Okay so this bar is actually a hidden gem. Good selection of drinks along with a great atmosphere. Bartenders are really chill too.Some people have complained about the jukebox playing only edited songs. It does and doesnt. It has both edited and explicit songs. To me this isnt a big enough reason to drop a star on this review. Just put a dollar in and choose a song.Anyway, yeah this bar is worth going to. Always poppin at night when Ive gone too. Definitely will be going back!

I like this place. And Sydney is a pretty cool young lady. I like her. Its normally a rock bar but she sometimes has it like a nice piano oldschool rockabilly jazz bar and she serves up some really nice craft cocktails with a spin.

Soooo the music is the music is edited.. like we are in highschool & parents are monitoring the music. When I arrived the bartender asked me what I wanted, I asked her for a moment to decide. When I was ready, I motioned to her to let her know Id chosen my drink. She looked at me, almost dismissively & then ordered Shanay the other bartender to make my drink. This bar was very different 3 years ago. Shanay was very responsive & personable. There used to be dancing & a DJ...

Awesome atmosphere friendly waitstaff, and attentive bartenders. Just a great place to unwind after a tough month of business negotiations and single handedly closing the biggest contract of my career.

Not the place for you to go if your not white. Not being racist, Im part white. But its a white bar to be honest.

This place was pretty chill. Got served pretty quick. It was also a weekday, so that is probably why. I would love to be there when you can operate the touch tunes!

Great bar. Great staff. If youre staying at the Aloft Hotel, this place is a most. But its not really a lounge. Its a bar.

Bar smells awful. Nobody must every clean here. Restroom has no soap or paper towels. I have been in better bars on st marys...and most of them are bad.

I went there on Saturday night. My tab was $17, I tipped 3, but the bartender decided to change the tip after I left. They tipped themselves $20. You cant call the place because their phone number doesnt work. Its damned criminal. Needless to say Im filing a report and the bartender that decided to rob me will sorely regret it. If they are bold enough to tip themselves that heavily theyve been doing it a while. Beware!

Its alright, the night we went we asked for three different drinks and they didnt have the main alcoholic beverage. Its a bar, how do you not have particular liquor?

Weakest drinks I have ever had at a bar, only one bartender. Smelled like a dirty mop inside the place. I would not recommend spending any money on these watered down drinks.

The place is very small, music way too loud for a lounge. Also, no places or sitting areas to loungeNice for a drink after work but not much else.

Right off the bat - Sausage fest. Most women would love this. NO! Its a MARRIED sausage fest. The ones who arent are douchebags. Old ones, young ones, fat ones, skinny ones. Wanna be players - all of them are nasty. Bartenders are rude, rude, rude! Drinks are cheap but theyre all ice. Dont be fooled by the price. It smells really bad. I think another review mentioned this too. Thats because its TRUE. Did I mention it smells funky? Someone suggested we go here because I am hispanic and my husband is black. We were told we would fit in. Frankly I was offended. I feel like the environment makes us look bad. There are some regular friend clusters that reek of desperation. My husband and I are happier on the patio at Taco Cabana. Come here if you want a stinky, seedy experience. Dont worry if youre married. No one here cares. They will buy you drinks anyway. Were slowly but surely coaxing our friends who are regulars here away. There are far better places with drink specials to go to in SA.

Ghetto club with music so loud and with heavy bass sounds that it vibrates the walls of the neighboring Aloft hotel. I was awakened at 1:00 am inside my hotel room and had to call the police. I walked in the door of this place and it was over 120 decibels of noise. What is a seedy low life club with crappy music and pimp types doing in a residential area next to a hotel with business travelers? Does San Antonio have a noise ordinance or zoning laws? Get rid of this club and move it to a more appropriate location - where pimps and drug dealers are...Damn the people who run this place and disturb everyone until 2:30 or 3 am. Are they bringing in revenue to San Antonio like the hotel? No they are bringing in the worst type clientele and violating the noise ordinance.
