Best Place to Watch Sports!

by mdiggitydog at Citysearch

There are a ton of tv's in this place! There is not a bad seat in the house--this place is huge, with the main restaurant on one side, a GREAT outdoor seating area in the middle (yeah smokers that's what I'm talking about!), and yet another bar area on the other side. You are sure to find other fans of your team, even if you come solo like I did. Lots of cool people! Even the bartenders and servers are all cool--I can't even get mad when my boyfriend stares at all of the hotties that work there--and that's saying a lot!

  • Pros: the employees get into it to, which makes it even better
  • Cons: sometimes the food takes longer when it's a packed house

Love this place!!!!!

by ChesterCopperpot at Citysearch

I went last weekend and had so much fun! They have a huge outdoor patio where you can watch all the games on big flatscreens. The food was really good, had great specials. The staff was really friendly too. Oh, and you can smoke on the patio and play beer pong!

  • Pros: great drinks, cheap prices, nice staff

Great place for the games!

by JMullarchy at Citysearch

This is a great place to watch any sporting event. I was there to watch some football with my buddies, and was really shaocked at how many TV;s there were.

The bartenders were cool and the cocktail waitresses were pretty cute too...

They do all the UFC stuff too...and there's plenty of street parking and even vallet.

  • Pros: Great drinks- bartenders are really cool.
  • Cons: There's sometimes too many people there.

New fav place

by Anna G at Citysearch

Anywhere that actually has pitchers of beer and beer pong tables-count me in!! This is a great place to spend a Saturday/ Sunday afternoon with friends. My friends and I all went last Saturday to hang out, and we had a blast! We ended up playing beer pong all afternoon:). I hear that the happy hour and nights are awesome too, so we already have plans to go back.

Our server was great too-super friendly and quick with the replacement pitchers! I think his name was Chris. Anyway, see u there!

  • Pros: tvs everywhere, cheap drinks, great patio, awesome vibe

Crooked owner screwed employees

by Terrierag at Citysearch

The owners ran the place into the ground. in fact, most of the reviews you see were posted by the workers, who were told they wouldn't get paid until they posted a good review. Most of us were robbed of tips and earnings. They kept telling us the restaurant would stay open until our last day, when they just said this was it.

  • Pros:

Ladies i saw a lot of cute guys there!!! A great place to go with friends!!! Plus they have good deals on food/drinks different days of the week!

  • Pros: cool vibe, strong drinks, good for groups and beer pong!!!

Great place to watch football

by kellygrace11 at Citysearch

I was visiting from New York City when a friend took me to El Guapo. I loved watching all the football games outside on their MANY TV's. They had every game playing somewhere and the staff was very accomodating when helping me find a table where my team was playing. The food was good and inexpensive I would definitely recommend the nachos.

  • Pros: outdoor patio, lots of TV's, cheap food
  • Cons: smoking allowed on patio
