  Its a hotel bar. Its nice, clean, quiet, safe. They serve more than just the usual beers on tap and they also serve food. If you are looking for a quiet clean place to hang out this would be the place. I think the younger crowds would rather be somewhere else however. Overall I like it and would go back.  
  
  Personally, I think if the bar was in the front of the building instead of the back, it would be much more successful. However this is just my guess because I personally don't like walking through the lobby to get to the place.

  Good location and nice, clean bar. You can tell a lot of the local businesses around here come wind down on Fridays here and the bar staff can get to you pretty quickly.

  GREAT place to catch a ballgame if your an out of town-er like me!! They have the coverage of the HOUSTON teams on the big screens, but one of the few sports bars with enough HDTV's to accommodate other fans as well. Great atmosphere, and the service is outstanding. I have been there for three game days and from the second visit, they knew my team and my beer!! Really good food also, salads are fresh and nachos are crispy! Good selection of beers too!! Overall A++

  Not just another sports bar.
  
  I have been looking for a classy sports bar to go and watch games in for a while now. I liked going to Indigo Joe's and still do occasionally but this place has resolved my search. What a special place. It's well priced, great location, clean, and plenty of room to move around.  I was driving through Baton Rouge about 8 months ago and stopped in to the sister location there and liked it. We now have one in Houston that just opened up and I couldn't be more excited.  Their Tequila Lime Shrimp is unique and fantastic and will run you about 10 bucks.  
  
  Their beer selection is not to be surpassed by their wine offers either. You can enjoy a sip of Kendall-Jackson Chardonnay or a Korbel Brut Sparkling as well.
  
  It's new - so everyone there is excited to meet new guests and eager to serve you. So the service is consistent and they don't try to talk to you too much if they see that you are into the game.
  
  My favorite dish is the Jack Daniels Glazed Salmon.  I'm a big pizza and beef guy. And for me to recommend something that swims in the water is a rarity. But it's awesome and totally worth the 16 bucks.
  
  Look to spend about $30 for an ap and a main dish. If you like to kick back a few like I do tap beers run $3 a piece.
