I stopped in for some food and I ordered suya and the girl came back 15 minutes later to tell me there was no suya and then I ordered lemon pepper wings and fries and they tasted like old bay wings fried in dirty grease and lemon pepper sprinkled on top.. the fries was soft and tasted like dirty grease.. I won’t order food from them again but the atmosphere from what I seen while I was waiting looked lit. Maybe they don’t put their best foot forward on the food tip when they think everyone there is drunk.

I had such a great experience thanks to Ryan! From the moment we arrived, she brought amazing energy and professionalism to the table. She was super attentive, made sure our drinks were always topped up, and kept the vibe fun all night. Ryan has that perfect mix of friendly and efficient, she made everyone in our group feel special and taken care of. You can tell she really loves what she does. Definitely one of the best bottle girls I’ve had. Ask for Ryan if you want top-tier service and good vibes all night!

First off, the lounge is a nice atmosphere. But my last visit was far from a great experience. I’ll keep it short. Myself and a few friends were there on the 25th, a Tuesday. We started out with drinks and everything was good. When we asked about food we were told that at the moment they only had the Suya beef because the chef had to run out. It wasn’t clear if he ran out for food or if he ran out and there was no one there to cook the food. After being told he would be back soon we continued to enjoy ourselves and have a few more drinks. After awhile of asking about food and still being told there was nothing to eat we asked if we could bring in food, because we were enjoying ourselves there. We were told no, but still no idea when we would be able to order food. That was the last straw, we settled up and left to go somewhere else. No real apologies were given, and there were no sign that they even cared that the entire situation happen.
I’ve been to Famous a few times before this, but this might effect me going back again.

Every time I visit Famous Lounge the food is amazing, Most importantly Jaiven makes the experience unforgettable. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and friendly energy truly set the bar high—literally! She knows her craft inside and out, mixing drinks perfectly while keeping the atmosphere lively and welcoming. Whether it’s a busy night or a quiet evening, Jaiven always delivers top-tier service with a genuine smile.
If you’re at Famous Lounge, do yourself a favor and grab a drink from Jaiven—you won’t be disappointed. She’s easily one of the best bartenders in the area!

Ryan served our food quick and it was all delicious and she got everything right and we had a bunch of orders deff recommend asking for her when you pull up.

Okay so I dont really give reviews that are like one. But I desire to see the business come back to its glory. The potential is there.
However, based off previous reviews we did a late night on a holiday weekend. The drinks were enjoyable until water from the HVAC leaked into them. We moved and it happened again. The furniture has seen its days. It’s really time for some well needed renovations and this place would be a place to enjoy.
The food was AMAZING!!
UPDATE: The owner pulled through and laid down some impeccable updates. The white floors and new seats are superb. The food of course is still TOP TIER!! I definitely recommend

I come here all the time since it’s close to home, and the vibe never disappoints! The music, atmosphere, food, and crowd are always on point. G is hands down one of the best servers here super sweet, attentive, and always makes sure everyone’s having a great time. She brings great energy and really adds to the whole experience. If you go, definitely ask for G, she’ll take great care of you!

This is one of my favorite places to go to happy hour with friends. The food is so good and we always like ordering hookah. Drinks are on point and the music is always jumping when DJ Lex is spinning I love dancing. The Waitresses and Staff always encourage us to have a great time. They have undoubtedly changed the game with the recent stylish remodel and new bottle selections.

I’ve been to famous a lot of times actually and solely because of my bartender Jaiven, who is amazing and out the customers first. She treats everyone with respect and make sure everything is on time where you don’t have to ask for anything. The music is good and I always have a good time.
