“ My husband, and I visited here for the first time last night. We had an outstanding time!! The security at the door was so friendly, and helpful. Also patient lol (he was talking to people when we walked up, I thought it was just a small group of people chatting at the door, didn’t realize we had to see him before entering, didn’t even realize it was security, and I went to open the other door to enter, just thought you walk in like most places lol. He was very patient, and nice when he told me I had to see him first) I felt so foolish because I didn’t even realize haha. He was really nice, and made us feel welcomed. The drinks, and shots were amazing, and all at a fair price! The bartenders were all so friendly, and attentive too. Even with it being so busy, we never had an empty glass! It was crowded, and everyone we came in contact with inside, was really nice, and fun. Loved the jukebox too, good music! We sat up at the bar, and really enjoyed ourselves. This is our new spot, and we will definitely be back! All the employees, servers, bartenders, security are so amazing, and friendly! The restaurant was clean, and neat, as were the restrooms. So happy we decided to stop in last night. See you again very soon! Thank you, for your hospitality! I’ll also be reviewing on Yelp ”
