Me and my friend were waiting in line when the owner came out and and called the group that was waiting who were predominantly black people “animals”. I refuse to spend money at a place that views people in that way. Yikes !!!!

Probably the worst bar in Kalamazoo. Fights every weekend, the tacky red cups, the rude owner. I wouldn’t spend any of my money at this establishment ever again. Would give -100000 stars if I could.

I'm from wisconsin and i came here with my friends for the night. when we arrived at the door the bouncer was immediately aggressive and didn't even look at my id and told me i wasn't allowed in because it looked fake. we began to question him because it is in fact not fake and he began to catch an attitude with us so we asked for our stuff back where he then tried to hit my friend. not only did he commit aggravated assault but the owners did absolutely nothing. he's still working the front door when we left and i'm very positive he will continue to work there. very disappointed.

They catfished me. The giant sign on the front of their building says half of mac n cheese Monday. They are closed Mondays.

Entirely unsure how this place is still open, don't trust their pinned reviews. They used to discount meals and drinks if you left them a 5 star review. Place is disgusting, bugs in alcohol bottles, beer lines probably have never been cleaned, and good luck finding a spot where your shoes don't stick to the floor. Your immune systems deserves a 5 star review if you don't get sick with in 24 hours of leaving this disgusting excuse of a bar. Also, look up news reports Ybar while you're on here. Owners and management have no respect for women. YOU WILL BE TARGETED HERE.

if you're a woman, google this place before you go. the owner drugs and assaults women and the police don't care.

this place is still unsafe, for women and even men. do NOT go to this bar. it should not be open. the staff here can't even be trusted with a glass of water. i'm not joking. if you do go, bring a flask. sneak shots in. you can get food but do NOT buy drinks here.

A great place to go in here great music and have wonderful drinks all in all if you want to have an amazing time come here

This is a terrible establishment. They allow almost strictly underage girls to purchase drinks at the bar. This place will not survive the next 6 months. Wouldn’t be sure to try their “mixed drinks”.

The Latin Fridays they are doing now are awesome! Great place to meet with friends, have a good drink and dance salsa, cumbia, bachata, merengue… Lots of fun and good times!

This was my first time coming here, and I didn't know what to expect after all the news about this place. I was here to celebrate a friend's birthday, and the bartenders were awesome. They don't serve food late, but you're allowed to bring in campus food if you'd like. Will be back!

Came on Sunday, got here a little early before opening so we sat in the parking lot for about 15 minutes for them to open. Then at 3:00 the door is still locked. We wait another 5 minutes, then call and get no answers. The open signs are on snd blinking but we can’t get ahold of anyone.
