Chris and Calvin are awesome!! P.S. if you’re a dog lover, 6 dogs showed up to the bar within the 1 hour we were there

I'm quite sad. I've been here a few times & they always have the best drinks with a good atmosphere & adorable servers. The food is usually ok, it's not the best in town, but it's usually EDIBLE. Today I got the all American burger, and my friend got fish & chips. We could barely eat anything but the fries. We didn't want to be rude, as we both also work in the restaurant industry-- but this was the first time in my life I've ever even contemplated asking for my meal comped. It was foul. I come home, and have been experiencing symptoms of food poisoning since. TMI but I've been glued to my toilet for quite some time now. I'm disappointed & also ill.

Waited 45 minutes to receive a text at 8:20 that we would not be seated. Pass on this one.

The food here is really good and they have a nice selection of beers on tap plus a few drink options. The staff is always nice, but the service can be slow (like most places in T-town). However, we stopped by a few days ago and it is apparent they are trying hard to improve - the server was attentive and the manager was checking in frequently. Let's hope they keep getting better because we like this place!

Cool place - extremely polite and hard-working staff and bartenders; typical offerings on draft and some house items; convenient and spacious location - live bands upstairs, hangouts down below. Next up - trying the actual food. ?

Appreciation they say is an application for more. if i fail to acknowledge you it'll shows how ungrateful i am. I can't be less grateful to a woman who God has used in blessing me and my family in general. I was introduced to Mrs Mariel Ramsey few months back Right now I know how much I can boast off about my financial state. she helped me to manage the little capital I invested with and I made so much profit for myself and my family On Forex Trading. Thank you so much Mrs Mariel Ramsey God Bless You. If you are also finding it difficult trading for yourself contact her now through this Email: [email protected]

Two words -- FROZEN FRIDAY! They have amazing frozen margaritas for under $5 every single Friday. December 2021 was the first time that I visited this hidden gem in downtown Tuscaloosa... it was for a holiday party so limited menu but the options were solid and the food was good. So, I had to go back on a regular night to try out different food and when I read the menu and seen CRAB CAKES I about lost my mind because I love me a great crab cake. I sat at the bar and had two of the best servers ever -- Bentley and K. Lewis! They are amazing and helped me navigate throughout the menu to make a decision and I decided on the crab cake sliders -- sorry I didn't take a picture because I was hungry and I ate those things They were so good and cooked to perfection. Seasoning was perfect and the bread complimented the crab cake very nicely. The sauce that was on it was a little spicy but not too spicy. The portions were enough for me and I had a side of fries with it. My go to frozen margarita since the holiday party was the blue raspberry and I did try other flavors but I highly recommend the blue raspberry as well as the mud slide shots. They have inside seating and outside seating. They also have an upstairs area that has games and entertainment. The downstairs and the kitchen close at a specific time but the upstairs and the bar in the upstairs area stays open until 2 AM if I'm remembering correctly. Nice little spot to hang. Good food. Great drinks. Good vibes.

Ya'll gotta try this spot... AWESOME craft beers on tap. The owner/operator and the staff are the real deal when it comes to service. Food selections are all house made and are amaze-balls! Weekends are always busy, but we went for lunch during the week now that they're open. Had a great time!

Tried this restaurant for the first time today. Honestly I was really disappointed.It took forever to get 4 meals to-go, even though it wasn’t busy at all. I mean the waiters were just kinda standing around. When we did hear about why it was taking so long they told us they had over-done one of the meals and it had to be remade.When we finally got our food (we ordered take out) we got home to discover that one of the burgers was missing the top bun and the side Mac and cheese for another meal wasn’t there. Our waiter had told us she double checked the meal. But she obviously didn’t.The quality of the food was ok. We will definitely not be eating here again.

Place is horrible. Waited an hour and half for my food. Then waiter tried to tell me I didn't order from him. I reminded him when I did and then he blamed it on the kitchen. Sandwich chicken was obviously from Sisco foods yuck. On top of it he had the audacity to actually charge me for my food. The meal should have been comped...so I just didn't tip. I will never return.?

Poor service. Horrible food quality - frozen, not fresh and overly fried foods. Also don't expect your shrimp to be cleaned/deveined. Lastly, poor management - don't expect managemnt to offer any solutions to the issues you bring to their attention. Definitely would not recommend or be back.

If I could have one meal for the rest of my life it would be the rocket chicken. Also Mary is the best server I’ve ever had. 10/10 would recommend dining at this great establishment

The food was great…ALMOST as great as our wonderful server mary nall! She was so attentive and had such a good attitude, made the whole thing such a memorable experience. Will definitely be back again soon for some more gator tacos but mostly to see my new friend mary nall.

Sloane Rockwell

Not only was I completely impressed with my meal but to top it all off I had an angel of a server! She made the entire experience memorable and enjoyable. Full of hilarious jokes and great food recommendations, if you’re dining at the grocery you MUST request Mary Nall as your server. If you’re reading this mary nall just know I absolutely loved my rocket chicken. I’ll be back.

I come here almost once a week to get a cheeseburger and I must say they are consistently delicious. My server, Mary Nall, who I request each time is THE BEST. she is so welcoming and always is so polite.
