Steamers Sports Pub — Restaurant in Charlotte

My first and last time going there. The food was subpar to say the very least. We came only intending to watch Game 7 of the World Series. We ordered an appetizer, loaded nachos or something, and it was literally a handful of nachos with microwaved cheese on the top, and sprinkled with shredded lettuce and a tablespoon of salsa. On the side was an ounce of sour cream and jalapenos. It looked disgusting. We ate 1-2 nachos and ordered the "sampler tray appetizer" hoping it would be better. It was not. The manager accused us of eating all of the nachos before sending them back and still charged us for "half of the nachos". The only upside of this place was the secluded back room specifically for those who wanted to watch the world series. Food was horrible, service was "ok", management was horrible. Just Horrible. This bar needs John Taffer from Bar Rescue immediately. They are also RACIST.! Is it ironic that the only 2 African American groups in the bar that night had an unsatisfactory experience. A separate and unrelated couple had a similar experience to us as far as how we were treated that night (We spoke outside the building while leaving). I was also told by a random employee that I could not wear my hoodie (black nike hoodie with big red NIKE word across the front) inside the building. Others at the table beside us, who happens to be white, even debated that this wasn't true because they are frequent goers of the establishment and never had that issue themselves. Our waiter also kept standing near our table for about 20 minutes after we received the tab; as if she was monitoring us to make sure we do not leave without paying (keep in mind that we came to watch the world series which had an hour left in the game). I will never go here again. I felt targeted and uncomfortable. I had to finish the last inning of the baseball game at home.. WHERE I FELT...

Unfair, disrespectful, and INSULTING treatment by the management and servant (waitress). This is what I experienced. In all fairness, this could've been an awesome and spontaneous evening of fun with my family. However, it turned SOUR. When paying our 100.00+ tab, what should've registered as a 25.00 tip registered as .25. The server, whom I thought was a tentative servant to her craft, had the nerve to sit directly in front of ME (60 years old African American, Disabled VETERAN GRANDMOTHER) and demand I give her explanation as to WHY I FAILED TO TIP HER? After my head stopped spinning for obvious reasons and disbelief of the audacity, I explained that I did infact leave a tip. We had a short exchange. I then reported this to her manager, who also had matching attributes about the exchange. Point and facts are that I did not properly leave the intended tip. And this could've been fixed had the servant just respectfully inquired about the intended tip. WHO IN NAME SAKE WOULD LEAVE A PERSON WHO DID HER JOB PROPERLY 25CENT AS A TIP?!!! Culturally, we have differences, and with this, this may be a learning lesson to NEVER demand your elder to give you anything other than the respect you give. And be thankful that you were even compensated for your service. In hindsight, perhaps that was a higher source watching out for my well-earned dollars. I will spend that 25.00 elsewhere. In the end, MY Family made sure the servant received the tip she did, in fact, earn BUT NOT MY DOLLARS. I WILL NEVER COME BACK! Respect goes a log way and good for business. Have...

My friend's Id picture was a little faded. The date was visible and it was valid and not expired. The bartender was unsure so he checked with the manager. She didn't even take a look at the Id. She just shook her head no. I saw her say something about carding us while he told us the specials. Last time we were told he couldn't wear boots but I have been in with other friends and I've seen people with boots on. It's only when I come with him that I have a problem. My friend has dreads. He seems to be the only one with dreads but why discriminate against him? I am a bartender myself and word of mouth is still the best advertising. Not only will I never try to come there again...I will also tell all my bar guests and friends to not go there as well. The bartender seemed nice enough but he missed out on at least a 30% tip and repeat customer. It kinda sucks because the first time I met my friend we went to this bar with the same Id. It was the first and last time for us. It could have been our anniversary place. Thanks for ruining it. You cant rain on our parade...we went to Big Al's. 2 miles down the road with better specials and food! 😂😂😂 so if your'e reading this...go to Big Al's with live music or a good dj....
