      Great place to watch a game. The service was very good. I had the Thai wings and they were meaty and tasty. The $10 cover was a little off putting, but they credit it to your tab...if you remember to give the receipt to them...which I did not! Hence the only reason I didn't give them 5 stars!

      Believe the horrible and 1 star reviews here. Came with a group of 8 on Friday night and found seats quickly. The service was the server was really nice and patient. The food wasn't"t too bad.

      The wings were super dry.
      The nachos were good.
      The pizza was nothing great.

      Where the night went wrong and unprofessional was when someone in our group went to close out their tab at the bar.

      The bartender gave away their credit card to someone else. Who does that, usually ID is checked to verify prior to giving out credit cards. Obviously this didn't happen. The unprofessionalism and lack of service was crazy. To make it up, they offered a couple drinks for free. That doesn't make up for the hassle of canceling and thinking someone else has your info.

      Stay away from this place.

      Saturday was my second time at The Old Pro and definitely not the last! If you're looking for a fun, casual atmosphere (especially to go to with a large group), this is the place. Even on game days, it's usually not that hard to snag a table because there is so much seating - this bar is huge. There's also some outdoor seating, if that's your preference.

      Their drink menu offers beer towers and also pitchers of cocktails. I ordered a pitcher of their version of the Moscow Mule, which was a bit sweeter than normal, but still really good. However, what really makes this place great is their staff. Both times, our servers were fantastic, super attentive, and brought us complimentary shots! Most recently, they came out with massive jello shot syringes - so fun! Will absolutely be back soon.

      I came here for the guac and chips that I ordered on DoorDash. The service here is terrible absolutely terrible. There was one nice guy that we flagged down to be served

      We've been waiting here for one hour for our check and we even asked one of the servers but no one is bringing us our check or some to go boxes


      Look I am even taking a picture of one of the servers that is serving table next to us and nothing
      It's like we are invisible or something.

      Update:
      Just got home we were able to talk to a nice bus boy and get in touch with the manager. The manager Artis was very nice and he will be looking into this.

      Service sucks

      1 star review for the terrible service. Doesn't matter how good or ok the food or drink was.

      Service
      We had to get a menu from the bartender and a takeout box from the same bartender.
      It took forever to find a person we could flag down to get served and now we're waiting for an hour just to get the check and a take out box.

      There were two servers serving our the people on our table and on both sides of our table. Both of the waiters ignored us and we asked for a box and the check and nothing.

      Here are some photos to give you a good idea of what you are getting here.

      Came for brunch and to watch the football game. It was nice that they labeled the TVs with the games that they would play on each, so you can plan where to sit. Bottomless mimosas definitely were bottomless. My glass was rarely empty. Bloody was good, but they brought the bacon on the side and added a shot since they were out of prawns. Good was actually really good! I wasn't sure what to expect based on some reviews I saw. I got the scramble with tots and a side of bacon. They forgot about it though so they had to go back to the kitchen which is why I forgot to take a picture. Eggs were good and not overcooked. Husbands breakfast tacos were bomb!! He added chorizo to them. He did wish he had gotten tots instead of potatoes. You can also order from their regular menu if you don't want breakfast food.

      Decent place but you'll get rip off when ordering drink. We got 10 shots and total came out to be $170. That's $17 a shot and it wasnt even a full shot.

      Other places charge only $10 dollar. Go for the food and bull ride but be warn of overprice shot.

      My friends who lived in the area picked this place for dinner. They had been here awhile ago and thought the food was good. I looked at the Yelp reviews and was not impressed. Well the Yelp reviews were spot on. In trying to pick out something to eat I thought of a hamburger or pork sliders. Both got terrible reviews. But then everything got terrible reviews. I went with sliders. As stated in previous reviews they were very greasy. They were also cold. I gave them back to our waitress and when I told her they were cold she looked shocked. They heated them up brought them back and now they were warm. At this restaurant warm is about as good as it gets. The service was terrible. The food was terrible. If you are looking for a place that has terrible food and service this is your place.

      So I was taking a photography class nearby and decided to stop in on our time limited lunch break. Per the sign, I grabbed a seat myself, a a large table I sat down at 1150 and waited. Picked through the menu, picked out my draft of choice, check in on Yelp and continued to wait.

      The place as you can see from the pics were basically deserted as it was pre game. Staff were bustling around and a few tables were occupied. Shot some pics to upload and waited. I tried to flag down a few but they seemed very task oriented and must have missed the waves.

      By 1200 and 1/3 of my lunch gone, it was time to move on so I got up and left................ Hmmmm If I was method acting this would have PERFECT for an Invisible Man audition cause I NAILED IT!

      The wings at this restaurant are by far my favorite wings that I've had in a really long time. It sucks that they have to be so far away from the east coast. We went here on a Saturday night to grab a bite to eat while visiting. It seems to be a popular sports bar as it was packed out for the Golden State game and has a significant number of tv's all around!

      The wings are by far my favorite, easily. We also had the tots which were pretty good too! My friends has the frose and didn't have any complaints so I'd highly suggest this as well.

      From the looks of it, it seems like taking a Uber or lyft is your best option, but there is some street parking available!

      Great atmosphere, good food, highly recommend!

      Wings, sweet potatoes fries and tots!

      Nice little sports bar to stop by if you are in the area. Plenty of tvs to watch whatever game you may be interested in. The service is typically friendly and fast. Their ribs with garlic fries on the appetizer menu is delicious!
