| - Been to this place twice now. The first visit I tried the pizza and it's pretty good! Tried t he Bronx Bomber and it was pretty tasty. Service was fine, so was wait time. Wasn't pleased to find out it was a Raiders bar and the people that come with that, but i'm not gonna fault em' for a football team(albeit a bad bandwagon team).
Now my second visit is what took it down to 2 stars. I went to the bar for some drinks and immediately the bartender was unfriendly. I had pulled up a post from their facebook for a free drink and she gave me a dirty look. Next order the beer I wanted was out, so I had to get a different beer. Not too big a deal.
Then I ordered an amaretto sour. This confused our simple bartender, looked at me like I was crazy and made me a glass of half amaretto and half sweet n' sour(wrong, if you didn't know.). It was okay, not the worst i've ever had. I then tried to order a Rum Collins, a very common well drink, and again the bartender looked at me like I was crazy. She asked me what it was, I explained "Uh...Rum & Collins mix? You know, Rum Collins..." She fed me some bullshit that they didn't have one or another ingredient so I just told her to stick to another Sour. I watched as she ran out of Amaretto after MAYBE a shot, looked around for more, then just filled most of the glass with sweet n' sour like I wouldn't notice. It was horrible, as it was essentially just sweet n' sour. I took that crap right off my bill and left. The bartender was inept enough to not even know how to make simple well drinks that include TWO INGREDIENTS! I can make a better cocktail than this cavewoman.
I would return to eat in the seated area(not very nice either, reminds me of a couple of tables thrown in a warehouse with Raiders swag thrown up) for the specialty pizza, but then again why do that when Palermo's is right around the corner? Will never return to the bar and they lost a lot of money on me as I would've been a regular customer for at least the next year if they weren't children who couldn't mix a Shirley Temple if their life depended on it.
