How can I put this….. Never go here! This place is a hole in the wall which I normally enjoy but that’s just not the case with this place. I live close and came here 4 times. Every time I regret I went. I kept thinking they it can’t be that bad and it will be better this time. My mistake. The beer on tap each time was warm and flat. The food is not even edible. I ordered a calzone and when it came out it was very big and looked amazing. After starting to eat it I quickly realized I was not going to be able to eat it. It was under cooked and still cold in the middle. On top of that the ingredients tasted and even smelt old. After 2 bites I was done. After that I decided ok I will come here and only have a beer or two but in a bottle which was fine. I then thought well I will try the chili cheese fries you can’t mess those up right? Wrong, when it came out I couldn’t believe that they brought this out looking like it did. To describe it the fries where the wide flat frozen cheap style fries on top of that was what appeared to look and taste like the cheap canned chili which was one step up from being called dog food. And for the best part which is always the cheese they decided to make this dish extra tasty to use sandwich cheese the type that is you unwrap each slice and its made mostly of oil and doesn’t melt no matter how much heat you give it. Ok ok so the beer and the food are terrible at least the place is nice right? Haha no. The place smells of dried beer and is worn out. The owner (who resemble Luigi) drinks whiskey at and behind the bar each time I have been there which is funny because he never eats or drinks anything else for obvious reasons. The good news is there is still a lot of commercial space left in this strip and soon enough something will come along and this place will be shut down. It’s a shame to see owners care so little about an establishment especially one with the potential this location could have. On my last note my friends and I call this place SH!#CAGOS and we agree this name is a better fit.
Is there a way to give negative stars? Talk about overpriced! We ordered pizza and wings and I went to pick them up, I took them to the car and realized they were already cold and the wings were not sauced... Never have complained about any small business before but I want others to stay away and save ur money.
My boyfriend and I spent his 21 birthday there last night, it's a great relaxed environment, the staff and patrons are both very kind and friendly! the live music on friday nights is amazing! I was really pleasantly surprised to find out they have two pool tables, a shuffle board set up, and two dart boards in the back! they all made for quite a fun night! the staff is really nice, and the service is fast. the patio is great for socializing, and everyone was really kind, you walk out and are welcomed warmly by everyone! you instantly know who the regulars are and they're kind and funny! The staff is seriously EXCELLENT, towards the end of our night someone bought my bf an irish car bomb, and that did him in! he ended up getting sick outside, and Parker, one of the staff helped me get him out and get our tab paid quickly, and even brought him a sprite on the house lol. (bf says aside from getting sick, that his 21st was awesome! and we'll DEFINITELY be back!!!)
My wife and I got a pizza right after the restaurant opened and it was terrible that was quite some time ago, so we saw that they had added gyro's to the menu so we decided that we would try the gyro's. The gyro's were the worst that we have ever had. The meat was very over done (it looked like they did not slice off the hard over cooked to get to the good meat.), the sauce did not taste right and it took over 30 minutes to get the two sandwiches and one large order of fries (large is a relative term, I am just not sure what it is relative to as it was more like a medium) the pita's were soggy and doughy. We will not go back for a third over priced bad meal.
Can't see myself ever coming here for any sporting event... Took 15 min to get our drinks after ordering them. Took them even longer to bring my wife's iced tea (which tasted terrible). Ordered our food from their extremely limited menu and waited for almost an hour with not a single person coming to check in us or let us know where our food was. Maybe that was due to the fact they had one kid working the dining area and he could barely remember his name nevermind people's orders. This is the first time I've ever been upset enough to post a review on Google. Thats how bad this experience was. We never did get our food because we were all so hungry we left and went next door to moon china.
