Amazing food and the atmosphere is on point.

This was a nice place to eat dinner. We arrived about 6 on a Wednesday and it was easy to find a table. They have some seating outside, one table and then a long outside bar with stools.The atmosphere was comfortable. The sunshine through the window made it easy to see while inside. The employees were very friendly! I appreciate that the music was kept at a level where it was still easy to have a conversation, rather than cranking it up as it got busier.We had the pork tacos and the hamburger. Both were good, and good sized portions. We saw several plates of nachos walk by, and I am pretty sure they could easily feed 2 people!The arcade area and pool table are separated from the rest of the bar by a wall, which made it surprisingly quiet and calm. The games and photo booth all take dollar bills or quarters, and they have an ATM and quarter machine on hand.The bathrooms are gendered, and I did not see a single use/gender neutral or ada accessible restroom.

Excellent tacos on taco Tuesday. They were filled to the top and usually cost between $10-15 for two tacos but on taco Tuesday they go for $7 any meat. Good beers and great service. The vibe is dark kinda gothic but no weird people to worry about. The food is delicious and the decor very interesting. I highly recommend this place.

Great Food , Great Service. I really liked it ?.

Love this place! Spooky decor, amazing drinks, and a great vegan menu so we all can find something to eat! Tonight I tried the Bruja Blast and the Pineapple Death Punch for my drinks and both were fantastic. We shared the Fried Avocado with the table and they were really tasty. Between the whole group we tried the Mojo Pork Bowl, their Philly Cheesesteak, the Buffalo Bill, and their Nachos. Everyone loved their meals and we will definitely be back to sample the all day breakfast! The guys behind the bar are super friendly and helpful with how ordering works and the service is top notch! Definitely our new favorite spot!

Fyi it is very dark in here but that fits with the theme. 1st time here I tried the chimichurri steak bowl.the meat had great flavor there was a little more beans than necessary in my opinion but it wasn't too bad. They have a variety on their menu so that's nice and their drinks looks pretty good too.

Finally went and tried it out and wow! It was so good and the staff were so friendly! We will got sure return!!I got the Buffalo Buffalo bill and my gf got the churches cheesesteak, we started with the croquettas!Everything had so much flavor!

This is one of the coolest places ever, and the only real goth bar in Tacoma. The atmosphere is spooky yet inviting, the cocktail names are clever and the AMAZING! Seriously, the food! The also have a vegan menu. They always have horror movies and good music, as well as a little arcade. I can never get enough of this place. I have nothing but good things to say

Good food good drinks and great customer service and atmosphere

Excellent food and amazing decor!
