We showed up around 1:00pm. The place was ghost town. We finally got to see our waitress (Christina) ...we ordered 5 wings as an appetizer. Then about 10 minutes later she came back to get our order. We waited and waited for the appetizer. It finally came out 2 minutes before our food that we ordered 10 minutes after our appetizer. So we ate our appetizer with our food. The waitress dropped our food off and disappeared. We never seen her again and the place was empty. I had one sweet tea and that was it. I didnt have the option for a refill. She finally came back to the table after we were done and sitting there waiting for a check. She dropped the check off and disappeared again. We waited over 15 minutes just for her to come back and take it. My wife ordered the salmon ceaser, and the fish was almost raw. But we had no waitress to tell that to. My philly cheese steak was good but the bread was so hard that I could knock out someone with it. I know its a sports grill but my bread should not be as hard as a bat. The coleslaw was some of the best that I have tasted though. We had high expectations for this place and were so let down. They should really train the staff to be attentive to their guest since there were only about 8 people in the whole building. My wife runs a restaraunt in Clearwater so we know how service should be. We wont be going back.

One of the worst experiences Ive ever had even for Tampa... The place is a dust box. The burnt chicken that me and my 7 year old daughter ordered tasted like straight mold on a plate. the dust from the ceiling was falling on to our table... The bathrooms werent even clean enough for an animal to use.. It took over 15 minutes for them to even ecknowledge our existence.. The waitress seemed as if she was on drugs and had the memory of fish. I wouldnt even let my dog eat that food we still feel like vomiting and will probally be sick...theres carpet missing under the tables and every one that was near us was complaining about the place as well . If it was up to me and some others that place would be shut down .... gross!! The people with good reviews under me must have been paid or work there I would never recommend bringing any child there.!!!

If there was a no star option I would have chose that. This was my first time ever in this place. We were seated at the back of the restaurant, yet the hostess was our server. We saw her less than anyone in the building. Our appetizer came out 2 mins before our food. Drinks were never refilled. My daughter didnt like her meal, after waiting 10 mins to inform her, she disappeared again for at least 10 mins. When she finally returned I asked for the manager. He came out about 5 mins later and was just as incompetent as our server was. He just stood there and was like "sorry", no customer service skills whatsoever. As someone who has been in this industry, this is by far a "what not to do" example. I will never return, which is sad because its right down the street from me.

Bottom line, if youre looking for the ABSOLUTE BEST WINGS IN TAMPA. Right here. Winners has them. The food here is fantastic. I have never had something on the menu that wasnt fantastic. And the overall vibe of the place is chill, friendly and quick. I can usually be found at the bar because whoever is working that night theyre friendly and always keep your glass filled. The only thing that takes away from Winners is the building that its in; the place needs a new roof BADLY. (Lol I almost want to start a Gofundme to help). I cant recommend Winners more. If you live in the area, check it out. The people who work here have an obvious passion for their business and it shows. And the person who cooks the food should be given medal!!!! Go check out Winners!

The food was good. They have some unique menu items, of which my mother and I tried and were not disappointed. The bill was a bit spendy, however as the drink prices were high for drafts and what in most restaurants is a considered and/or priced as a well liquor. I recommend this restaurant, but they should look at the pricing of their drinks as I would more likely frequent another restaurant not charging what felt like prime-time South Tampa drink prices for Captain and Diet. $70 for a party of two with an app, two burgers, and three doubles and a Mich Ultra is on the high side. Someone please correct me if Im out in left field. On a side note, it would have been nice to not have a screaming kid behind me while sitting IN the bar.

Sad. We used to love this place. Server had the personality of a tree stump. We had a text coupon for $5 off of new menu items. I showed it to the server when we came in and she said no problem then brought us our tab and said the manager would not honor it because we did not buy new menu items. Im a little unclear as to how exactly we were supposed to know what were new menu items. I asked to speak to the manager and 5 minutes later the server came back and said that the manager was unavailable, but was not going to honor the coupon. Its only $5 on a $65 bill. It didnt make a huge difference money-wise, but just wanted you to know what kind of place this is.

1st visit, was for lunch server drops our food, they comp us beer thats 4 star. 2nd visit take out, say 15 min more like 30 no big deal but 3 star fish and chips. 3rd visit, waitress spills a beer on me, comps me half a beer. 15 min later go to restroom the TOILET SPRAYS WATER ALL OVER ME AND MY SON, waitresses gets nervous calls manager she says sorry. I didnt give it 1 star because the food is is great for the price and the servers are very sweet. But FFS toilet water and beer spilled on me. Thank whoever the bathrooms were clean. I dont know what to make of this place but it certainly could improve a lot.

Winners was our "go to" place until we moved. They have the best wings in town--hands down. My favorite is the garlic cilantro. When the fries are hot, they are delicious. If you want a good steak, try theirs, it is melt in your mouth delicious! Most of the people working there have been there a long time, so they know the menu, the people and our "little quirks". Its definitely a place to call home. Cold beer too!

cant put my finger on Why I disliked it but no question about it. Its definitely "family owned neighborhood place and shows it, saved $5 on buy one Fajita get one half off, so it still cost us $25 for dinner for two, definitely not a place to go watch football on small screens TVs and hang out, the Show Me bar is right around the corner, the place does not have good atmosphere, due to the remodel....just not right
