Comments: The bartender seemed insulted when I asked him some questions and identified ourselves. We had him mix a Top Shelf, with us selecting the tequila (El Corazon). The bartender disagreed, but complied. This mixture was recommended and tested at the Blue Mesa in Plano with very good results. The result here was particularly bad. He also overcharged us $13 apiece. We finished them but switched to beer for the rest of the evening.
The bar is very attractive, comfortable, has a fair selection, but with a bartender like this I can't recommend this location.
Dinner and service in the restaurant was good.
