Lavaca Street Bar - South Lamar

First time visiting last night. We were looking for a cool neighborhood bar and we found it. Inside was a fun atmosphere, very sports bar-ish with plenty of TVs for games, plenty of seating, and a large bar at the back. Great for game days. Then there's the food from Thunder Chief. Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit. Elevated, unique bar food is an understatement. I was pleasantly surprised to find the variety and uniqueness on the menu. From smash burgers to tacos to Asian influenced items. Had the Korean fried chicken sandwich, as good as I had hoped, and Korean wings, 10/10. Bo, Donald, and Chef Kyle all provided exceptional service which made the evening that much better! food: 10/10 service: 10/10 atmosphere: 10/10

THIS IS A BAR THAT SHOWS HOCKEY… Wild. It is so refreshing to walk into a bar and have a place that can actually show an NHL game on the NHL package. I’ve been looking for a place that will show the Blues games and they had it on with no problem. I imagine they would put any other game on as well. Thank you Donald for the service and the fantastic management for making it happen. The Blues are a very important part of my family, even when they are terrible, so thank you!!!! 10/10 recommend for service, food, and drinks.

Agree with all other reviews about rude bartenders. Aaliyah was immediately rude over a paper ID. The physical ID (not even expired yet) was accompanied with the paper ID to provide 2 forms of identification. She couldn’t even be bothered to verify authenticity. I understand businesses can decide their own policies, but there’s no reason to be so hostile right off the bat. There’s way better bars with welcoming employees in Austin! Don’t waste your time or money here!

I received a quick response and apology for our bad experience. I'm being given a refund. Thank you Josh. Extremely rude female bartender. We asked 3x for the Coca-Cola bottle that I prepaid. After the third time the bigger guy delivering food got snappy & said it's not his job. Welll the food was out & the drink was not delivered. No refills on my sparkling water, which probably came from a soda fountain. No one came back to check on us. Our food could have been better we left around 70% untouched. When I ordered a cocktail the female bartender got snappy & said they don't accept paper ID, which I understand. The moment we sat down we did not feel welcome. But we stayed hoping the food would overshadow the rude staff. If you're craving a tasty burger & good service just go down the street to in-n-out. I usually tip 25% or more, but this time I did the standard 18%. Don't work in the service industry when you lack people skills. Maybe it's my fault for going to such a low class establishment, at least the bathrooms were clean when we washed all the grease off our fingers.

Love the service here, the bartenders are legit the best. Beau and Donald are certified pros! They always turn my knicks game on for me as soon as they see me walk in the door, sad part is the leadership decided to cancel the NBA League pass. Super sad story. I hope it has a happy ending and they can get it back asap, they've been pushing to get it back for me and all my friends that come here to watch the games at least 4 times a week. BRING BACK NBA LEAGUE PASS PLEASE!

What a good place to visit. I am from Oregon and and everything was great. Stephanie is one of the kindest, most unbelievable people you can ever ask to have serve you a great meal of drink. It will be my place every time I visit. 😀 to Allen/allan the food is unbelievable. It really is the very best. Cannot wait to come back. Awesome atmosphere. Great game vibe. Thank you Stephanie!

Personally, I prefer the Domain location. We tried S Austin today before starting our afternoon. The food was good, but not fantastic. We were routinely asked if we needed anything. They checked often, which was great! With the games, it was just so loud inside. Typical of a bar, but midday Saturday....one would hope of a volume where people aren't scream laughing.

Great smash burgers and service. We accidentally ordered a double order of fries because the online ordering website duplicated part of our order without us knowing. When the extra fries showed up, I explained to the cook it was a mistake but told him it was my fault for messing up the online order. 5 minutes later he came back and reimbursed the fries. Small thing but goes a long way and wanted to thank whatever cook was working saturday night 10/25.

Intriguing mini gastropub with a great set up to watch sports and have a fun sports bar experience. What surprised me the most was the chicken wings. They are brined with tea before being fried and sauced. The tea brine adds a unique flavor that I've never had in a wing and I was pleasantly surprised. The buffalo flavor didn't really taste like buffalo at all but it was still a very delicious flavor that I enjoyed. The ghost pepper ranch rub was not spicy as I expected from the name but it was also very enjoyable. I would come back to the place for the wings alone. We also ordered the Kpop nachos and I wasn't a fan. It had too much salt (maybe a strategy to order more beer?). There needed to be an acidic element to it, perhaps a unique take on kimchi to really bring the Korean flavors together in nacho form. Ordering from the QR code on the table made the experience more convenient although this option was limited to food only. We still had to order with a waiter and give a card to keep a tab open like the traditional bar scenario. If there was a way to limit multiple transactions, it would make the consumer's experience more convenient. Overall, we enjoyed the good vibes, cold drinks, and delicious wings. Check this place out if you and a group of friends want to get together for the game.

We stopped by Lavaca Street Bar for March Madness and it was pretty busy but there were still plenty of open tables. We were starving and ordering from Thunderchief inside and wow...the food was so good! We ordered the chicken sandwich and double cheeseburger and we couldn't decide which we liked more-they we're both delicious and the portion was quite big. The sauce on the chicken sandwich pulled it all together. We also ordered some simple drinks from the bar and the employees were quick and kind.

Had the Monday night smash burger special; $5.00 down from the normal $11.00 which is a bargain. Fries are extra which is fine. $4.00 for fries. Found it funny that spicy ketchup was $0.50 more. Reg and spicy costs the same in the store. Want ranch with your fries? That's a $1.00. Want onion on your burger? That'll cost extra too!! Lettuce? Yep, you'll pay for that. Whoops, I didn't already say, the burger was very good. Super tasty. I'd order the burger again for sure!! Just take it like it comes.

Solid sports bar. The staff is friendly, helpful and do their best to check on all tables to ensure everyone has a fresh drink when needed. The food (provided by an in-house restaurant called Thunder Chief) has a few all-stars and some duds. I would highly recommend the burger, regular or sweet potato fries, or the Asian nachos.

This is such a great place to get a beer, watch and game, and eat! The thunderchief restaurant inside Lavaca is great. You can place your order online while you have a drink and then they bring it right to you. We love the platter they have that has an array of appetizers perfect for sharing.

Great place, close to downtown with good drinks and amazing food. Food menu is delicious, creative, and daily specials make it a great place to be.

Went in here and they were just flat out rude. They were treating us like my friends an I were causing an issue when we did nothing but look at our phones and talk to each other civilly. Just felt like they didn't like us or want our business even though we gave them no reason to be treated like that. Left after just a drink because they refused to wait on us as well.

Sat on the outdoor patio and enjoyed a nice spread of food. We didn't realize that the dishes would be so large, and could have done without the Arugula salad (since it was similar to the Thai salad, but not as awesome). The dishes were seasoned well. Fried Brussels, wings, the Lucille Torta (in a bowl on riced cauliflower!), and Thai salad were amazing. Will be back for more.

This is some of my favorite drunk food In downtown Austin. The steak po boys are incredible and drunk me doesn't care how much they cost. The sweet potato fries are a must. The shrimp po boy is also good. Super filling. Chicken quesadilla is always good. Comes with some quac and sour cream. I always order wayyy too much food and the leftovers are always a delight as well. Use a toaster oven. The location can get super busy. But like I said I come here for drunk food so don't mind the chaos.

This place has the most incredible service at a sports bar in the ATX. I had to tell them I was done.

The bartenders were super nice and very inviting. The Asian infusion nachos were def good with the won ton chips. They run a $5 fried chicken sandwhich special on Friday's which is the day me and my wife visited. It might have been an off night but the chicken was soaked in grease and the bun as well. You could literally see pools of grease on the breading exterior and the it bread and chicken breading kept breaking off every time I tried to pick up and eat. Besides the $5 fried chicken sandwhich I would def recommend for anyone on south lamar liking for a great sports pub with very reasonable priced food

Just saw a dog piss on the floor. When I mentioned to bar employee, they just laughed. They didn't even clean it up. Not sure why places that prepare and serve food don't understand that state law forbids dogs inside. Will not be back as I question the health standards of this establishment and there are plenty of other places to go that get it.

I'm Impressed, honestly delicious. Got a small order of fries, hush puppies, vegetable taco and it all was spectacular. Fantastic flavors, great presentation, perfect preparation... Really can't ask for more. Finally a good taco place in Austin

First time here and have to say I enjoyed the experience! Good food, good people , friendly staff. I really enjoyed the wings. If you're looking for a sports bar this place is awesome

The food here was amazing. I went with a couple friends, all of our burgers were good, and omg the tots were amazing. The tots were the best thing by far. It wasn't greasy or salty, it was layered perfectly, and everything came out hot and fresh. We got a couple rounds of drinks and our tab wasn't bad at all. My cranberry tequilas were $3 each, and all of the drinks were made good. My biggest peeve with this place was the service. When we arrived, there was barely anyone there, and we still didn't get attended to very well. One of the people that would help us, had a habit of walking off in the middle of what we had to say and gave us the wrong things. Other than that, good food.

The worst place I have ever been. This place was terrible, the worse food I had in a while, their specialty "Paloma" was not good. I was disappointed in the drinks, food, and the whole experience left me sad. I wont be back, even if I was paid to go back. Food: birria tacos (2) worse than Pepe tacos Buffalo wings - horrible taste, somehow greasy. The only good thing was that it was Tuesday so it was $1 modelo beer, but even the beer wasn't as cold as expected for a bar.

Lavaca Street Bar is an interesting place where the bartenders serve full alcohol service at the tables, but the food is ordered separately from a window. We were expecting more full service in total, but it seems like two restaurants. I would give the bar a 4, and the food a 2, so I averaged at a 3. All the staff for both spots were super friendly, although we had to wait a bit to get someone to come to the food window. The draught beer was excellent. I had an Avery blood orange that was awesome. The reason I give the food a 2 is that I thought it was super overpriced for the quality. We had a shrimp poboy, and it really cannot be called a poboy. The sandwich including the fried shrimp batter is not cajun, and the bread was more of a wheat style. We also ordered blackened and grilled catfish (which we liked), but the fried shrimp platter was also a bust with unflavored, tough shrimp. The red beans and rice were so hot my parents could not eat them. The sweet potato fries were awesome. I would go back here for the great draught beer selection and get some sweet potato fries to nibble on. I wouldn't go back for dinner.

Best bar food EVER! We love &frequent this place! The staff is ALWAYS fun &friendly. We can bring our dog & sit outside sometimes too! The tacos &fresh fish special are ALWAYS good! The veggie of the day is always good. I don't even ask anymore what it is. We always order it. I also like trying their (my opinion) "weird" & WONDERFUL flavor beers on draft (watermelon, strawberry-rhubarb sour & yeti s'mores style!?) I tried all of them & had trouble deciding! Come& try for yourself!

This is going to be my honest review . After reading a few reviews I decided to bring my wife and 2 dogs. The parking under the building is nice. Didn't have problems. Found myself some outdoor seating and was greeted by a hostess with drink and food menu. Decided to grab a beer and mixed drink which were good. ( GO TO HAPPY HOUR GREAT PRICES ) . They brought the drinks to the table and you order food inside yourself . The Hostess did bring ice water out for my 2 dogs and they didn't have any problems with them . FOOD REVIEW: yes it's a bit pricy for the venue by a smudge . However it has a different take on Mexican Street Food. It's rather tasty but not traditional. I highly recommend the Tacos. The torta was average but next time will be tacos only. For being not busy it was a nice place to have a drink and meal.

Soooo many TVs to watch your fav team. The food is delicious and the portion sizes are HUGE. Drinks are average. It can be packed and loud meaning slower service. A solid sports bar.

ive never been here before and i was blown away by the courteous and informative behavior of both donald and wayne! i ordered drinks w modifications that they executed perfectly and they made the whole experience so welcoming and comfortable for me and my partner. they had such good conversation with us and and made us feel so at home :-) i will be 10000% returning in the near future. the space is so cute both indoors and out! smoking friendly patio w tables set up automatically for every party size :))

Pretty big bar for being located in down town. We came here to watch an NBA game on a Friday night and found a seating area easily in front of a TV. As soon as we sat down, we were greeted and served even though the place seemed busy. The server will help with your beverage choices and the food was ordered near the enterance and brought to your table. Food and drinks came out fast. Drinks: I got the Easciders Original and the Thirsty Goat Amber. Both tasted good, but preferred the Eastcider Originals which tasted like Apple Cider! Food: __ Nachos & Fried Chicken. Fried Chicken was fried well and pretty crispy. It came with HOT fries, so watch out.

"I didn't know there was a Lavaca Street Bar on South Lamar" I wonder how many people realize there was a Lavaca Street Bar on South Lamar. I was suppose to meet a friend at Lavaca Street Bar during the World Cup. I thought we were going to meet up at the downtown location. After the match barely started, I wonder where my friend was. I texted my friend and he said he was at the Lavaca Street Bar at the South Lamar location, hence the quote. Me and my friend were the only ones there. It was strange having the bar to ourselves. But the layout of the place is really awesome with long tables in majority of the place, TVs everywhere, and there's an outside patio with TVs. It's basically an ideal place to watch a game. You can't have a Lavaca Street Bar with out the Turf and Surf po boys as their kitchen.

Cool sports bar with ample outdoor and indoor seating. Very casual place. If you're looking for a casual date night for some sports bar drinks and casual dining, I'd suggest this place. What I like: -Plenty of big flat screen TVs to watch sports on -Lots of seating -Service was great -Drinks were OK -Turf n Surf Po Boy they've tamed up with is yummy -Turf n Surf Po Boy makes delicious white queso, salsa and guacamole.Highly recommend. They gave us so much chips, we got full :) -Parking was easy (free garage connected to it) -Good music and good things on the TVs What I didn't like: -Was extremely loud in there to where I had to yell across the table at my husband to hear each other.

Good sports bar atmosphere and the food is great at Thunder Chief. HIGHLY recommend the wonton nachos! They are awesome.

Showed up for a late night (11:30ishpm) burger and beer - beer was great and the burger was a classic. In fact, probably best late night burger I've had, step aside in n out and Whataburger!

While visiting Austin on a business trip I stopped in here to have lunch while I waited for my room to be ready. You seat yourself in the bar area and then ordered your food up at a window and get a number for it to be delivered when it was ready. The blackened chicken tacos were delicious and they're also quite large considering they were inexpensive. The chicken wings as well as the sweet potato fries were also great. The vibe was fun and relaxed and there was plenty of seating.

First of all: love this place. The new restaurant "thunder chief" has an outstanding smash burger, the bar always has good craft drafts on, and despite being a sports bar they can and do make a solid version of just about any cocktail you could ask for. The bartender with glasses and a big beard in particular makes a mean NY sour. Great spot to go watch American football, European football, or any other sport for that matter.

I love this bar, however, I was surprised to learn that the separate food establishment located inside (which is an important distinction, by the way) doesn't serve their very delicious nacho plate until 4 pm. I came there with every expectation that I could order anything off the menu at 2:30 and not have an issue, but was disappointed to have to settle for something else. The bar manager John (again, not in any way affiliated with the food establishment) is an extremely nice guy and understood my very minor inconvenience. I really hope that something changes on that front, but I otherwise had a great experience for everything bar related. I'd recommend this bar to everyone, also noting the caveat listed above.

Asked if they had disposable masks before entering, was told they didn't. Wrapped a shirt around my face to use as a mask and entered. Walked to the table then was given a disposable mask after being told they didn't have any. Then the waiter proceeded to stand extremely close to us while taking our drink order. I ordered a water than asked for a separate tab. Then was mocked for asking for a separate tab for a water when I hadn't ordered food my food yet. At that point I stood up to leave, while leaving myself and the group I was with was harassed by both the waiter and bartender while exiting. Refuse to spend money at an establishment that treats its customers in this manner, especially during a pandemic when restaurants are struggling to survive. Our group was 6 people and there were 5 people there. Not sure why were met with such attitude from entry but I will never go back and spend my money there. Luckily, the broken spoke saloon next store was open and extremely friendly. Also had a more reasonable menu and the service was excellent.

The bartender was very friendly and my Old Fashioned was really good. Nice dive stop, with a BBQ place attached for quick bites.

Lavaca is an awesome soccer bar that has great drinks! The bar is a 4, the separate food service option and output is a 3. It is SO expensive for something mediocre, my suggestion would be to do apps and eat dinner elsewhere or skip food. We enjoyed the calamari, two different sauces, a classic marinara and a mango sauce, so yum! We also got a blackened catfish PoBoy with red beans and rice and the blackened catfish plate with the greens. Honestly, it was just okay. The greens were overly peppery with no other flavor, the red beans and rice is more soup-like than normal RB&R. The catfish was fresh but just plain with the seasoning. I felt like $60 including tip for the meal left me a tad disappointed. I will be back but fill up on food prior!

Staff is great! Drink prices are great! People who complain about having to wear a mask should not be allowed to write reviews. Especially when the staff is risking their lives for you to have fun during covid. Have some damn respect and stop being an inconsiderate jerk. Plus this is for R.G. Who complained about forgetting his mask and not being allowed in, the pandemic has been going on long enough for you to bring your own mask. When this pandemic started they had masks and people were not just taking one. So instead of complaining about a business not providing you a mask months after the pandemic you should not be allowed out in public during this. Have respect for the staff who treats you well as long as you're not a selfish inconsiderate jerk.

OMG! This place is the bomb!! We come to Austin every year for New Year's Eve. We were driving around trying to find a place to watch the Dallaa Cowboy game, and every place had a wait or terrible parking. I found this place on Yelp & it is amazing!!! Has it's own parking garage with easy, free parking. We were able to get a table and they have plenty of TV's to watch the football games!! The service is excellent and Devon was so friendly and explained the whole menu to us. Several waiters came by to check on us while we were here, making sure our drinks were full!! The menu is really good, offering many options! I ordered the rib eye poboy sandwich with mushrooms & it was amazing, cooked to perfection. My husband ordered buffalo chicken tenders and cilantro fries, and they were delicious. My son ordered rib eye steak nachos, they were so good too, as were the sweet potato fries. So yummy! What a great find for food & football!! What a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon!

I wish I could give a review on the food. I wish I could even review the drinks. Unfortunately our first experience with our waitress was so over-the-top rude that we all stared at each other in disbelief and walked out. We walked in and we were immediately greeted by a male employee who explained the dynamics of the place. Basically you can order food at the window which they will bring to your table and then a waitress for the bar portion of the business will come to take your order. It's kind of like a two-for-one deal where there are two businesses sharing the same space. Great he was very informative and we found a place to sit. The bar waitress walks over to us within about 5 minutes of sitting down and asks if we know what we'll have to drink. We hadn't seen the menu and hadn't come in with pre defined ideas of what we would drink so we were undecided. She tossed a few drink menus on the table and says 'figure it out' turns around and walks away. It wasn't a playful comment, she never smiled she never made eye contact she was plain rude. So we promptly got up, walked out, went next door and had a great time! She could have been having a rough day, but I didn't cause it and I sure as hell won't pay for it.

This bar has won me over. It's my new go-to spot. The staff is absolutely awesome. It is sooooo much better than the previous bar in this location, and it's 100% due to the great bar and management staff at this location.

Bad experience at this location. A few nights before seen dogs inside. A few days later took my pooch in to grab some takeout. Worker told me I had to take her outside without asking if she was an emotional support registered puppy. I did not question the dogs I saw nights before and quietly took my card for my food order and pup outside to wait in the heat. No water for pup in dog water bowls. To try and make up for it the same worker asked if I wanted a beer so I said yes thinking it was on the house but I was charged instead. HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE

Chips, salsa, queso, and guacamole. Good place for Sunday NFL football. Waiters are very attentive, overall good bar.

Great place to chill on a Saturday afternoon. Craft beers has a good selection. Super service.

I came here with a group of people to escape the extremely rude owner of the Broken Spoke next door. The girl at the bar was very sweet when we came in and came from around the bar to our table to wait on us. She was super cool, very friendly and made good strong drinks. I'm sad that we didn't eat here because the food looked amazing! If I make my way back to Austin, I would definitely come back to this place!

We were all really looking forward to spending our Friday 3/24 evening here to watch the Lady Longhorn Sweet 16 Basketball game. My friend, a bartender in the business for around 13-14 years went ahead so he could scout out a great seat with one big TV. He waited an hour for us to get there and in turn we waited an extra hour or so for the game to start. In the meantime we had a great server (I believe her name was Kate) kickass server and was only there for 2 days but knew her craft beer like a pro. I asked at least 3 different people if we'd be able to get the Longhorn game on the big TV we had been camped in front of for now going on almost 3 hours and every person said yes and as a matter of fact 2 of the guys came round and said they're getting that turned on for you her in a minute. Then we look up and what comes on?? The Baylor game that not only was on 7 other TVs but also they were losing and it was in the 2nd half. We looked in front of us and there was ONE guy that just sat down and he's the one the got what HE wanted on the TV we had been camped in front of waiting. When we asked Kate she said she didn't know why it wasn't on and would find out. So here comes a young lady over to tell us "she's relaying a message that the game would not be put on that TV" when we told her we had been there for hours and 3 people told us it was ours to watch she asked us who. We told her first Kate, her reply "she's new and only been here for 2 days" I said we also spoke to those 2 guys and pointed them out. Her reply "They don't count." By this time we're all furious so I asked for a manager her reply "I'm an assistant manager" Then my friend is like "then who are you getting this message from that you're relaying to us?" Her resolution was we can put it on these two TV's. One of them was behind two of us and on a corner and the other was all the way behind the bar and small. So she walked away and left us feeling like "whatever" and didn't care. Soon the manager comes by and tries to smooth things over, it didn't work, damage already done. I'm like "so one DUDE sits down and gets his way but our local team that we came to cheer on and have been sitting here for hours gets basically the backhanded whatever treatment." His demeanor was very cordial and much nicer than previous young woman but again damage done and lack of hospitality was overwhelming. He offered to buy us a drink and we're like we just want our check and to go somewhere we can watch the rest of the game, which we did and had a lovely time next door at Baker Street Pub where we sat down at outside bar and bartender didn't hesitate to put the game on for us. We certainly found out if you're a women's sports fan don't try and watch any sports here.

Fantastic place. Great TVs. Amazing beer selection, one of the best in town and I'm a beer snob. And their staff is fantastic and attentive. Go above and beyond.

This negative review only pertains to the Surf and Turf food they serve, because the bar wait staff was absolutely incredible! Which is a shame. Our order: BBQ wings- $15 Fried shrimp Po Boy- $19 In less than 5 mins from ordering our food, it was already at our table. You're thinking, "Wow, thats great and fast service!" but no, it was barely edible. I have no idea how they were able to prepare our food in that amount of time. My wings were so awful I only ate 3 of them. I am almost positive that the shrimp Po Boy had just been heated up. The shrimp was not fresh and had a very unpleasant taste and flavor. The price of the food served should be taken back into consideration with the quality of food you are providing. $34 for wings and a sandwich? Taking the quality, quantity, and taste into consideration I wouldn't have paid anything over $12 for what I ordered. Im honestly shocked we had this kind of experience after reading through all the previous positive reviews. I sincerely hope this feedback gets to the right person and some changes are made. I am a local customer living very close to the bar. Its a bummer that you guys are losing customers with this quality of food.

I can't think of anything negative about Lavaca Street to say here. I've been to all three locations and I'm impressed by the friendly, knowledgeable servers and the wide drink selection. They have many interesting and "regular" beer choices, a full liquor selection and some wines too. This place caters best to people looking to hang with a group and watch sports in a fun, loud environment. There are two basketball shootout arcade games that we always use and a ton of TVs playing various sports and some showing cool stunts and fails videos (YouTube style). There's a patio right along Lamar and parking couldn't be easier in the adjacent garage. Check out the Broken Spoke next door for some country dancing and then come to LSB for some late-night drinks.

Pretty happy with this place after my first visit. I used to come here all the time when it was World of Beer but the service was horrendous. I have to say that is not the case now that it is Lavaca St. The bartender was so friendly, called me by name, recommended good beer. We sat on the patio and the server was on top of keeping us happy and our beer glasses full. Only ordered sweet potato fries but they were delicious! They had some kind of Cajun seasoning on them and were spicy and I liked it. They have a ton of tvs and seems like it would be a great place for any sporting event. Come check it out for great drinks, service, and food.

Blackened crawfish nachos and spicy hot wings are both great. Lots of TVs, dog friendly patio, 25% off tacos on Tuesdays. Only downside is how crowded it gets on Saturdays.

Rob and the crew kill it all the time! Great to hear crowds cheering there teams outside on the beautiful weekends we get! Amazing food, and cold beer!

Worst ranch dressing of all time. Tastes and looks like tarter sauce. They should be ashamed to call that ranch in the great state of Texas. CHANGE IT ALREADY.

The Bartender has probably the worst personality of any bartender I've ever seen. Yeah you! Bearded guy with the glasses and the belly that gets offended when someone goes up to the bar to ask for water. You remind me of that kid at school that no one likes, and that no one thought was funny. You offer nothing to this otherwise desirable bar.

The ideal attribute of this bar is location. The Surf-N-Turf meals are far too large and the menu is okay. The mixed cocktails are a bit expensive (during football season, I recall them being less than the $10 they are now), and they nixed individual glasses of wine, so you have to buy the half bottle, which is kind of annoying. I am not sure why they got rid of that, other than to be able to charge more. The waitresses are typically pretty swift, but some days seem "off" and some days seem "on." Depends what kind of day you catch 'em on.
