The service was amazing especially by the bartender his name is Tony. His charisma, and the way he cares for his customers especially his bartending is just top tier. He's a vibe to have around

We ordered wings and they were very good. We also ordered steak & cheese sandwiches that could have been good except they were heavily, over salted. Nikki was the bartender, and she was great. It is definitely a dive bar....but a good one if you like that kind of thing.

The only problem was $24 dollars Long Island iced tea I think it was pricey it's not New York that's the only think I didn't like

Nikki was amazing, provide great service and conversation while our group waited on a layover for our next flight. Food was on point. Couldn’t have picked a better spot in NJ.

Didn't think I would find such a comfortable bar with great food music and drinks while working in Newark. Boy was I wrong, this place was awesome. Nicki the bartender there was great and never let my drink get to empty!!

I wasn't a fan of this place in the earlier years (2014/2017) prior to me actually walking in and experiencing till my cousin gave me a tour in a sense... I got the hang of the atmosphere here with their awesome staff from Tony ( the fly guy of the night) Eric is who you'd be a lil afraid to deal with as a bartender (but has been the opposite he's a great vibe he kinda does lil tricks as he prepares your drinks) and of course Gina (Ms. Always on point she'll fix any issue you have) also Steve that's my boy (1 of the better pool players in the whole staff) when I first started coming.....Now their newer hires like Angie (the beautiful smiley girl next door) is such a great addition to the new staff there's Also D (she's a fun attentive barmaid) as well as Nicky (the Italian boss you can tell she's a boss when y'all get aquatinted) also Sacha (she's very nice moves quick she can look distracted but she's always on how can I help you mode when she senses eye contact lol) and their cooks ....man my boy Frank is a menace (he has things out in a jiffy looking like an Instagram post ) can't forget Jericho ( he's the coolest nice guy always polite and respectful )Ahhh you have also have Luis (he's kinda misunderstood but very nice as well he can get food out ASAP too great quality staff.... And can't forget the security....they have control of the cool vibes and keep an eye out for any peeps that maybe causing a disturbance....oh man when you have DJ's here this place will take you back to the 90's and the early 2000's much respect to DJ Rome DJ Kevin and the homie DJ Berto that will cook up the newer vibe of 2008 to current music ?? if you're looking for an inexpensive night with great service choices and people here's your place I love that there's no dress code and the atmosphere is so diverse that you're definitely making a friend or 2 as you come in more frequently

All right! First stop in NJ First impression was great walked in and had the place to myself i wanted a local watering hole and was expecting bar food Forsure so don't come at me. Bartender was super sweet and all smiles! She walked me off the ledge when i almost ordered the personal pizza and highlighted the thin crust being extra thin, I thank her for that! I went off the complete opposite side and ordered the buffalo shrimp but ask for them plain (sauce always makes them super soggy in my experience. Unfortunately still came out with sauce, she ordered me another basket without sauce before i could say anything. But they were over cooked and just tasted like an old fryer. I was given a happy hour menu but charged $10 and $11 for the same well drink tab was over $30 for happy hour shrimp and 2 well thinks menu added up to $18 All around service was great but left unsatisfied
