We have been looking for good chicken wings in the downtown area. The wings were very crispy and the sauce was flavorful, however, the prices were VERY expensive. The wings came out to over $2/wing (23.50 for 10). We shared them and a sandwich. The Diesel sandwich was pretty good, sort of dry. The beers were good on tap. They had the hockey game on which was fun! Overall the rating is low for the price. Our bill was about $70 for 10 wings, a sandwich,and 2 beers. I had interest in chicken tenders, but 6 tenders are $24. That's insane. At the price point there are other restaurants for same quality at lower cost.

10/2020 The Dining Room is closed but they have tables outside. I ordered the Western Burger. It's described as Tillamook Cheddar, Onion Rings, Apple wood Bacon, Smoked Hickory (Sauce), Lettuce Tomato, Brioche Bun. I got the dollar upgrade to sweet potato fries. The brioche bun was nice, however the burger patty was a mass produced frozen patty. Instead of Onion Rings there was just one. All in all, not bad value for this area. The staff was helpful and friendly, but this is downtown San Jose so I got hit up for money by a guy who just set up shop on the next table (free rent).

Came in looking for a gourmet burger because of the price. Burger was to greasy to soggy because of the lettuce after taking 1 bite and asking if I could get some sauce it would 25 cents at this point i wanted to taste something different for the burger had no flavor. Took another asked if I could get half of my money back or another burger or something clerk said that’s what it is.

Pros: -Open late -You order at the counter: no splitting the bill/Vemoing each other -Good food and drink: try the Cubano and hot buttered rum -Nice outdoor seating area with heaters My con: -Has tvs inside and outside (a pro for some)

I'd have rated this place higher, cept Google's menu listed them as having both shakes & rootbeer floats, they had neither, & by the X I got to destination (about 4 blocks away) the 🍟's were already cold, and whist the burger was better than what joes has, it may take second place to rookie's burger & around the same price

So this is the memorabilia at the bar here. I came to this bar in San Jose to watch a 49ers game. The team playing 15 minutes up the road. They don't even have the game playing for everyone to hear. This place is a joke they don't care about locals at all.

The food is good, but one of our wing came out still raw.

Decent wings. Can be a bit hit and miss quality wise.. But otherwise friendly service.
