Ivar's Sports Bar & Grill — Restaurant in Baton Rouge

I tried to order drinks for 17 mins on a Wed night while LSU basketball was playing. The bartender ignored me. The old man next to me was confused as I was. Another guy came to order drinks and was served first. He said “ she was ahead of me”. The bartender looked at me said “I’ll get to when I feel like it” and then severe 4 other males. I asked my male friend to order our drinks, he got served promptly. I put up my card to pay. She threw the card back at me. When I asked to close out 3 mixed drinks the bill was $74 at half time of the game. I asked for a detailed bill. I had 6 drinks on my bill- all doubles! I said I had 3 drinks and never asked for a double. She told me they automatically serve double everywhere in BR, unless you state otherwise. I said nope! You ever asked me nor did I want a double. I told her I would go back and watch more of game while she corrected the 3 drinks added to my bill and fix the improper double issue. My bill quickly dropped to $32 after i questioned it. I gather the female bartenders are rude to other females and tried to con me out of drinks I didn’t order. Be careful and pay attention to your bill. The male patrons even noted how they treated me....

I have never in my life been more scared for my safety than today at their St. Patrick’s day event. Selling as many tickets as possible to make profit despite knowing that you cannot safely fit people in your establishment is disgusting and unethical and illegal. You could not breathe trying to exit the building. It was so crowded and everyone was getting stressed out pushing one another to try and get outside. All while, y’all continued letting people in. Y’all should truly be ashamed of yourself for making profits at the safety of human beings. God forbid something happens and a person falls in the middle of that crowd and gets seriously hurt. I thought today was going to be a good time but it honestly left me and my friends very stressed. I saw a girl left a similar review to this at the last St. Patrick’s Day parade and y’all blatantly disregarded her concern and left a rude comment in response. Can’t wait to see what my comment from y’all is! But seriously, do better for the sake of literal...

If you are a college-aged person, this place may be a good time. I'm not. I'm 47. With a sore back. And a pinched nerve in my neck. And I went after an LSU football game.

I personally did not have a good time, BUT all the kids there, my wife and her friends, appeared to be enjoying themselves. The place was very packed!

Watching the dude get knocked out outside was pretty entertaining, but the contest was over WAY too fast. I'm glad I didn't have to pay to watch. I would have been pissed as apparently there was only one fight on the card that night.

One redeeming factor involving the "atmosphere" was the scenery. It was a rather cold night for south Louisiana, but the beautiful young ladies that were in attendance did not disappoint! Most braved the cold in some fairly appealing to the eye fashion choices!

Did not have an opportunity to sample any menu items or utilize the wait staff service.

Giving 4 stars because I'm sure on any other night I probably would have...
