week ago, I was out with my friends and we were looking for a chill place to just hang out and have a few drinks that wasn't too crowded when we happened upon this quiet little hangout rather by accident. For some reason, it seemed everyone in town was out that night and each one of our preferred watering holes was either too crowded or just felt meh to us. After meeting up in Flint Township after work, we were struggling to settle on an ideal, perhaps new, place that also served decent bar food, but was laid back and not filled with Nascar fans, dbags or overly drunk 21 year old girls. After ditching two other establishments because they were not our scene, we came across Vic's Place, quite by happenstance. Vic's Place was definitely the answer. Located around the back of the new Ruggero's location (with a separate bar entrance), Vic's was a nice, quiet alternative. It wasn't a lame sports bar or dive bar, just a quiet pub with good food and drinks. The food was quite good and the menu was fairly extensive, ostensibly because the food comes from the Ruggero's culinary team. After all, they are located within the same building. The food menu featured a lot of pasta dishes and specialty pizzas, as well as the basic tenets of bar food, namely burgers, sandwiches and deep fried appetizers. I split a ginormous order of loaded nachos, heavy on the traditional fixings with a pretty decent hot sauce on the side. My friend, Jen, ordered a personal margherita pizza and while I didn't sample her dish, it looked great, plus she said it was quite good and would order it again. Vic's had an extensive list of beers on tap, which I like in a bar, as well as a nice selection of craft beers. Draft beers came in two sizes- big and humongous. Guess which size I had. Anyway, the beer and wine lists were impressive and the cocktails, while they took a long time to hit the table, were fun, inventive and decidedly not on the weak side. The Old Fashioned was a good classic, strong, but subtle in all the right places. I'd order it again in a heartbeat. My friend, Jen, asked the bartender to "whip up something unique." She was not disappointed. Her nameless concoction was an ode to a Manhattan, but with a twist. I tried it and she was right- it was sublime. I liked the atmosphere. It was laid back and quiet, despite the fact that there were quite a few people in the place, seated up at the bar and at tables. The bar had a jukebox. That was kinda interesting. It wasn't something you see everyday. As for decor, there was a fire pit near our table and the bar was outfitted with a mix of high tops and low tables, with a slightly elevated seating area near the jukebox and the fire pit, which was where we were seated. Be careful when you step down or you'll trip, especially if you're a bit inebriated. The service was a little slow and it definitely took a little bit longer to receive our food than it probably would in a typical dive bar or a greasy spoon, but it wasn't that bad and there was only one bartender on duty pretty much the entire time we were there. Plus, the food was clearly quite a few notches above basic bar grub, anyway. Prices were on par with what one would expect. The draft beer specials were cheap and well worth the extra money to order the larger size draft. I will definitely be back. Our group came in with low expectations and left with any preconceived notions about the place completely shattered. Definitely a nice place for a quiet drink with friends after work or happy hour.

Here is the problem... the bartender gives this one Ding Dong at the bar the remote to the music and he cranks it so loud that you cannot talk to the person next to you. This probably isn't a problem at night but at 6pm when most of the clientele is over 60 and trying to eat dinner this doesn't go over too well.

I recently visited Levels Sports Bar (three times in the last two weeks), and had FANTASTIC…read moreexperiences! The service is A1! You can tell that the owners take pride in how the place is ran. They're very hands on, and not afraid to step in and assist when it gets busy. That kind of leadership shows in the staff performance and overall flow of the business. I went on a very busy Saturday night and everything still ran smooth. When the bartender had some downtime, he didn't stand behind the bar, twiddling his thumbs. He came from behind the bar to check on patrons and clear tables. A real team player, which I appreciated. It's definitely a vibe. The music is great, the wings are fire, and they are a dollar during their happy hour, from 12 PM to 7 PM. The club sandwich combo with red onion is my personal fave; a 10 out of 10, and that lavender margarita... is absolutely delicious and refreshing. They have solid food, drink and beer specials during happy hour. Everything is a reasonably priced. For reference, I had 3 lavender margaritas, a green tea shot and I brought my Best friend a drink as well. I also had the club combo and my bill came to just a little over 50 bucks. Not bad at all. Overall, it's a very well run establishment with great energy. I will most definitely be back!

Here's what will you surprise you, they have great food. Like really good burgers and sandwiches and their apps absolutely awesome. I know, who would have thunk it? Plus, an even bigger surprise was their huge beer list, both draft and packaged. This was really a great surprise from beginning to end. Service here has always been very cool. I pretty much there after seeing my son at school around the same time every time, so it's usually the same crew and they are really asesome. If you're in the area, definitely give them a try. I guarantee they will surprise you.

Love it/ I adore this charming little gourmet wine and charcuterie shop…read more. Excellent customer service and attention to detail, very nice array of wines, craft beer, seltzer waters, sake etc.. the wine selection is really something.. we've stopped in several times since they opened last year and it's a pleasure to patronize such a great local independent business. Apparently, the shop's theme was modeled after the "The Queen's Gambit," hence the name and the large display of chess boards in the lounge. They have a nice seating/dine in area for eating, drinking, relaxing and even playing chess on one of the many boards they keep around for guests. They have free wifi as well. The atmosphere is great for relaxing with friends over a glass of Merlot and cheese board and maybe even a rousing game of chess. I love the decor and eclectic, bohemian touches. They have 'build your own' or already customized charcuterie boards- and the cheeses apparently come from Hills Cheese shop in the Flint Farmers Market downtown. Prices are not the cheapest yet completely in alignment with the quality. The owner is super nice and very helpful in terms of helping select wine pairings and checking out hidden gems in the wine/beer display. If you're having a quick last minute gathering, I think this is the go to shop for all the essentials.
