    Outstanding food, beer, service, and atmosphere! We came on a Friday night with a 2 year old and a 3 month old. It was the best night out we have had as a family in a long time. There was a variety of people there all to enjoy delicious food and drink. Our experience with all employees was top notch. We cannot wait to return!

    It was a very festive environment. We thought the drinks and snack foods was right with the theme. I surely love the Santa-gria and my boyfriend loved the drink with the Fireball and Cinnamon in and the drinks were served in festive glasses. The karaoke was nice too. Yes, I would recommend to our friends. Also bec back next year for Christmas to celebrate our 1st Anniversary of our relationship...Tinsel Taven was our 1st dating place....Thanks!!!

    Great place for a small bite and drinks! HUGE beverage menu full of bourbon selections. I suggest not going there if you want a full meal or bigger menu selection, but what they had to offer was very good. The Fried Green Tomatoes and Orange-Sambal Wings were delicious. Also recommend the Lamb Flatbread.
