Chauntelle Long

This was our 1st time here and I definitely look forward to returning. They have Happy Hour daily and food specials on certain days. The reason for 4 stars on food was because my sweet potato fries were slightly undone, still edible so I did not send them back, but will make the suggestion to cook them a tad longer when I return. Additionally, may I suggest to consider serving a side of ranch with the "Fire in the Hole" burger. It was delicious, however, I found my mouth definitely "on fire" at a certain point and while I was amused, I didn't plan my drink to food ratio well and would've appreciated a quick reprieve. Overall, I had a great time and again look forward to returning, Monica was awesome in the bar area and the 4 stars for atmosphere are because there wasn't anything spectacular although the decor was nice to look at. Thanks for a great visit, until next time 😉

Stopped in for the UH watch party (the Elite Eight game against Tennessee). Had a good time, service was friendly. Food was good. They were out of almost all of the craft beer. They had some good selections but again, they were out of almost everything. Good place to catch a game and they have some good food options. Nice vibe.

I know this place is going to be great. I've yet to try their first location, which I've heard is super good! I know this location is still ironing out the details, but I'm still going to review my personal experience. White cheese nachos appetizer: cheese wasn't hot or warm. The chips were delicious but nothing but broken pieces. The green salsa was not spicy, but it was flavorful. My husband's tacos tasted good. However, they need to fill those tacos more than just a spoonful and stop doubling up warmed up, straight out of the plastic tortilla bag. Who does that?!! I repeat, the corn tortillas came straight out of the plastic store bag. That was terrible. I ordered my steak "medium," and my steak came out rare & chewy, which was gross when it stretched, and I couldn't chew it. I spit it out twice (into napkins) & boxed it up to take home to my dog. The garlic mashed potatoes were delicious. The crack macoroni is boring. Absolutely NOTHING "crack" about it. Kraft macaroni out of a box, in my opinion. As for service, Carlos did his absolute best and went above and beyond. The tacos came out first and were cold, eaten, and gone before my meal came out. I did not appreciate that. No tea, soda was flat and straight out a 2 lt. bottle. My husband ordered a drink from the bar (I forgot), but it was DAMN GOOD! The place is nice. Major potential with a bar. There's also a bar outside with a sitting area. Nice chill area. Great for a group of friends. Fun music of all genres and not too loud. I feel everything was overpriced, but only because of the quality of the meal we received. It just didn't sit well with me.

This place was a favorite for a good burger. Unfortunately those days are probably long gone. $24.98 before tip for a basic cheeseburger and fries is tough to swallow. The burger was yummy and service was quick. I do appreciate management’s willingness to hear concerns as I voiced one during my visit and the reaction seemed to be genuine to them addressing it. I hope that is the case. Still a great place if the new prices are manageable within your budget.

The food was delicious and the server was very nice and attentive. She seemed new and did a great job. One beer that we wanted to try was out, but their Shiner Special Draft was $2 and great with the tasty burgers and fries.
