Safe atmosphere,prices reasonable, John Bujak super nice. It got a little warm,humid on the dance floor could use some air or fans. ?
The music was great, What was not though was vip tickets were purchased for specific seating area and non vip persons took all the seating. I was forced to share a table with a couple who was nice enough to let my party share their table due to staff not enforcing better seating rules. Which this couple ended up leaving halfway through the show because people were not in assigned seating and standing in front of everyone else. Food was ordered and not brought out until 2 hours after the order was placed (nachos and wings)If there was more staffing I feel it would have been a better experience.
What a dump! We pay for tickets that are VIP. Why? To start we are greeted at the door with rudeness and cannot walk another step until we show tickets or cash. Purposely getting there early to have a drink and food.... We ask about the menu and the bartender acts like he is being put out and why does he need to be bothered. We order drinks, well what we thoughts were drink. I suppose if we were five and wanted Kool-Aid all would be cool. A margarita from a mix and not even cold. Still, trying to stick it out since we paid to hear the band. singer no show as we listen to loud sound checks. Food ok. We order a second round of drinks, and the waitress comes back with drinks. Tells us we cannot order fancy drinks (cosmos is fancy???) Cosmo had no vodka, and I did not drink the rest to find out what was in it!!!! My friend's margarita was warm but had ice. That is trick maybe they should go into the magician business. We paid $150.0 to eat a small bowl of rice and leave. Yes, it was so disgusting leaving was the option. and we meet a couple that did the same. They said owner was extremely rude to them. I imagine there were others that left too. The staff were extremely rude, and the venue was unclean, not entertaining. An experience no one should have to endure. We will never visit or recommend this place Just horrible.....
Don't waste your money on a special event here. 1) The act will be outside. You can't hear it inside. 2) They will have VIP seating (14 tables, 4 chairs each), General Admission (standing room only for about 18 tops), and a closed off dance floor. 3) The sound level from the outside is so low inside, you can't hear the act(s) you paid admission to hear. That's why there is music going on inside at the same time. 4) As long as they have your admission, management could care less.
A good dive bar, so I was happy with that. But overall not the most exhilarating place, but it also was a Monday and an open mic. The open mic players I respected for getting up and performing.
Absolutely love this place, great music wonderful food, absolutely amazing owners that treat you like family. If you have never been here and experience Tucson's local music talent, this is one place you need to stop in and check out!
Great rockin atmosphere.
Awesome night first time ever to be here seen a rocking band Blackwater Lake
Great venue for lots of events. The open air court yard makes for a pleasant experience. If you have an event that is scheduled there. Would definitely go. The bar is shocked but doesn't have everything.
Band was great. Packed the patio. Busy night. They were running out of food. Order early. Loved the guy at the door. Bartender was nice in the chaos.
