Had a fun time this past new years eve. We loved the holiday decor and the whole crowd was fun! The burger was exceptional! Great time.

Good service and nice atmosphere

Great atmosphere with very good pool players. Melissa(Mel) has a unique touch of service - she ensures every drink rests beautifully on a coaster. I have observed her overtime, and she's meticulously consistent at it. Even when you change seats, she brings you a new coaster. This subtle but professional etiquette makes her standout. Overall, service is excellent!!

The best bacon cheese burger, Steak dinner, Ribs and Chicken dinners! Many more combinations! All come and taste! SEE YOU ALL AT THE LANDING STRIP BAR AND GRILL!
