The 11 best happy hour specials in Tallahassee

Stopped by Miller’s Ale House for lunch and had a really nice time with my son. The service was great—everyone was friendly and on point. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, perfect for a relaxed meal. The food was pretty good overall, but not quite amazing, which is the only reason I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5. Still, I’d definitely go back and give it another try!

Welp, Not a good experience while here visiting our child in college. Slow, seemingly unorganized, possibly short staffed 🤷🏽‍♂️ Just not good. Food was unflavored. Whole family was unimpressed. My pork shank was decent. Thats all. Not coming back ever 😒

I came in for a treat to myself. I sat at the bar. The mich ultra I ordered was ice cold!! The food was ok. The side salad is huge. Calamari, I ordered well done. It came out ok except the hard clumps. I'm sharing pics because a server was doing their hair at expo window and did not wash hands. The cooks were cussing and yelling. There's nothing like the f word with lunch. I will go back, but maybe not sit at the bar!

Shrimp boat!!! We both had the 35...wait what?!?!? 35 piece shrimp with a side. So much shrimp and even better yet tasty good! Huge selection of beers great bar super nice bartender Nice menu delicious fries. I believe there's multiple of these in town and I would recommend it especially if you're staying in the hotel and of course locals already know about it. Did I mention the 35 shrimp were under $16 are you kidding me!

If you’re ordering to go, please don’t do the mistake I did and not check your food before you leave. I ordered pasta with chicken and broccoli and it’s missing broccoli. I also got a burger and it comes with a side of fries and surprise, no fries! Also waited 20 minutes inside to pick up my food after they had texted me it was ready and the guy working took 2 people behind me first before getting to me.

Had 15 folks for my mom’s 75th birthday pre-set up. It was nice the server on duty manager. Everybody was just super awesome. I’m sure it has a lot to do with being in real estate where I grew up from but couldn’t have asked for a better time they were very accommodating and we all tipped out hard.

Wild Bill is the best bartender. Fast, friendly, attentive. Our food was perfect and he did it all from memory. Drinks strong and quick. Miller's Ale House has always been a staple where I grew up and Tallahassee location needs the support. They deserve it.

We got wings and onion rings. Wings were delicious and came out quickly. They aren’t served with anything, not even celery or carrots. Onion rings cost $8 and I think we only got 8. Probably wouldn’t order those again, but overall we enjoyed the restaurant and will return.

I went there as a take out order while working in the area after the storm. It was quite of few people who was also ordering to go. It was a lady we'll call Ms A, unsure of how to spell her name, but she offered to get me a beverage while I waited on my food and she kept on her staff about if my order was ready. I would definitely visit and recommend this establishment. Great food at a good price.

I’ve been eating here for years. But over the past few months, the quality of the food and the service has really gone down. There have been multiple times in which my order was wrong or it wasn’t cooked properly. It’s never been a problem for them to fry my wings extra crispy (until now). There have been many times where I did not send food back or return it even when the flavors were wrong or the wings were not fried extra crispy. But after yesterday’s experience, I have to say something. I ordered 30 wings last night and requested for them to be fried extra crispy. This cost $60. Pretty expensive for only 30 wings wouldn’t you agree? Once my food was out, I checked my wings at the counter and yet again, they were the wrong flavors and the chicken was not fried hard at all and looked more flabby than usual. If I’m paying $60, the least they could do is get the flavors right. And I also don’t think it’s too much to ask to let the wings fry a little longer so that they’re crispy. These mishaps are happening way too often. This place used to have the best wings in town but now they’re average at best on a good day.

Very friendly and courteous staff. Fun lively atmosphere. Our server (Joe) was very patient with our ADHD daughter. Prime Rib Au Juice sandwich was excellent. Good selection of beer and cocktails. My wife was quite fond of the April Showers drink of the month. My daughter really enjoyed the chicken fingers. Cheese curds appetizer was also very good.

Really disappointed with Hobbit. Service was really terrible yesterday evening. We ended up being there for 2 and a half hours at least. The table waited for drinks for at least 45 minutes and our food came out before we got our drinks. The chicken Mac and cheese was super liquidy and I also had their special of the day, Philly cheese stake. It wasn't very good either. I hope they can improve. Maybe it was just an off day for them but still just overall disappointed with the experience.

Been here a few times with my husband, and we’ve always had an amazing experience. I had the gyro tonight, and it was fantastic. We love Hobbit!

Thursdays~ wings are still cheaper I think, 90 percent per wing. Wings were good. (Lemon pepper and garnet and gold) pic not really clear... The fried pickles and fried jalapeños were delicious. The restaurant was very crowded but it didn't take long to place our order and we didn't have to wait long for our food.

Nice local place to eat out, very family oriented. I enjoyed the seating outdoors on their porch. The tacos were very tasty with a sweet spicy sauce that was not overwhelming at all. Our server was super sweet with us and made us feel welcome. There was plenty of parking.

I recently visited Bumpa's at 2738 Capital Cir NE, in Tallahassee, FL. I had a very good experience at Bumpas..I sat at the bar and was greeted for my drink order. It was my first time and the bartender dude gave me some great advice on getting the churrasco tacos which were the daily special. The smoked Gouda Mac was awesome. Go check this place out!

We were off to Bumpa's again and just like the first time we had a blast. Family, good friends and good food. And good service I might add. We had another awesome waitress. Wish I had gotten her name. But another great meal, and they even had a sandwich for me. Vegan lovers, try 'The Shroom'. I really enjoyed it and I think you will too. OLD POST: I ordered the bbq ribs. After sitting there for nearly 30 minutes, the waiter comes out to say there are no more ribs for the lunch shift, they are now preparing for the dinner shift only. But the waiter did recommend another dish, and I don't think it measured up to what I had ordered. I can say the Bumpas Rolls are delicious.

We had a great time sitting at the bar for dinner, drinks, and the game. The bartender was super friendly and provided great service. The sliders, onion rings, and lavash was perfect bar food. We would order those all again. The rest of the staff was just as friendly. Thanks for the evening as we were passing through town.

Shout out to Gracie, our server yesterday! I've had lunch there 3 or 4 times in the last few months. My group of lady friends has had the pleasure of having Gracie as our server. She is nice and does a great job. I have dietary issues and so I always order the chicken pesto sandwich modified to work for me. She take great care to understand what I need and it is always perfect! I like a lot of ice and so she kindly brings me extra. She's an excellent server!

Great buffalo wings. It was five of us and we ordered a variety of dishes and all were well prepared and presented. No complaints about the food, but it did take a while. I guess because we went there late, we had 3 different servers. But the last one took ownership, explained that the kitchen was running a bit behind and apologized for the delay and followed up with us constantly filling up our drinks. Unfortunately I forgot her name.

8/31/25. Got a table at 12:30. Placard a drink order and food order shortly after being seated. Got our drinks but no food. Waited for too long till 2. One order was brought out cold and the other was still being prepped. Absolutely disappointing as my family eats here regularly. Ended up paying for my drinks and leaving. Second time in the last month this has occurred.

I went on a Friday evening and was greeted immediately by the hostess Linda, who was friendly amazing. She made sure I was comfortable and familiar with everything they have to offer. I shared with her that I was new to Tallahassee in a short conversation. The manager John came out to welcome me and brought appetizer samples for me to try which were amazing! My waiter Daniel,who was also the bartender made sure he checked my table and made sure I was good! Great first experience and will definitely be back and no i am not a paid actor. Lol

We go for Friday fishfry every week, tonight it took a while for the food to come out and when it did the manager came right behind our food and said I have another order of onion straws coming because those looked to dark, sure enough a few minutes later he brought out a fresh not burnt order. Thank you Jonathan and our server Kate.

Nice outdoor seating. I ordered the Black and Blue salad. It was very small, only a tablespoon of tomatoes on the lettuce. Added the Grilled filet which was supposed to be medium and came well done and hardly more than a tablespoon or 2 of chopped bits. Ordered the warm rolls which the server delivered to another table. Then after several minutes the waitress came out and noticed they weren't for that table, so picked them up and tried to redeliver them to me!!! I refused them and said I really insisted on a fresh basket. Then a few minutes later came back with 2 more. The rolls-ridicuolusly expensive and what a side show. Life is too short to eat here again. Management???

I went there and had a great time! The bartender Carley was super cool and the drinks were A1!! This sampler plate was also really good! I recommend it!

Extremely friendly for first timers. They brought out a sampler appetizer plate (My fav was the smoked wings) and a brownie (chewy deliciousness) afterward as a thank you for coming in. The food was quality and fresh. Husband loved the meatloaf!

We had lunch here the other day. Good atmosphere and friendly staff. I had the Hero burger. It was really good. My wife had a cheese burger which she thought was just ok. We both had fries. They were crispy and hot. We had to wait a bit to be seated, not because they were busy but because there was no one around to seat us. Once we able the get seated, the server was good. Overall a good experience.

My friend and I visited this evening. The white waitress walked passed us three times and didn’t look our way. A table behind us full of white people were seated and came in after us, and she went straight to their table without acknowledging us. Chase swiftly came in and took our order with no problem. This is a persistent problem here as this is not my first time here. The ambiance and the food are always good here but the service needs an upgrade definitely. Service should be the best experience but this is where the Brass Tap falls short everytime. Please train staff to acknowledge and service ALL customers.

I was pretty disappointed in this place. The bartender did not know how to make a soda bitters, so the server had to come ask my friend who ordered one to explain in detail. The drinks took a very long time to come out as well, I think around half an hour for the margarita flight. I ordered a pretzel which was perfectly fine, but nothing special and certainly not worth $9 in my opinion. The only real pluses were that they gave us a pitcher of water for the table and that there is ample parking.

The place is beautiful, but the service was truly disappointing. My partner and I waited far too long while over seven employees were just standing around talking and laughing with each other. Sadly, no one bothered to help us, so we eventually gave up and left for another place.

We loved our food! Our server, Gabby, was wonderful!! Instantly one of our favorite spots! The Brussels as a side dish were delish and only $4! You must come here for food, beer & fun!

Great sports bar. It wasn't all that busy but I can see what this place was built for. So many taps. Will become a favorite sport when traveling to Tallahassee. I got the jalapeno burger but with grilled chicken. It was excellent!

Visited The Brass Tap in Tallahassee's Midtown yesterday, parking was easy (at the time) and off street in the lot. We were hoping to catch some sun on the patio, but our timing was off. If you'd like to sun with a cold brew definitely go before 4pm, on the weekend, in the winter months. That said, the patio was spacious, clean and comfortable. There were a few dogs enjoying the fresh air too, so they're dog-friendly! There was ample seating both inside and out, we did end up inside at the bar for a couple draughts and share-ables. The nachos were a huge portion, well made with salsa and sour cream on the side. The chicken quesadilla was very cheesy and well portioned too. We will certainly be back to try more food and great local beer!

Unfortunately my expectations were not met. We arrived at 7:45 and did not receive our food until 9:30. Drink service was good but our food didn’t come out until I reminded our server twice. Food is lukewarm.

Great location wings were delicious! Customer service was very nice and attentive. Plenty of inside and outside seating. Televisions everywhere would be a great place to watch sports! Here on business no long wait at all on a weekday evening and prices are reasonable.

I've eaten here maybe twice before a few years ago, but I feel like they got better (aside from the price increase, of course). Food-wise: Let me just say the portion size of fries that I received for $5.49 was ridiculous. The food is delicious though. Everything came hot and cooked perfectly in my opinion-- well, except for the wings which weren't my favorite. My favorites were the cheeseburger sliders and the spinach artichoke dip. Both were so flavorful and hot when it reached the table. The cheese pull on the spinach dip was glorious. My hard raspberry lemonade hit the spot too! The wings just started to taste and look a little /too/ GMO. It wasn't too busy when we arrived around 5:00 and were immediately sat in a spacious booth (we definitely needed it). Tim, our server, was pretty nice and made sure we were good at all points. We didn't spend more than an hour and 30 minutes between arrival and departure so service was nicely paced in my opinion. We left happy with some delicious leftovers and plans to come back again to try something else on the menu. I recommend. -P.S. I really appreciate the change in uniform for the women, the old design made the atmosphere feel more... Hooters-esque. It may be slight, but I noticed the difference.

Food was good, we had Voodoo Shrimp and Grits, Boudin balls, Chicken Avocado Club and a Chicken Berry Pecan salad. All was good and we left full and satisfied.

Myself & my partner had a great first time eating here. We had the PEPPER JACK BOUDIN for the appetizer they are delicious you get 6 of them & dipping sauce. I got the BLACKENED CHICKEN ALFREDO it was yummy but I would personally add more seasoning or flavor to the pasta. I would get it again. My partner got the CAJUNDILLAS they were delicious I will probably get those when we go back. We also go the DOUGHNUT BREAD PUDDING which was delicious as well. Overall I would highly recommend this restaurant if you’re in the area. Our server was also attentive & friendly.

The food was solid, but a bit overpriced. The portion sizes were meager in relation to what they charge. Since it’s a sports bar, the assumption is people will drink a bunch of alcohol and eat less food. There’s a good variety of entrees for pescatarians like myself. I liked the crawfish pasta with shrimp. The redfish tacos were succulent and well-made. The service was excellent all-around and everyone was friendly. This wouldn’t be an ideal place if you’re looking to get full on food alone, but it’s an amazing atmosphere during football and basketball season.

Mary took great care of us!! As someone who works in the service industry, I can be a tough critic when dining out. But Mary absolutely exceeded every expectation. She was attentive without hovering, intuitive without assumption, and genuinely funny without ever crossing the line into overfamiliarity. As for the food, I had a double bacon burger, my boyfriend had the buffalo chicken wrap, and my friends had the black jack chicken and hickory burger, it was all delicious. One of the best burgers I’ve had in awhile! I sincerely hope management knows what a gem they have with Mary, and keep serving up great food!

Went to Walk-On’s for the FSU vs Bama game (it was busy as hell), but Tristin and Mary were phenomenal! Super attentive, amazing service, and kept everything flowing smoothly. Food and drinks came out quick and were great even with the crowd. Couldn’t have asked for better!

Sat outside for FSU first game. Waitress was awesome...think her name was Dee (nursing student); she was great (writing review weeks later and forgot sorry girl). Gathered with friends to celebrate the life of a friend who passed on. #LLFPat

Figure we would try this place, atmosphere is so so dark and gloomy with a run down look. Place wasn't even half full of people, most was the staff and service was slow and disappointing, by the time I got a refill we were done eating. The meat quality for the steak sandwich was not good about 60% meat and 40% fat. Would not recommend

Amazing experience! Was sat quickly, and my server Emily was awesome! Super personable, answered all my questions about the menu, and really made me laugh and feel welcomed. Will be coming back soon!

First time there today, service at the bar was spot on, food was awesome and a great atmosphere. What more do you want from a bar? Well great prices! Hell they have that too! Good job guys I'll definitely be back. Thank you

Great place to chill with your co-workers, friends and family! Great food, tasty drinks, music machine, pool tables, big screen tvs with several games and darts! Our rating scale 1-10: Bar/Drinks 10 Appetizer 9 Entreé 9 Desserts 7 Restroom 8 Customer Service 10 Come here for the tables and environment! This is by far one of the best bars in town you're going to visit.

Very relaxed place. It reminds me of a small town bars where the staff is polite and the drinks are cheap enough to get a light buzz. They have darts and pool tables and the people are not that loud so you can actually have a conversation with your buddies or your date.

Great place to grab a bite to eat & a drink. They have live music on the weekends, pool tables & dart boards. Great little spot.

My husband and I went for a dinner date and this place by far exceeded my expectations. My whole experience from the food to the service to even the video games was redefined in the absolute best way. I cannot recommend this place enough.

We had a great time, it is our first visit since we were looking for houses in the neighborhood and we decided this place caught our attention, all the staff were friendly and they explained to us the promotions of the meals and the games. My burger was delicious and so were my daughter's chicken fingers. We had fun playing the games for a while and definitely had a good time. We are definitely going back.

Great place for kids and adults. Food was top notch!

On 10/24/25 I wanted to recharge my game card at 1124 the manager specifically said they were closing soon and would not accommodate As it was more than 30 minutes before midnight I found this both surprising and disappointing The man walking around cleaning was very kind to me though. He is tbe only reason I gave more than one star. He is the carrying all the stars.

First time here and my husband and I loved it! New date night spot for sure! We ordered burgers, and they were delicious ( extra points for getting the point of the meat right! Is not everyday that you get an actual medium rare when you ask for one!). Our server Kaydence was extremely kind and attentive. She knew the menu very well and was able to help us first timers decide what to order. She kept us updated on the status of the order and how long it would take, and made us feel extremely welcomed! Management when you read this, give this girl a raise! Will definitely be coming back for more good food and games!

Got the one hour bowl and 20$ game card. You don't get to play all the games with the card just certain ones and the one hour card doesn't allow you to redeem your prize. My family and I were highly disappointed with this establishment.

Went for our church outing.. Games worked properly, and the food was delicious. The only thing that I didn't like was we had a large group and most of us had a play card with an hour playtime. No matter how many games you played and won tickets...you aren't allowed to redeem them for a prize and that doesn't seem far at all. Large/Nice meeting room for groups and the bowling area is very nice.

Came here with a few coworkers on my birthday. It was such a great day as I wish I would with a few gift cards and then we head off to Zingales do some billiards. It was tournament night so I was able to see some really good games. We had a really good time as the server was great. We had really good drinks and wings and the seem to be a great spot to hang out so we will definitely be returning on a normal day.

The first time I walked into Zingales Billiards & Sports Bar, I expected a good night out. What I didn’t expect was to find a place that would feel like a second home. Over the years, it’s become the spot where I can relax, see familiar faces, and know I’ll be treated like family. From the start, the staff made an impression. Before long, they knew my name, knew my drink, and had it ready before I even found my seat. The food quickly became part of the ritual always on point, always consistent. But more than anything, it’s the people that make Zingales what it is. Taylor, Destiny, Rae, Trinity, Prince, Tiffany, Frank, Kristen, Michael, Tiffanie, Ashley, Britney, Misty, Kay, and Marcel each of them has added something special to the experience. They don’t just serve; they connect, they care, and they make every visit personal. They set a standard that still shows in the culture today. That’s why I keep going back. Zingales isn’t just a place to grab food or play pool it’s where service feels genuine, where community comes alive, and where you leave already looking forward to the next visit.

I’ve been patronizing Zingales Billiards & Sports Bar for many years & have gotten to know many of their servers, bartenders, and even the owners. I am always greeted by name, my drink is usually made before I take my seat, and the food is exceptional. Taylor, Destiny, Rae, Trinity, Prince, Tiffany, Kevin, Frank, Kristen, and Michael are ALL amazing - and there are many others that have gone to do other things that were some of the best in the industry while serving at Zingales. I could not have chosen a better place to call “Cheers” where the conversations are endless & I feel welcomed. My experience may be different from yours now, but if you stay engaged, come often, show respect and show your sincerest appreciation for the service you are provided (& tipping 😉), you will agree that this place & the people that serve you are truly a gem.

Nice place! Lots of pool tables! Variety of food and drinks! They do serve at the table. Not very crowded but people start popping in around 9pm (which is when this review was written on a Friday) Definitely a place to hang out in groups or even with a loved one! You can also watch games here!

We had a great time tonight! Michelle was our server, and she was very attentive. She has a nice cheery personality. We had the Boom Boom Shrimp and Fried pickles. They both had great flavors! There was no wait for a table. The pool tables are nice and clean. The one downside was that I saw someone vaping at a pool table nearby. I didn't think that was allowed inside, with the clean air law. I have breathing issues, and the smoke makes it worse. I enjoy playing pool here. I hope to be able to come back.

I had a very disappointing experience here. The server with dark hair and tattoos claimed to be the manager, but demonstrated very poor professionalism. She appeared overwhelmed in a fast-paced environment and was extremely rude, even screaming at customers and causing a scene. This behavior is unacceptable in any setting, especially in food & bar service. What’s more concerning is that she has a reputation for having issues with people of color, which aligns with the way my party and I were treated. Our money is just as valuable as anyone else’s, and we should be treated with the same respect. Unfortunately, this experience has made it clear that I cannot recommend this establishment.

Fantastic food, some very nice bourbon, and a wonderful atmosphere. Also very worth noting the bathroom was incredibly clean. I didn’t catch our server’s name, but she was excellent as well.

This is such a disappointing restaurant. We knew something was off when walking into an establishment on a Saturday night DURING the NBA Playoffs and see not only a small crowd, but several unclean tables sprinkled throughout the space. We had to ask the hostess to clean our table otherwise we were directed to take a seat at one of the “open tables” neighboring the active trash. We should’ve walked out then, but had been traveling from out of town and were desperately hungry and ready to sit down to watch the game. It’s evident that the staff working that night were very casual in their approach to cleanliness. It simply looked unkempt from the windows to the walls. They were also noticeably understaffed which created prolonged delays receiving our order of which the waiter repeatedly apologized for. Once our food arrived, the look of disappointment really set in. Ever experienced an episode of what you ordered versus what you got? Welp, we ordered a Cobb salad and wanted to substitute the shaved chicken for hand breaded chicken. The waiter did his best to accommodate but my goodness it just wasn’t enjoyable. The tater tots were sadly room temperature and dry but the picture below depicts the tots on arrival. *sad face* It’s very apparent that restaurant chains are having a hard time staying consistent with quality and price. We felt so shorted. But on a high note, the wings were pretty good but we recommend only trying the spicy garlic, teriyaki, or Asian zing. So overall this is not just a poor review of an establishment, it’s also an introspective look at our poor choices made along the way. We should’ve just left.

Went here for a birthday dinner. Wasn't a busy night and took forever to get any service. Food came quick. After I was done with my dinner I find a squished fly under my food. Very disgusted after the fact. Manager didn't care to much and came up with excuses on how it could've gotten there. Definitely disgusted and won't be returning anytime soon.

I ordered 10 wings with Sweet BBQ sauce. When my food arrived I got plain wings that were cold. No sauce anywhere to be found. Called and complained and they hung up on me. Do NOT give them your business.

If this is what you all call spicy chicken tenders you should be ashamed of yourselves. They are extremely small and rock hard. Charging $11 for this is insane

It’s sad that you cannot order online & dine in smh the best offers are online! Also, while the dine in lunch special is reasonable (6 bone in wings/fries/drink $ or $13 for 10) they aren’t always as fresh & crispy. The waitstaff aren’t as pleasant (they weren’t to me anyways). I’d they aren’t your server they will certainly ignore you. My own wasn’t as pleasant until realizing I do tip!!! Smh

This place was horrible! The place was dirty, service slow, and food not good! I was in a party of six. We all ordered at the same time. However, it took forever and all.our meals came out at different times. Then the manager came out and informed me and a friend they had ran out steak for a Phillysteak. I had to wait an additional 20 minutes for my replacement that made me sick later on that night!

Came for the boneless wings, but we will be back for the service! We enjoyed the bbq and Buffalo boneless wings. The sauces were fantastic! The fries were extremely disappointing, but the wedges were good and would have been better if they were warmer. By the time I got the takeout home, it wasn't as warm as they could have been. Pay attention to your receipt with the online ordering. I noticed a $6 dollar difference than what it should have been. BUT! The manager immediately fixed it and offered an even better solution. She went above and beyond, and I am very grateful for that. Inside, the restaurant had a lot of seating and many TVs tuned to the game that was currently on. There are plenty of places to park and sit. Also there is a .99 cent take out fee. Overall, we will be back, but we probably won't order the fries.

We went there and was disappointed that they only had a "limited menu". We had looked at full menu online and was hoping to enjoy items that were listed. We walked in and was seated quickly but the waitress and wait staff seemed preoccupied. We sat for probably 25-30 minutes before we were asked what we wanted to drink. This would have been understandable if they had been busy, but there was only 2 other tables with patrons. It was essentially empty. We ordered 2 burgers from the limited menu. The waffle fries tasted stale. The burger was dry. I do not recommend this place and we won't be back to eat here. We would come and listen to music but will not order food again.

Good service, piss poor chef. 1/2 raw rice pilaf, 85% raw broccoli, overdone chicken. The lemon sauce wasn't terrible. Hard pass next time.

I visited Bowdens the last Friday of the summer semester. I was able to find paid street parking not far from the entrance. i was seated immediately. I love the indoor outdoor vibe of the place. I’m not sure what the crowds look like here on game days. I can see coming back and lounging with drinks. I expected typical sports bar food but the food was a little more elevated. The rice and chicken dish I ordered was actually seasoned well and the pretzel dough was such a soft delicious texture. Not dry or tough at all. It’s probably THE best pretzel I’ve tasted.

Visited Bowden’s for the first time a few weeks ago and enjoyed our experience. Service was friendly and helpful. We tried the pretzels and they were delicious. We also tried the burgers (I’m sorry can’t remember which ones we ordered) but they were flavorful. The restaurant was clean and I’m sure during football season this place stays packed.

The food was okay, Nachos i was not a fan of at all. Sandwich was decent. Service wasn't bad but wad thin for some reason not much staff. When we were helped she was sweet and attentive. Id definitely come back and have another meal.

I got the Mahi Fish Taco Platter, it came with 2 tacos and waffle fries for $15. My boyfriend got the Pulled Pork - he was not a fan of his, granted it came chopped, wasn’t on a bun, came with tasteless slaw and waffle fries. The pork was good though! Just tiny portions :( Shrinkflation I guess. My tacos were good, could’ve used more seasoning and I wished it came with 3 tacos instead of two and less fries for $15. It was just okay for lunch but this restaurant is better when you plan on drinking and just want a quick bite or watch a sports game.

I wish I could give a proper review on this place, but each time my friend and I have attempted to try this place we never even speak to a server. The first time was a regular busy Saturday afternoon and the place was packed to the brim. We waited 20 minutes to put our name on the list (yes we waited 20 minutes in a line going out the door) and was told the wait would be 20-30 minutes which was fine with us because we really wanted to try the place. After about 15 minutes we get a text that our table was ready... along with about 5 other different parties of people, which led to a pile up at the "host stand" (really just a random table close to the door). The poor host was seemingly the only one scheduled that day to host AND buss tables as she was doing it all and running back and forth so we decided to go someplace else and try it on a day after the semester ended. We tried again yesterday and were sat outside immediately by the polite hostess (the only thing good about this place from what I've experienced) as it was fairly empty. We were the only people seated outside vs our first attempt with the patio being completely full. We waited THIRTEEN minutes and was still not greeted by a server. At that point I was really really upset because I have served for almost 5 years and never took that long to greet a table. We assumed our business wasn't wanted and went across the street to Coosh's where we had much better service and a delicious lunch. Our suspicions were confirmed when we looked across the street a minute after leaving our table to see the menus and waters they give at the door had been swiftly snatched up and cleared. Perhaps we weren't the right color to receive proper service or who knows what exactly their issue is, but I will not be giving them another try!
