What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"Biju the bartender wears his hair in a bun. Other than that, I love this place."
"They charged my card $30.30 $70.81 and $20 and I didnt close out my card when I left they basically stole money from me giving themselves a $20 tip. When you call the number on google it says its out of service. If you go here do not leave your card open and make sure to close out when you leave."
"It was really nice to come back to Bayview and find a dog friendly place to drink and hangout, it was a great atmosphere with awesome service. I will definitely go back next time I'm in town. Props to places like this for keeping the area thriving."
"If I could give 0 stars I would for the horrible female bartender that's skinny with the tattoos on her arm, she had gave me a attitude for nothing, what do you expect ma'am?!? I had a long day at work!!"
"I approached the bar to order a drink and the first thing I was told by bartender was " you can't sit there" instead of a warm welcome. I didn't get water or a lime or salt offered for my 2 top shelf shots I ordered. I was hoping to hang out for a bit but I just left instead"
"I was going for happy hour from 4-6 pm but realized the regular menu is way better and had to try the cafe jerk chicken large platter. It was a lot of food..."
