07/17/2025 While we've stopped here a few times since living here, I hadn't yet taken the time to post a review to my website, so fixing that now. This most recent stop was to meet a friend from Church after work and it turned out to be a great meeting spot.

I started with the Hot Skinny B*/ch (see picture) and as the name implies, the jalapeno tequila and additional sliced jalapenos gave it a good spicy kick! I loved it...but if you aren't into the stronger jalapeno burn, you might not enjoy it as much as I did.

For our dinner, we started with an order of Southwest Egg Rolls (see picture) and then each of us ordered some Wings (see picture). While ideally I would have preferred that both orders not be fried as much as they were, both were still quite tasty and above average pub food.

03/2021 We stopped here for lunch today and all of us enjoyed the food. I ordered the Knock-U-Out Chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries (see picture). It was spicy, yet flavorful - not just burn and nicely paired with toasted jalapeno cheddar bread. The sweet potato fries were also good - crispy outside, yet moist and delicious inside. I would definitely stop here again and would highly recommend the Knock-U-Out Chicken sandwich.

We walked in and it was crowded. We didn't know whether to seat ourselves or not. A sign would be nice. The remaining tables inside hadn't been cleared yet. My first thought was people like this place and it's a little understaffed like everyone else.

We made our way to the patio and found a table. Liked that a cocktail menu was already on the table. We waited a bit for the waitress but she let us know she would be right with us as she was serving other customers. I always like when a busy waitress acknowledges you.

We ordered the shrimp jammers $13 and the steak Quesidilla $13. We also ordered a margarita and Mango Jammer for $7 each. Price point on the drinks just right.

Loved the Shrimp jammers. It is Shrimp with cheese in the most amazing crunch golden crusr. The order came with 6. I always love to try a new concept on an appetizer menu and wasn't disappointed.

The Quesidilla was loaded with steak and was also very enjoyable. The sandwich and burger menu looked awesome but that just means we will have to enjoyably...

Waitress put multiple items on our tab that we did not order, put it all on our card when we said we did not order these items, and then told us if she refunded anything it would be days before we got it back. So we ended up having to pay for other people food and drinks. She also did the same thing to the people we were with. On top of over charging random items to all of my tables tabs she did not keep up on anything the whole night. We had to wave her over when we wanted to get food, and ask other servers for forks, ketchup, etc because ours was no where to be found. This was one of the worst dining experiences I have ever had. Its to bad this happened. Usually when we go here we have a great time. But paying almost double for food and drinks we didn't order and bad service will make us...
