I met my girlfriend here in this upsacle lobby bar. I was having a maker's on the rocks when she walked in. This place used to be Jesse's. He had a black and white tv with a microwave. Kind of like a dumpy living room. I am so glad this place is not that once old and outdated dump.

A place to forget the outside world.

Overall rating:

Food - 4 stars - No Food served here, but their spicy snack mix is very tasty.
Ambiance - 5 stars - The interior of the bar is cozy, and the back room is very relaxing.
Service - 5 Stars - The bartender was very friendly, yet not in our business.
Tv/sound - 4 stars - They have two HD tv's at the main bar, but should put two in the back room. The music volume was perfect for conversations.

What a great place to slip away to have a few cocktails before going back to work.

I've seen better...

... and in the same location too. When the bar was Jesse's it had style, warmth, and attitude - now it's all unfounded attitude.
