Monty B. • May 8, 2013Great bar and drinks. Lennie is the BEST bartender.

Shannon L. • March 27, 2018My husband enjoys the karaoke on Thursday night. Food is pretty good for a dive. Ikey’s Pizzeria is next door so you can order pizza if you want. It’s hard to find, way back in a strip mall.

Scott G. • October 23, 2013Taco Tuesdays here are probably even better than they were years ago, even have soft tacos. Bring your respirator, smoking is allowed. I'm not slamming smokers, my friends smoke but it is smokey. :)
