Read moreWonderful to find this place in our neighborhood. Relocated permanently to Tucson in September 2021 - walked by here many times before visiting, from the outside I could take it or leave it - appears a bit 'dated' - DO NOT let that deter you from going inside....
Tried it in November 2021 - will be a repeat customer, likely every week. The menu is extensive which caused me some trepidation, when a place focuses on too many items, my experience is the food suffers (Think Cheesecake Factory) I had the fries (perfectly cooked), then the cheeseburger with onion rings (Again perfectly prepared) - 5 stars. Service from Kellie - 5 stars, bartenders super efficient, reasonably priced food / drinks. Four pool tables in the non smoking section, separated by four pool tables in the smoking section (glass divider). Place smells / looks really clean, bathrooms fully stocked and clean. My only criticism (jokingly) is the door to the outside squeaks by the pool tables - but I picked up a can of WD40 yesterday and will solve that issue next visit.
Look forward to my next visit, working my way through the French Dip and then the Rueben! Thanks Red Garter for creating a cool place in the Pala Verde neighborhood! ...
Read moreI have gone to this bar for 9+ years! I spent my 21st birthday here. I have brought countless new friends here. And today I had the most disheartening, sad display of service from someone name Kaitlin or Catelyn or however she may spell it. If the owners Matt or Tara W. are willing to reach out to me regarding this issue that would be the only way I would ever step foot or recommend stepping foot in here again. I cannot believe the bullying and complete mistreatment that went on. Rallying the other customers or at least attempting while just causing complete discomfort for everyone. I have never been treated this way or seen an employee treat someone this way except for in online videos. I'm so upset about this and this is the first step I'm able to take. I will not allow people to be treated in this way and I will not allow myself to be treated this way either. This girl Kaitlin is an extremely mean hearted and rude girl and as long as she is working there I will not ever give my money to this bar or...
