Few of my friends came to have a good time and after 20-30 minutes we left in disgust. There was a brunette waitress working at night on 03/21/09 that was a real money grubbing "person". I ordered 3 beers for total $18.00... (more)

I recently went to Backstage with a friend and her mother, and let me tell you... it's even better than Brass Monkey back in '99 when the Monkey was hot. I remember when I would walk to the Brass Monkey and they'd be closed... (more)

Silliness. Come here smashed, or you won't feel quite right... Has a cheesy tiki bar vibe and the karaoke amplifies that x 100. If you are looking for something low-key and ridiculous with a group of friends, this is... (more)

My friends and I used to frequent this karaoke bar but after our recent experience, we will never be back. The doorman was cool but the manager, some idiot named Ricco was rude and kicked us out of more tables and chairs... (more)

I've been to the Monkey off and on for the last two years or so and always had a great time. Sure, the service is a little lacking and the drinks aren't great, but when Lucas was the DJ, everyone seemed to have a good... (more)

The place doesn't look like much, and it's a tough place to find, but the karaoke atmosphere is great. Whether you're a terrific singer, or an amateur, the people are very encouraging. It gets very lively and the song... (more)

I had the prime rib sandwich($8.95) some of the worst prime rib I have ever had in my life. My friend had a hamburger($7.95) very dry. Expensive watered down drinks, that are not worth what you pay. Just awful!... (more)
