Just drive past this place

Stopped in on a saturday night on the recommendation of neighbor. No one at the door, sat ourselves. Our server got to us eventually. The vodka there is watered down. The beer worked, but its pretty hard to screw that up.

THERE IS NO LOVE OF FOOD IN THE KITCHEN!!! Ordered the beef tacos no sour cream. TA-DA, sour cream on them. And dead cold, like they pulled it from the cooler while cleaning up and microwaved it to fake it. Yesterdays chips were as you expect yesterdays chips to be. Found a large lump in my very small salsa cup, turned out to be the hard part of the tomato where the stem attaches to. That part has no flavor knuckle heads, don't put it in the salsa. I'd have been better off dipping chips in water, it has the same flavor as the salsa. The GF ordered the quesadilla. Mass amounts of cheese is no substitute for flavor guys. Someone in the kitchen is just phoning it in. Post an ad on craigslist, plenty of people looking for work there.

• Pros: They were recommended
• Cons: lots of 'em

Get Wasted for Nothing!

This bar was AWESOME! The service was great, and they had 200 oz pitchers, 36 oz. mugs for 6$ with 4$ refills, and you get to keep the mug! Keystone pitchers for 5$. What else do I need to say. The place inside is a bit dirty, but I don't care. They had a bathroom attendant. I don't know if that was appropriate, but who cares. This place is also on a weird side of town. Hey Tin Roof, move to Midtown, you would get my support every day if you kept those nice prices that you have, and the great service you have. The waitresses are hot too! I think they do that intentionally. I am 24 years-old so it is not creepy for me to look at girls my own age, but some of these old men need to watch it!; I mean come on, they are married. Anyways, enjoy Tin Roof because you have some drinking to do if you do decide to go there.

• Pros: Drinks are dirt cheap. Don't know about the food, but the drinks are cheap.
• Cons: Some hot waitresses. I say that as a con because I think cheap beer is more important

cheap beer is my favorite brand

Nice place, but don't expect a super portion with the burrito. It would be a good "diet" option, with less meat than I am used to. Salsa is decent, the nachos rocked.....but... well, I don't think I've ever had bad nachos anyway

But the draw of the place is the margaritas anyway. Don't let me forget the $1.50 cheap beer on tap. If you can handle a keystone, you are in for a treat.

Also they have a few nice TV's, making it very easy to watch the games on Sunday.

• Pros: cheap beer, good margs
• Cons: mediocre food
