Love this place! Odd location surrounded by auto repair shops, but has a great rock n roll vibe inside. Bartenders are great.
Decor is cool: light fixtures over bar are made from drumsticks—some signed by bands like Metallica. Lights over pool tables are made from drums.(see pics)

The Mexican food at this place is incredible! Authentic flavors, perfect seasoning, and vibrant presentation make every bite a delight. The tacos and enchiladas are especially amazing. A true must-visit spot for Mexican cuisine lovers!

I had visited this unprofessional bar . Please people don’t even bother coming to low class black lounge bar .The bar tender was so unprofessional asking for me and my nephews identification like 20 minutes after we have been seated . Then from the bar she’s rudely pointing her nasty fingers out to both of us to bring our ID ? yelling on top of her ugly voice . I wasn’t going take this rude attitude from low class bartender . So I got up and took matters into my own hands words were exchanged between me and nasty ? bartender . She kicked us out of her dirty nasty bar . Then the police ? were called in. . Spoke to the officers they were cool got on my Uber and went to another welcoming bar . BTW THIS BAR IS NOT WORTH AND STARS ⭐️ . Especially if you get discriminated against on Gender Identity.

Back Lounge is one of my favorite local bars to stop by at. The place is well kept up and run by some amazing folks that care deeply about their business and customers. They recently setup a pair of Diamond pool tables that are kept in good condition. Since they open earlier than a lot of local bars (12pm) and I have free time in the afternoon, I love to come down midday and get some pool practice in while enjoying their awesome selection of draft beer on nine ice-cold taps. The crown jewel of the place has got to be the amazing staff, who are always so friendly and attentive. Shout out to Marta, Bita, Sam, Trixie, Rhonda, Casey, even the big guy Phil -- they are the best and I'll keep coming back as long as they're here.

One bartender charged me $17 for a pitcher. I gave her a $20 bill and she took it and said thanks without offering change assuming i was giving her the whole thing. I didn't go back up till the other bartender arrived and only went to that one the rest of the night. I never bothered complaining cause i didn't want any grief. I was there to have a good time so I'm just putting it here instead.

Very cool vibes and friendly patrons here. It's definitely one of the top places to become a regular. Think of this as a spot to recharge from the standard of the bay and just have a good time.

Update to previous review and owner's response:
First of all, if you have cameras, then you would see or maybe not see depending on the angles of where your cameras are pointed that I walked directly through the front door directly in front of her as she's talking to a customer which is fine but still not observant obviously can't do two things at once as I did as a bartender and say hello or show some kind of acknowledgment when the door 15 ft in front of you opens and someone walks in and less her hearing is bad as well. (Music not loud fyi) Then you also implied that I was upset over getting asked for my ID but what you did not see from the angle of your camera is the look of disgust on her face that she gave me in response to saying that I've been waiting on which was a look of irritation so obviously your camera (with no audio) only caught my face reaction to her, not hers but nice try. Detective work is not your strong suit. Believe what you want, could care less about not returning to your lame pathetic bar but your other bad reviews mention her as well and back up my claim so this is not just my opinion obviously of her being unprofessional. Oh and you mentioned that she had a boot on her leg as if that prevented her ears and eyes from working, I didn't complain about her walking slow to get my drink, nice try again?

Today I walked in the bar and sat for 5 minutes without acknowledgement from the female bartender, as she talked away with one customer unable to multitask and scan the room for new customers or others in need. I was a bartender for years, I knew how to be efficient and multitask. I then decided to go to the restroom which I left after 5 minutes only to come back to a still ongoing conversation with her blinders on apparently. After more 2 minutes of sitting, I walk to the other end of bar and said can I get a drink? She knew I was upset and instantly got an attitude and said she did not see me in last 10 minutes and that she's never seen me before as an excuse. She then played the victim blaming her leg in a cast for not seeing me as if her eyes and ability to be observent of front door
( directly in front of her at the time) and say hi, had to do with her injury?(Gaslight much?)she said she went to the back which I saw but she was only the one minute and I came before that occurred. Because I called her out, she said to put down my drink she had made me and get out after giving back credit card. This girl will be costing you business from a previous bar owner perspective but it's your bar. All I know is the best and busiest bars have the most observant, friendly bartenders who will get regulars that will pack that bar. Avoid this place and their unprofessional trailer trash bartender?
