In short, we were kicked out. My friends and I walked into a very boring scene. No one was dancing, people were just sitting around, trying to be too good looking to enjoy themselves.
That's not myself, nor my friends. We wanted to dance, so we did. And then everyone else was dancing, and we were dancing with them. We were quite literally the party for what was a very boring scene.
I wouldn't be writing this if I felt there was no overreaction, let me make that clear. I thought that by the time the staff/bouncers got there, they were acting on the DJ's reaction.
My friend accidentally and lightly bumped the wall in front of the DJ booth. I was already standing up there, right next to where she stepped. She stepped up, and then as she turned, she LIGHTLY bumped a wall in front of the DJ's table, and admittedly, the entire wall fell, and then onto the DJ's stuff.
I'm not sure what type of terribly constructed, wobbly, TV tray equipment they gave this DJ for his equipment, or if he chose this, but his equipment wouldn't have fallen from anything resembling an actual table. My friend hit a light wall about thigh high, and then the wall knocked his stuff over. He immediately got into my friend's face, began yelling at her, spitting in her face, and then bouncers told us to get out. That was it.
But it was a massive overreaction from the bouncers there, and the spitting DJ. My friends and I are black and educated, and we are not old, but old enough to hold our darn liquor, and wondered if a cute little white girl had hit it or knocked it down, if it would have gotten the same reaction. My friend was not drunkenly stumbling all over the place, it was something even a sober person could have done, just lightly bumped into something as they turned. The DJ especially, and the staff, overreacted by a LOOOOOOOOOOONG shot. Between the time the wall fell, and we were kicked out, was less than one minute.
That place sucked before we walked in. If you go, make sure someone fun is already there.
And let me make it quite clear, again, that if my friend were drunkenly stumbling around and being irresponsible, I would not have even written this. It would be her fault. But the way we were treated was just completely...
Read moreWe stopped here for lunch around noon on 11/3. We were warmly welcomed upon walking through the entrance, and we were told to sit wherever we like. The staff were very attentive and took great care of us. Amazing service. We ordered our drinks, and after a few minutes of looking over the menu, we decided to get the wrecked fries and the fried mac n’ cheese to start us off. We were blown away by the appetizers. Extremely delicious. The fries were seasoned exceptionally well, and needed no condiments, but the queso and pico and sauces sent the experience over the top! Highly recommend trying these. And don’t forget the mac n’ cheese! It was crispy and very well seasoned on the outside, and the inside was filled with perfectly cooked and massively cheesy macaroni. Another stellar appetizer. Then our burgers finished us off. I got the Guinness Bacon Burger. The beer marinated onions danced with the bacon and the spicy bbq sauce while I enjoyed the soft bun and the juicy beef patty. Great burger. My son had the Galisteo, which was phenomenal as well. And my wife had the Woodstock, which was a mushroom lover’s dream come true in burger form. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our food and had...
Read moreI've been here twice now and really enjoyed it! We've always had really awesome and attentive service when we go, and I love that you can get any burger with Beyond Meat patties instead. Fries are crispy and good.
I went yesterday and we had a mistake with our appetizer. Our waitress was super nice about it and we even had the owner come sit with us and talk about how to make it right. They brought us a free substitute even. (HUGE mozarella sticks with poblano peppers in them, really good.) Excellent service and super nice people!
My only complaint is I realized afterwards that my burger had actually been missing some toppings. It clearly didn't bother me too much since I didn't notice while eating, but it would have been nice to try it as it was meant to be! I will also say the seating isn't super comfortable if you're trying to hang out and get drinks or watch a game, but to stop in for a burger, it isn't too bad. Very similar vibes to Atomic Pizza next door.
I'll definitely be back though! Really kind people who want to make things right and want you to have...
