My girlfriend arrived first. the waiter passed her numerous times but never spoke to her so she went to the bar to get her drink. This happened all night until another friend asked for the manager!

Shout out to the bartender Trey with the long dreads, he took my food order and was able to accommodate my food allergies. Thanks to him I had amazing nachos.
