Juice MagazineJuly 15, 2013On Monday nights, martinis drop to $4. The bar also does a martini tour, so if you try them all (not in one night), you earn a free martini glass. Read more
On Monday and Tuesday nights there is only one person working. If its busy, you can't expect table service.. Please don't be so quick to bad mouth a business, be more observant.. Thanks!
Nicole WilkeMay 24, 2012We actually had great service here tonight, and got to see the end of The High Crest's set. Crab cakes are definitely a must-try
Sounds like Brett g is a bitch so the bartenders picked up on his attitude. It was busy as hell, try knowing the names of bartenders n being polite, asshole.
Love the Blueberry Splash Martini. Like Adventure? Try the Boston Tea Party!
Alicia KDecember 16, 2012When a patron orders a gin martini, the bartender should not assume the patron wants it dirty. Only make it dirty when asked...
Jill CollinsApril 17, 2012Horrible service. Took like 20 minutes just to get noticed that we were there and we had to move to the bar to get service. Ran out of a special. Overall -- SUCKS.
I didn't pay $5 cover for a way inflated bar tab and terrible service both upstairs and down - straighten it out gentlemen

"It’s a popular destination for bikers (both motor and foot-powered), with traditional domestics dominating the list. Cheap and cold goes a long way at GTs. http://dmreg.com/VBOQbg"
