Service - 4/10 Sometimes, selection can be a burden. They have too many beers for the service staff to get a handle on them all and only a couple people in the restaurant can answer questions about the food and drink solidly. Too many chiefs on the bar. My liquor of choice was on the shelf but not on the system, so they magnanimously charged me $65/shot for it..about twice what the local 4-Stars charge (which they are not).
Food - 3/10 I ordered two things, a BLT to-go and an order of fried cheese while I waited on friends to join me for an early happy hour. The fried cheese came out fast and fresh and was great. I had two friends meet with me at two different times and ended up staying much longer than I intended, so I ordered some fries to munch on...they never came, and I forgot about them while chatting. Unfortunately I never got to taste the BLT, as the to-go sandwich disappeared from the bar while I was away from my seat. The GM quickly offered to remake it, but he disappeared and I ended up waiting 30 minutes and had to leave empty handed.
Overall - The concept is great, there is not lacking for TV viewing, the food (what little I saw of it) was great, and obviously the beer selection is albeit overwhelming...(it's like having an entire wine cellar shoved in your face). I like the beer, but it's simply not worth $50 a bottle to see it.
I have to say, the experience was positive until I saw the pricing on the alcohol. It's horribly inconsistent. A small snifter on tap is $5, but a bottle of Narwhal is $50, Patron Silver is 9.50, and Belvanie 21 is extortion at $65 a pop (seriously...that's twice what that everyone else around sells their for!) ...I never got the BLT, still got charged for it, and this afternoon I've discovered that I was charged again later for something after I left.
Definitely never setting foot in that place again. Not interested in another $400 surprise and definitely not going somewhere that reuses...
Read moreI've been here maybe ten times in 3 months. I am a lunch guy to early afternoon. I never come here after 5pm. When it's quiet and you have the attention of the staff I've always been extremely happy with the service and the experience. The food actually makes me mad because the quality of the kitchen and menu belong in a dedicated restaurant and not in a sportsbar. The food is very, very, very good. I can't say it enough how great it is. I even decided to jump around the menu, order all of the courses and still the food is amazing. I want to bring my family here but can't because it isn't very family friendly or kid friendly and normally has that one group of loud self important professional Asshats that talk too loud and laugh at their farts. Anyway the food is good. I can't tell you about the night life though as am I too old for that nonsense. If you have time after topgolf come across the street and have some food and drinks. They have tons of beer here because it's a craft beer place. I don't care about the fancy beer made in someone's basement in Michigan and don't know why craft beers are a thing. I found the closest to Guinness and just drink that. If you want to be a beer snob you can come here and be as fancy pinky fingered as you want over their 100+ beer selection. Come drink some good beer and have some great food. If you are here for lunch and you see a crotchety old man in the...
Read moreI am guessing Tony showed up right after they opened and probably was a bit hammered, considering he ordered a sandwich to go, then never left. I'm sure the BLT would have kept for the hours in the box anyway.
I have been a few times and the service has been great. They have a ton of waitresses and they are more up to date on the menu now that it has been open for a bit.
The drinks are on a rotating basis, so they may not know every beer on the menu as it changes daily based on what kegs they have. Yes they have hard liquor, but this is really a beer drinkers sports bar. No other way to describe it. If you were charged too much for a drink they did not have in the menu, dispute it, before you keep drinking and drinking and lose your cool.
The place is pretty nice though, nice small outdoor patio, the waitresses are nice and friendly but not overly in your business and annoying like at breastraunts. Clean tables with a green and grey theme. Tons of TV's we joked with a manager about some spots that don't have TV's.
The food is great and a bit silly with some of the names. Its bar food now, but like fancy barfood (pretzel bun on a brat for example.) It's a great little place and a wonderful addition to The Colony. I would recommend hanging out there waiting on your bay at Top Golf across the...
