Came here last weekend to watch VGK play game 3 against the Canadiens in the playoffs. Had arrived maybe 50 minutes prior to puck drop and there was still quite the amount of tables open still. I had ended up sitting in the area to the left when you enter the bar in the high back chairs near the "big" TV (4 screens combined) and 2 smaller ones on the side. Had noticed the bottom left screen was out of sync with the other 3, but overall this set of tv's were slower than the smaller ones on the side. The waitress was decently attentive until the game started, then it was a bit hard to find her.
The music here was louder than other bar's I've been to in the area, more towards the volume of a club. It was a bit hard to talk to friends, ended up getting a headache from the ear piercing loudness (didnt help a speaker was like right above my head too)
Had ordered a 24? Ounce shock top to drink while waiting then same size with a Guinness. $7 each. My friend and I had ordered off the happy hour menu (3-6pm) the "animal style tater tots" and "pork belly Bourbon biscuits" to share
The "animal style tater tots" was crispy tater tots topped with ground beef, American cheese, grilled onions, and house-made thousand island dressing. It was their version of In n Out's animal style fries. It was, overall decent. He had called it an "imitation with McDonald's ingredients" Lol. I didn't think this one was that bad.
The "pork belly Bourbon biscuits" consisted of 2 bourbon braised pork belly biscuits with house-made honey hot sauce, Cajun slaw, pickled vegetables, and Cajun aioli, served with house-made blackened kettle chips. This was the weird one. The pork belly itself was decent, seemingly maybe deep fried, giving it a nice crust. The "house made honey hot sauce" was pretty much Red Hot sauce, and it was drenched in it. Cajun slaw, pickled vegetables aka jalapenos were decent. Biscuit was decent, since i like biscuits anyway.
Friend had also ordered a bread pudding, and chicken sliders. Bread pudding was a bit overly soft? Not really a fan of bread pudding anyway. Chicken sliders was like a chicken tender slider. Cant say much about it Lol.
We ended up watching the game on the side TVs instead of the big combo screen. Pretty unwatchable on the big one cuz of the unsynced TVs and it being slower than the rest overall.
Overall, we ended up switching venues cuz it was too loud to talk and we all had headaches from it.
