DO NOT BUY A GIFT CERTIFICATE AT THIS PLACE. THEY CHANGE THEIR NAME EVERY 90 DAYS AND THEN DONT HONOR THE CARDS even though its the same owners. The waiter told us that an owner was there and he would ask if the card is good.....well the owner was too busy at the bar doing shots to do anything but say NO, WERE NOT HONORING THAT. AND The wifi still has their old name....LOL. I ordered a pulled pork sandwich and not only was it less than 2oz of SHREDDED pork, it was served on RYE BREAD ???? (An No, it did not say that on the menu) When I asked about the Rye Bread, the waiter said that next time they would give me different bread. Finally, the menu said $11 and the bill said $12 for the sandwich, both of which are a ripoff for a 2oz shredded pork sandwich on Rye....ridiculous....and they wonder why they keep going out of business. I saw that another review on here said the prices were wrong for them too? Nice. Advice for owners: You should have honored the gift card and made sure that a 1st timer was well taken care of instead of sitting at the bar wondering why your place is failing EVERY TIME. And stop charging prices more than whats on the Menu. The only reason I noticed it was because I thought $11 was a ripoff and then it was $12 on the bill. Lesson Learned. Fool me once, shame on you....

Staff is very unfriendly. My wife and I sat for 10 min waiting to be greated as the male server in our section passed by us multiple times. Finally a girl from another section came and asked us if we had been helped when we said no she gave us an odd look and said well let me get you menus. 30sec later the male in our section approached our table, did not give us a name or any type of greeting but just asked if we knew what we wanted to drink. I was taken back by this as we both had no idea what they even had and he was very annoyed and proceeded to tell us about some pint night that neither of us could understand because he said it so fast and then he told us about happy hour being from 11 to 7 however it was 7:30 and happy hour was clearly over. The girl returned with menus so we asked for waters to give us a chance to see what they had and he said sure and the proceeds to tell us that when he got back to the table we would need to have our i.ds out if we wanted to order drinks. My wife has been a server all her life and has never felt the need to treat people this way. I see why they have a hiring sign in the window and the place only hand 5 tables sat and a full bar. We will not be going back

Overpriced bar food and they rip you off. Their menu said the waffle burger was $9 but we were charged $11. and the burger was nothing but 2 eggo waffles a burger and a fried egg. You can make 6 of them at home for less than that. I paid cash and they claimed they didnt have quarters so I was given bills minus the change. They never once asked if I had change. They just expected me to accept the what they gave me as change. Read their yelp reviews too. Theyve shorted customers, with either incorrect change, no change at all or they made them pay for drinks not ordered.

Do not expect them to abide by their posted hours. Four times I have come in 2-3 hours prior to their posted closing time, only to be told that they were closing early and that it was already last call. Very inconvenient to drive up there only to have to leave because they want to change their hours last minute. So, in an attempt to prevent this, I called one night to ask when they were planning on closing. Their response: "we dont know, whenever we feel like it." I dont "feel like" going up there anymore.

My husband and I stopped in to have a beverage and some appetizers. The deviled crab hush puppies were awesome. We also ordered the sour cream and onion fonduta. It was rich and creamy and filled us up. Prices were great and the servers were nice and knew the menu. We have also visited the owners other restaurant in Denton, Hannahs Off the Square, and this was a more laid back sports-bar feel yet still as elegant and classy. We will be returning!

Food was average. Burger was dual in flavor, but the egg-toasted bun was very good. Service was horrible. One waitress and too many people to assist. That is a owners issue. Seemed to be other employees and owner but none seemed to care about customers. I know there are better places to spend my money. Finally, the pricing was not worth the value of the food.

Food was good, service was decent. I bought a BALT. I bit into my sandwich and found a long balled up black hair in my mouth. The bartender/ waiter told me no one there has black hair so he doesnt know. I dont have black hair either. Not hunting for a free meal, but comping the sand which or the soda wouldve been nice. Might go back, but probably not.

We like the location in keller, waiters are nice, however more than once we were charged $15 a drink for a cosmo with Kettle One Vodka....thats more than Bob steak house prices!...twice the owner (women lied with excuse, oh thats just the price in our system for non house vodka drink) Have a clear price, dont blame it on the "system" more than once.

Friendly and attentive service at the bar, reasonable drinks, good appetizers, solid black bean and jalapeño cream soups. House chips are well done, hotdogs (Hounds) are good sized, fresh, and well-dressed. Good central location in Keller, although parking access can be a bit roundabout. Decent local beer selection and full bar. Recommended.

Im still getting a feel for the place. Dax, the bar tender is friendly. Hes attentive and gets what you need quickly without complaint. That said, the place feels pricey. $7 for a pint of Shannon Irish red. $11 for crab hush puppies. They have 20 beers on tap and a large liquor selection. Ill update this as I learn the place better.

Always a great time! The new theme and culture has captured the attention of all the locals. The food and service are the best ever here. Everything is consistently above expectation and the customers are fun! Thats the best part. Nice to have a place close by that cares about the locals!

Fruit was sour, food was cold, and the female owner was rude and argued with us basically telling my daughter that the fruit wasnt bad. I know well never go back and have a feeling that they wont be open for much longer anyway with food thats horrible and service thats even worse.
