Staff is seasoned and professional, even the young staff carry themselves in a refined, respectful manor. Man, I sound old. Point is: it was a breath of fresh air. Now, it is a sports bar. TV Screens you can see from everywhere except the patio. The real money here is that they make everything scratch when you pick it, and Kimberly expressly impressed upon us, substitute and/or add anything you want. It is all custom made to order! (she didn't literally say "and/or" but you get the idea...I'm paraphrasing) None of this; $2.95 to add avocado, or $4.95 to add grilled shrimp. $1 to order your protein of choice blackened, $2 add shrimp. Come on now!!! Do that! This is the quietest sports bar I have ever been to. Dark Wood interior, booths that tuck you away from the crowd but leave you readily exposed to a plethora of flat screens, so you don't miss the Astros and the Yankees! I can't go over this whole menu, because it is like a sprawling playground, so many options. And not like a fast-food fiasco either. You just might want ALL of this stuff. Really, look at the menu, some time went into these names of dishes and array of ingredients. I use Fish Tacos as one of my staple "check this place out" orders. $1 blackened my Cod Tacos and YES! Wnner. fresh made slaw, pretty spicy Adobo Sauce, delicate tortilla, not doughy or thick. And yeah, it's Carb night for Daddy, sweet potato fries...Can I have a moment..."Good" is embarrassed next to these fries. These things rock! I stole my boy's ranch to dip them in. (Don't judge; I can't stand Ketchup) My wife gets the Grilled Chicken Wrap, Its huge. She took half home. My son is yes, still a child, and gets the Chicken Fingers and fries with Lemonade, from their "Small Appetites" menu page, he couldn't finish it. Are you getting the portion picture here? I had to, HAD to, order the smoked pulled pork Oklahoma Kitchen Sink Nachos! A half order, mind you, and we could have left after that and been happy. My first nacho chip didn't even have pork on it and I could taste the smoke, kitchen crafted Pico with a lime bite, Connie's Queso and enough melty Chedder to make your cardiologist throw a flag on the field. It's always hard to say you have a new best friend, but, hard to deny as well...I want at least 15 other items on this menu. The Loo Review, less spectacular, almost don't want to end on it, but here goes... there is a separate sit-down door and its a real door, not a truck-stop stall. Tastefully white tiled, all the stuff you need, and basically, just-get-back-out-there-and-enjoy-the-food adornments. See pics. Clean and tidy, except for the fact this is a sports bar and everybody isn't blessed with aim. Back to the place, did I mention the super-fly patio? draped with lights and lattice work to keep you "inside the venue". I can't give it enough 5 stars. We will return for more. You must go!

I also tried the Sicilian Egg Skillet, which was very good, and the Sweet & Savory Belgian Waffles, which were also a great choice.

Five stars in my book!

Thanks owners for thinking of that small touch that is actually huge for us ladies. I also enjoyed the hand exfoliant and the body butter in the restroom as well. Ok....Moving along to why everyone's here. My guest just had a classic breakfast of eggs, sausage and we added in the lemon cream cheese pancake. I had a sweet tooth and this did the trick. The pancake was soft, fluffy and not an overwhelming sweet from the lemon cream cheese. but enough to cure the craving, All of his food was seasoned well. I had the Chilaquiles and it was so full of flavor. The chicken breast was cooked just right and the addition of corn and abundance of veggies in the dish was a welcoming surprise. It was a very hearty but clean meal. The wait staff was fantastic. Both bartenders (One was from Hawaii- forgot his name) were very welcoming and communicative. The restaurant manager along with owner also came by to greet and check on us. Last but not least, they were celebrating The 4th of July with $2.50 martinis. What a steal!!! I have heard that their happy hour is very decent for the price and the quality that you receive. I said all of that to say, this spot should definitely be on the list for any occasion or time of day.

I came in with one goal: find a comfortable bar seat, watch a soccer match, and enjoy an appetizer and a beer. Mission accomplished! There are two entrances. One that brings you right near the bar and another at the front where you can be greeted and seated by a server. I opted for the bar and kicked off the evening with a beer and the skillet queso. Let's talk about that queso for a second. It was memorable. There was something about the flavor that really stood out and had me going back for "just one more bite" more times than I'd like to admit. The bartender was attentive, there were plenty of TVs showing the match, and the overall atmosphere was relaxed and easygoing. It was the perfect setting to unwind and enjoy the game. I'd definitely come back for another match and next time, I may have to venture beyond the queso and explore more of the menu.

I was directed towards the half pounder jalapeño burger and the mushroom chicken sandwich. Both sandwiches were extremely too soggy. The buns were not toasted or even fresh just a lot of moisture the moment you opened them up they were wet. The flavor on the jalapeño burger was just that, no unique taste at all, and the chicken sandwich was ehhhh just a lot of sloppy lettuce and an overcooked piece of bird. I can say I tried it but wouldn't try this place again. Also for 2 sandwiches and 1 fry $32 was a bit much in my opinion. Happy Yelping

Well a little disappointed with this place. I didn't notice the amount of reviews was relatively…read moresmall which might be why the rating was off from my opinion of it. This is a counter order deli- NOT like New York Deli at all as another yelper mentions. And we should know coming from New York. My husband and I agreed we would rate this 6 out of 10. Flavor wise the food here is equivalent to a toasted yolk. While it has a nice outside space and is dog friendly, a classic deli experience it is not. One side set up like a Starbucks counter and a small kitchen for made to order items on the other, the brick and metal interior just couldn't pull off a deli experience. Now if you are looking for a quick bite with some interesting flavor combos and a good cup of coffee with your dog or kids, this would be a good place. With a fun rainbow colored bagel to entice kids to eat and the outdoor space to run around and pet dogs, this is a nice neighborhood breakfast spot. For me, the production style food that came out lukewarm, the server who carried our tray of food around everywhere, even outside, before coming to us waving our number at him, the average seasoning of the dishes and the self serve and self cleanup, did not meet my expectations of a cafe much less a deli. Come here with an average rating in mind and you will enjoy it as such. Just don't call this a New York deli.

The hostess opened the front door right away to show us inside. My wife ordered the blackened flounder with two sides, southern green beans and the sweet potato cakes, because the server recommended it. I also went with the server's suggestions and ordered the Wagyu chicken fried steak with bacon jalapeno mac-n-cheese and jalapeno cream corn. It might not have been the healthiest choice, but I wanted to enjoy the evening. lol My wife really liked the blackened flounder. The green beans were a bit more overcooked than she liked, though. The chicken fried steak was outstanding and very tender. I liked that the delicious gravy came on the side so the steak stayed crispy. The sides were also outstanding. The GM (Glen, sp?) came to say hello because it was our first time there. I told him everything was wonderful and that we would come back. When we left, the hostess opened the door for us again without missing a beat. Great food, great service, and a lively atmosphere.

I left disappointed and frustrated with the purchase and will not be returning. To make matters worse, they don't even accept tap-to-pay or Apple Pay. In 2026, that's an unnecessary inconvenience and shows a lack of investment in the customer experience.
