Great vibe. Our server was really good…very attentive and it was busy too. We had a party of 6. Had appetizers of Nachos(had bacon, scallions and a ranch sauce over it…it may have had a few jalapenos) that were really good, Ahi Tar Tar was very good, and the tator tots…. for dinner had the flank steak with chimmchurri sauce. Was good but not great. The flank steak was a bit tough to cut and a bit chewy. Not sure if they didn’t cut against the grain because my flank steaks are always tender you can cut with fork so idk. Everyone had beer except for me…I had a whiskey mule…. would not suggest it…

Chili was great! The spicy chicken “captain” was good. It could use creamy sauce to remove dryness. The atmosphere was nice with open air setting. Our waitress was fun , interested in communicating with us in sign language.

Great food, fast service and different places to sit. The server was super nice and respectful. They were able to serve a group of 38 motorcyclists with no problem.

I have always liked it here and last night (8/25) made me like it even more and have the utmost respect for the owners and their employees. Long story short, my friend (or so I thought) drank too much, started being super creepy and the owners Roland & Jamie, & their A team employees Amber & John all made sure I was ok. They were not annoyed one bit and instead were incredibly kind and made sure I was ok. They let me stay after they closed to make sure creeper was gone and even said “you’re leaving with all of us and we’re walking you to your car.” I cannot say thank you enough to all of them. Also, the food is consistently yummy here, the drinks are always refreshing & it’s super clean! Everyone needs to go here. If only more humans and businesses were like them.

Flank Steak with Chimichurri was next level, absolute enjoyed it, completely forgot I had a drink. Bartender Jon is quick with his drinks and has great customer service. Definitely recommend it.

Between the four of us, we ordered the El Patron burger, the Assistant Chief burger, and two orders of their prime rib special. Everything was very, very good, and the prices were fair. I especially enjoyed my El Patron, and the fries were great. The restaurant is very loud, and they could do a better job with masking and social distancing, and it may be time for some new furniture and flooring. Our server Brad was great. Highly recommend for good food in a casual setting.

Did not have a great experience. Good vibes walking in initially with a very quick greeting from two different staff members sitting people as they arrived. Bar had 5 others sitting at it when I sat down. The problem is that Seana, the bartender was everywhere it seemed. I wasn’t even acknowledged for about 6 minutes, to include no eye contact. Finally got a beer, didn’t need a menu or a second though. Never was checked on until maybe 10 minutes later once the beer was empty and she was done making her rounds with other customers she seemed familiar with already who received more attention and quicker attention clearly. I asked to try a second beer which was given as a sample properly after, but didn’t even wait 10 seconds for me to try it or see what I thought. Waited another 7 minutes before being acknowledged to tell her it wasn’t for me and I would just have the same as last time. Promptly brought to me, along with the check I requested simultaneously. Card dropped on the check immediately as she brought it over. Ignored it for another 5 minutes when I was clearly ready to go. After it was finally taken care of, “Thank you thank you” was the best hospitality that could be mustered I guess. Unfortunate experience for what seemed like a promising place. Wasn’t even busy for this to be warranted it seemed. Can’t change this rating until proven otherwise.

Excellent service at the bar. Derek was awesome at keeping up with us and everyone else’s orders and does it with the kind of attitude that makes you want to stop and stay a while.

This place is awesome. The bartender Seana is amazing. Your drinks will not go empty. Their daily specials are delicious. Everything from teriyaki salmon to blackened chicken. Trust me, try it. Everyone that works here are amazing people. This is a modern Cheers. Where everyone knows your name. Great rewards if you sign up.. I look forward to going there everytime to try something new.
