CRISTOPHER MANUEL SANCHEZ RODRIGUEZ
Excellent experience I have always wanted to come here and finally I did it. I came specifically for the Tuesday of karaoke and I had many opportunities to sing. There are a very good mixture and variety of singers. And everybody from the owner and the waitresses are very friendly. I really recommend their grilled chicken sandwich with bbq sauce. Nice atmosphere and the girl who play the songs for you and the man who does the equalizer knows their job very well! Definitely I will come back!

Great scene for meeting people and listening to music. Karaoke, open mic, bands, trivia, bingo, metal Mondays, it has a lot of things. There’s a pool table but it’s in the back, you won’t see it in the main room.

Always excellent food. Service leaves much to be desired. Server/bartender too busy having a social club at the bar with her friends to pay attention to the tables and on phone….And they weren’t very busy.

We just had beers and listened to the band, so I can’t give a full rating. The band did a great job considering the keyboardist was covering the guitar parts also.
