yes yes yes
Finally, a Crazy Gringo thread. Way overdue!
I was turned onto this place by a good friend 4 years back. The funny thing is, if not for him, I would have never even considered going in. Just a stereotype, I guess. It really is a biker bar.
You see all the bikes lined up, and the way the folks having a but (smoking) out front are dressed....and if it is not your style, you'd think..."no way". But you'd be very wrong! Yes, they are for sure, hard core bikers, but the place and people are great. There certainly are cliques at the bar, but no biggie.
When the bar is full, we always grab one of the high tops located right were you walk in....you always get a friendly greeting. And there is nothing in the world like their margarita, served in a mason jar, when coming in out of the sun, after a day of boating.
Before heading thru the channel, I always pull the boat into the Weirs, and head up for a drink and a snack. The free chips and salsa are unreal (largest chips you'll see). Lately, we've been getting the Southwestern Eggroll, on the recommendation of the waitress Jasmine.
And on that note, she too is fantastic. I've been going for 4 years or so, and I'm sure she has a ton of regulars, but somehow, each spring, on my first visit, she'll give me smile and say ..."Margarita, rocks, salt...right?"....Of course, the memory probably comes from the fact that at times, friends and I have made a bit of an impression...but it's all good.
If you are a fan of "chain Mexican", Chilis and such..go to this place, and the food will blow you away.
And if you enjoy a few drinks...same deal. Give it a bid.
