    Good friends playing pool

    Great place to have a few pitchers or a cocktail! I have spent many great times in this place for years. Bartenders are friendly, prices reasonable and open late. Incidents are far in occurrence and this place isn't one of them traps when you leave. People are from all walks of living and friendly. Pool Darts and Jenga big blocks available

We were fine with it, and were given two menus and told to sit anywhere we wanted. After 15 minutes, no servers had come out to take drink orders or anything, so my boyfriend went inside to ask if someone could come take our order. I looked around the patio area and realized there were two other tables whose patrons were there before us, waiting for drinks and service, just like we were. One of them was fanning herself with the menu, as it was close to 100° outside. (There are no misters on the patio, just a slight breeze now and then. And, if you sit near the patio entrance, you should know that the huge dryer vents from the adjacent hotel are pushing hot air into the patio.) My boyfriend came back and said that he was told "someone will be out soon", and he noticed that all the servers were watching the soccer game inside. We waited another minute or so, and decided to leave and find another place for lunch. We were so glad we left...we ended up at Gus's BBQ across the way, and OMG...save yourself the trouble of the weak menu & non-existent service at The Back Abbey and walk over to Gus's. You won't regret it!

    I tried visiting on Saturday, October 3rd, at around 10:20 PM with a few friends, and…read moreunfortunately, we were basically turned away. When we walked in, a man sitting at the bar told us, "Yeah, they're actually not serving anymore. They're closing right now.", even though they closed at 11. One of my friends asked if it would be okay if we only got one drink, and the light-skinned Mexican bartender with black hair simply smiled and nodded. At that point, though, we decided to leave because the overall vibe made us feel not welcomed. My friends and I are all in our late 20s, so we may look a little young, and honestly, it felt like we didn't fit the crowd. My wife and I have been going almost once a week, so this was upsetting. The week before this incident, my wife and I ordered vodka Red Bulls, as we always do, and have never had any problems. This time, on our last round, the blonde bartender charged us for two drinks and a Jose Cuervo shot. Neither of us had ordered a shot, so I asked why we were being charged for it. She explained that it was cheaper for her to charge us for a shot than to charge us for a Red Bull. I told her I didn't understand and questioned the charge again. She then came closer to me and said, "Can you please be quiet because my boss is right there and you're going to get me in trouble." She then said that she could void the transaction and charge us for the two drinks and the Red Bull, but the cost would be more. They've never charged us for a redbull separately. The whole situation was extremely uncomfortable and confusing. We had already been to this establishment multiple times, so it's disappointing to have been treated this way, especially when we were simply asking about a charge we didn't understand. After these experiences, my wife and I definitely won't be returning. It honestly feels like they only care about their regulars and aren't very welcoming toward new or younger customers. Definitely a bummer, because we had previously enjoyed coming here.

If you are concerned about people dropping their glassware perhaps you are bringing in the wrong crowd or need to rethink your night time activities. It is especially a bad look when someone is getting arrested on your patio. Service is terrible. Bartender served the scantily clad woman before serving me and the gentleman next to me who ordered a simple old fashion only 5 mins before woman and her party arrived. Overpriced mediocre drinks. Maybe the good reviews are for their food and/or daytime service but certainly not deserving of a nice night out for drinks. Money poorly spent here.

We came on a weekend and it was super busy (as it should be honestly with how amazing the food and service are). We got the blackened salmon with penne pasta and baby potatoes, and the flat iron steak with bow tie pasta and herb brown rice. The steak was cooked perfectly medium. The bow tie pasta is served cold and has a vinegary flavor to it, definitely a distinct taste, but I personally loved it because I enjoy sour/vinegary flavors. I can see why it might not be everyone's favorite though, but I personally really enjoyed it. The salmon was also super flavorful and cooked perfectly. Same with the penne pasta and potatoes. Honestly everything was just made really well and good. For the sauce, we got their popular jalapeno garlic sauce and it paired well with absolutely everything. Needless to say, this place was really good from head to toe. I also got to meet the owner and he was super friendly too. I seriously wish they would open one closer to my area. Parking was really easy and the ambience was lively with sports playing all around the bar and plenty of seating.

The bottomless mimosas ($29.99) sound like a great deal, but just know how they run it. There's a 90-minute minimum, and they don't bring a bottle to the table--you get one mimosa at a time, and you have to finish it before they'll bring another. The first one I got tasted like straight orange juice barely any champagne. I sent it back and to their credit, they remade it much better They mentioned they control pours to keep the environment in check, which I understand--but if you're expecting free-pour vibes, that's not the case here. Food-wise: French toast & breakfast potatoes were really good However the Chilaquiles were super dry and lacked flavor--wouldn't recommend Burger & fries were decent, but nothing special As for drink pricing, it does lean a bit on the higher side. bucket of 5 beers was around $42, $15 for a Tito's vodka shot, and even a basic Jack and Coke came out to about $18 with tip, which felt a little steep for the area. the best deal was definitely the green tea shots at only $9 I will say, our waitress Priscilla was great. She had a lot of tables and seemed a bit overwhelmed, but she still made an effort to check on us and kept my mimosas coming pretty promptly. I didn't have to wait long at all between refills, which I appreciated. Since we went for a special event, the DJs were great and really kept the energy up the whole time Parking was easy. It did say there was a $2 fee, but when we printed the ticket, we weren't charged--so it might be free, but I'd still double-check at the kiosk just in case. Overall: decent spot for the vibe, music, and brunch outing, but just be prepared for controlled drinks and slightly higher prices.

My mom and her friends raved about how yummy the salad was and I have a sneaking suspicion why. That bad boy is packed to the brim with so much cheese. But yes it was totally yummy. My favorite part is they bring you a whole squirt bottle of vinaigrette dressing. Yes please! I totally understand the hype. The rest of our meal was ok. We got the fajitas which were seasoned great and the tortilla soup was nice. Drinks were totally great!

We were told we couldn't sit together and were expected to split up into different sections because they supposedly couldn't put the tables together. On top of that, we were told not to get out of our seats, as if we were children, and the staff member made comments about our group getting rowdy. The way we were treated left us feeling judged and discriminated against simply because we are bikers. We came to spend our money, enjoy a meal together, and support a local business, but instead, we felt disrespected and unwelcome. Rather than argue or cause a scene, we took our business across the street to another establishment that was happy to serve us. You lost the business of 20 potential customers over the way you chose to treat us. First impressions matter, and yours was terrible. We will not be returning, and we certainly cannot recommend this place based on our experience. If I could give negative stars, I absolutely would!
