Love this place! Jukebox available. cash only !!!! Bathroom is abit sketchy so bring someone with you.

Margot Seeto

No Chinese mai tais , but usually a less crowded , low key , and cheaper alternative to Li Po. Juke box . The main bartender is no frills and hilarious.

Connor

The Chinese whiskey is the reason to come here and the friendly service is why you stay.

Brodie Olmstead

Cheap drinks , great vibes and so many dice games. Midnight is addictive.

Dave Huth

Vodka soda is $4.75, music is great, dice are rolling, worth a visit, stop being a stiff! pv (Dec 2012)
