Sunday brunch, seen the brisket bloody marry on a review. That does not disappoint! They make their mix in house and is delicious. We also got the brisket grilled cheese. It was great. Very hot (temp) and so cheesy. The staff was SO friendly. They were not real busy and the staff hung out at the bar. They talked to the three of us. Including us in all the conversations. It was a great atmosphere. There also was a band playing.

Got the chicken sandwich and it didn’t have any flavor to it. Tots seemed overcooked. Servers were friendly and nice and they have a small playground for kids.

Absolutely loved this place!
Great place for the whole family! Took my family after the Witte Museum, which is right across the street.
Great play area for the kiddos!
Daily Specials and Happy Hour are fantastic!
Brisket Nachos and Crispy Dogs were delicious!
Must try!

Really wanted to check this place out for nachos, which sadly don’t get served until after 2 on Sundays. Great place to sit outside and drink. Has a kids playground. The frozen Moscow mules are so delicious! Will be back to try the food soon.

The best pro jam around every Tuesday night at 7 pm. Sometimes 30 + musicians sign up to perform. Located behind the Smoke Shack, same owners, different menu plus a large covered outdoor dining space.

Y’all let me put y’all on something here. Atmosphere is so chill and even though it’s hot outside, they have fans that are blowing literally on every table. They do have an indoor seating, but I always prefer being outside. The food was omg, chefs kiss. Sure it’s quick and easy finger foods but the flavor just was out of this world. I asked to speak to the chef and was greeted by a gentleman by the name of Anthony. He was the cook during that shift and was very humble. His passion for food was admirable. The bartender, I can’t remember his name but he was super attentive as well as the other bartenders. 5 out of 5 would totally recommend.

What a cool place to enjoy lunch out with friends! Enjoyed the old time ambience, we enjoyed our food and “I” loved that brisket margarita and those brisket nachos! Good service and reasonably priced.

I was there with my husband to have a drink. It’s a cozy local bar with delicious food and live music. You get the Texas vibe. Their sitting arrangement is little different. They had wooden benches, and i liked that. They also had outdoors, but it was a cold night, so we sat inside and enjoyed their live music. I had spicy margaritas..which is my all-time favorite. And they didn’t disappoint me. The people were friendly. I enjoyed the live music while eating the nachos and grilled cheese sandwich. The quantity was enough for two of us. The nachos were crispy and fresh with little avocado on top. Loved their food. The price was also reasonable. To get the Texan vibe, one must visit this bar.
Will definitely visit them again.

I’ll start with the good part. It’s a chill dive bar atmosphere.
The rest:
Service is terrible – They don’t want to take your orders. They forget what you ordered.
Food is bad – Brisket nachos have old brisket, stale chips, and heated up/packaged cheese. Asian chicken sandwich has soggy bread and watery coleslaw. The chicken was barely warm but not the worst.
If you just want to chill and get beer it’s a good place to anything else and you’ll be disappointed.

I was overcharged on a recent visit. After overlooking my bank statement, it seemed there was an added tip on top of the 20% I originally gave. I contacted the manager, who initially said she would look into it, but I never received a follow-up despite multiple emails and calls. This was especially concerning since my husband had previously been double charged on a separate visit, which we assumed was a one-time mistake.
Being ignored was extremely disappointing and unprofessional. I strongly recommend that customers carefully review their receipts and bank statements for any overcharges.
