Come for the $1 burgers and stay for the music. We came with a large group, but found a table pretty quickly (it's seat yourself). Nachos came out very fats (before the drinks even) and were really yummy. We tries the burgers, $1. plain, minimal charges for things like cheese, mayo and onions. Pretty good, but kind of dry. We...

Stopped in for a few drinks on a Friday evening, before dinner. Atmosphere was fun, most everyone was dressed up, no dirt bags here! The young people in Tampa really take pride in their appearance! Service was excellent and prompt, although I think the Happy Hour Price drinks were a little weaker than their drinks normally are. All in all,... More

$3 beers (40+ taps of fantastic microbrews) and 1/2 price appetizers. Our server was either having an off night or just wasn't into serving. Food was good (not great), but priced accordingly.

It is what you would expect from a restaurant/bar. However, they have a very good Blackberry, Orange and Brie salad, if you are in the mood for a small plate. Lots of beer options.

Disappointed in this Manager. Someone asked three times for tv channel to change. Waited 45 minutes for appetizers. I even ordered the food with first visit from server. It was a sloooooooooow day too. Too bad. I had bad taste even before food. Price is high for this kind of service. Where the hell is the manager?

Excellent cocktail selection and friendly, attentive service. Convenient to the Renaissance Tampa Hotel International Plaza. Had a fantastic dirty martini with a new vodka (Tito's Handmade) that the bartender suggested. I'm a convert!

Had been to Bar Louie in Nashville, was ecstatic to find one among all the great bistros and restaurants at Bay St/ International Plaza . Upscale/stylish bistro but very affordable, and comfortable: great happy hour - and one of the most extensive (and changing) micro-brew menus I've seen. Walk right by the Cheese Cake Factory next door and go here... More

Tuesday night they have a $1 burger. It is ala cart so they do charge for all the toppings but you still walk away with a good burger for a great price. Add to that all the tap options they have available and you've got yourself a nice bar.
