So yesterday was my second Tuesday in a row with Joling behind the bar and what a TREAT it has been! She greets you with a friendly smile, is efficient a great multi-tasker and so easy on the eyes! I do not know how Kim finds such quality employees! In this day and age of LACKADAISICAL service at best, Joling offers a level of service that is beyond reproach! Count me in as a Tuesday regular from now on!

I just moved to the area and have visited "the door"several times. Let me start by saying that this review is based on the targeted bullying and harassment I have experienced here from Lauren B. For whatever reason this bartender holds some grudge thats solely one sided because I don't know this person. Im a business professional and come here for a drink and food NOT to be harassed. I made an effort to nip this so I brought it to the owners attention. I was told cameras were to be reviewed and it would be addressed. Let me be clear I have had great service from other bartenders and Gloria, JP, Dominique all know me and can support our interactions have always been good. However, one day for absolutely NO REASON I was there when a big bully man walks up to me talking fast telling me to grab my stuff and that Im kicked out. This man wasn't wearing a security shirt and had just arrived. I was very humiliated and embarrassed when he didn't identify himself and tried to grab me with no explanation. I was told by other customers his name, Vincent. Twice this has happened to me with NO REASON OR JUSTIFICATION. This has happened at the start of this persons shift and it's clear this is calculated. I was told by this man I am not "allowed or welcomed here on Mondays, Wednesdays or Sundays shouting days and hours at me!!??? So basically during this persons shift "coming from the owner" were his exact words. How dare you even provide me your schedule to follow in visiting and how is this girl allowed to target a paying customer. Is it because of my gender that you're a hater and im being targeted or because im a latina. Or are you telling me you allow your bartenders to dictate me what hours Im welcomed in your establishment? She allegedly hand wrote a sign with a smiley face about refusing service to anyone. People talk and well no matter what a sign says- no restaurant or bar can simply refuse to serve you based on a whim or any reason which could be discriminatory. It's honestly the most ridiculous thing to even put the energy to write a review on this establishment but I had to voice the fact that this is extremely immature, unwarranted, and completely targeted.

This place is great at all times. Either getting off work week days or the weekend I always like to stop by. Saturdays I recommend. Also Joling on Thursday is so sweet and helpful on picking out meals, like she can read your tummy eyes. Yes I will stop by again. Saturday night fun and grub!

Typical neighborhood bar. Food was made well, but fairly basic. It was a football playoff Sunday, there could have been another bartender to assist the one that was doing her best to keep up with everyone's requests. Overall a good experience, will likely head back if in the Tustin area.
We want more Makenzie and Lauren! They are an awesome duo. Great service and food. We will definitely be back to look at Makenzies ass!!!

Kim reached out to me, gathered some info, and made this right. We were able to determine it was an honest mistake. Thank you Kim!

I think yelp is a little bit broken here.... Nice place....way better than the 3.5 star rating. Def not a dive bar. Not a boob bar either. Clean, efficient, and respectable.

Absolutely great service. Dominique is gorgeous and so welcoming. Could not be a most gorgeous. Mandy was equally amazing. The managing women here are amazing as they focus on service. Coming back for sure

Not my fist time here and definitely won't be my last. Today I learned that their food comes from the pass through window with the American Grub restaurant next door! If you've never eaten there - I recommend. The ambience is adorable and rustic - same as the restaurant. Service was exceptional. Gloria was the bartender and she is quick and such a friendly gal. She kept up with EVERYONE with a smile on her face. Such a joy. Next time, I think we will eat on this side so hubby can have his Mich Uktra with food. :)
What can I say, It's the swing door. I've been coming here for decades. It a much better and cleaned up place now, but I do miss the risqué bartender outfits.Drinks are good, and there is pool and music.
