  The burgers here were phenomenal! Love being right next to the water and sammie, the bartender, has awesome energy. If we were from the area, we would definitely come back!

  I've been coming to this bar for years, and I can honestly say that the best part about it is the bartender. He is not only hilarious but also one of the hardest workers I've ever seen. He can handle the busiest nights with a smile, and he is always making sure everyone is having a good time. I've seen him juggle multiple orders, crack jokes, and still remember everyone's name and usual drink. Not only is he super fun to be around, but he has crazy story’s of his times living over seas in South Asia for 3 months… AWESOME!!! If you're looking for a great bar experience, look no further. Just make sure this bartender is working, and you're guaranteed to have a fantastic night. Prepare to be late to your bedtime too! Time flys past whenever I am in there and he is working. Five stars all the way!"

  First time here. Came for lunch with a friend. It's on the lake and has a nice view of the water. A very large patio with plenty of seating under umbrellas. Inside is a large bar with tables for different sized groups. Got here a little bit before noon. Got seated right away. Ordered a couple of cold beverages while checking out the menu. It took a while for our server to get back to us, which was not a problem for us (couple of retired guys), but would have been if I were in a hurry. I ordered the Bourbon Bacon Burger with Sweet Potato Fries. My friend got the Chicken Wings, dry rub with Smokehouse BBQ. It didn't take too long for the food to arrive. However, the Chicken Wings weren’t dry rubbed; they had a sauce, which turned out to be the Habanero. My hamburger was excellent, medium-rare. Tthere were plenty of caramelized onions, and I loved the texture and taste of the haystack onions on top. However, the fries were lukewarm. It took another while for our server to get back to us to check on things. Mentioned the wings to the server. She took them back to the kitchen and had the correct wings made. By the time they came back out, I was done with my meal, and he was just getting started. Never got asked about a refill on beverages, so I had to ask for some more iced tea. The burger was good, the view is great. But the service, both at the table and in the kitchen, was disappointing. Not an experience that would have me enthusiastic about going back.

  Horrible service! Waitress should learn how to be in the customer service industry. Told us 45 min wait for food, 1-1/2 for burgers, wraps, and a kids corn dog. Spoke to manager, his response "have you ever been here on a Saturday." Ha great managerial skills. Will never be back.

  Bartenders and view were awesome. It was crazy busy for a Monday and the Bartenders were holding their own. But the cook was having a meltdown in the back swearing loud enough for customers to hear and it showed in his food. Under seasoned wings for "award winning" Mahi had no flavor and was well overcooked had to drown it in lemon. Definitely will come back for drinks awesome bar/atmosphere.
