    It's not everyday you stumble upon a gem. This place is easy to find, parking is a breeze with nearby parking garages & street parking. Place is clean, food selection is good and the food ordered (fish tacos) was delicious. The drink specials were on point ($2 beers $3 wells) and the drinks were too. And yes, you do have to wear a mask when applicable. It's really not that big of a deal. Definitely planning on returning. For context, pics taken around 11am.

    Great service, great music, and great prices! The oysters are cheap, but thatโ€™s because I think they may be sourced from the gulf. The ones that are baked with fillings are the best tasting. The have excellent drink prices

    11-7pm happy hour everyday is unprecedented. Great cheap drink options. The bartenders work extremely hard but they need more help. I felt like I was bothering them when I needed another drink. Cocktail sauce is a combination of ketchup, horseradish, Worcestershire, lemon, and Tabasco sauce. Their cocktail sauce was basically Bloody Mary mix - I couldnโ€™t eat it.

    We stopped in for a couple beers and an appetizer while shopping on the border and weren't disappointed. Their "Oysters Rockefeller" were a little different than traditional, but very good. Full bar is also a plus.

    Great atmosphere and good music. I've visited tons of times, and every time, it's been fun. The drinks are affordable and taste great. When we visited, there was live music. I can definitely recommend this place for a relaxed good time.

    Oyster aren't fresh here, just don't get oyster from here. Not much if a beer selection. But have great liquor menus.

    We were a group of 8 that stopped by early afternoon for dinner after graduation. The food was amazing, Manny was great to us, and they had live music. We had a blast, and the wings were to die for. When we come back to El Paso, we will definitely be stopping by.

    I guess it's true what my wife read on the reviews that the staff has iirs preference when it comes to customers. We walked in got a table there were no waitresses at that time so we told the guy at the bar that we were gonna oder food pointed out to him where we were sitting he never came up to us and about 10 minutes later another group walked in the same guy that was gonna help us greeting the group like he knew them took their oder and totally ignored us . I had to place the oder at the bar . I guess you do have to be a regular to get service

    Awesome place. The food was great and the atmosphere was cool. Pretty close to the Chihuahua stadium and pretty convienant to get a drink and a bite before the game. Noticed they had a set up for a live band, can't wait to come back and check it out.

    Over all good experience. Thisnplace has potential to be an awesome bar but it doesn't hit rhe mark. Oysters in a half shell and shrimp cocktail...were underwhelming but we are in the desert. Service was quick and friendly. Live music and fun atmosphere. There are dart boards if that is your thing.

    It's a cute bar but the customer service is horrible! We were ignored by wait staff, we waited for 20 mins and notice the staff just helping certain ppl guess it could have been the regulars so don't think I would return, service is everything!

    After searching far and wide for the nearest place to quench my thirst, I stumbled into B-17. It was then, Victoria greeted me and quenched my thirst and broke my heart. 5 stars for the food and beer, 1 broken heart for the emotional toll.

    Our first time there, we stood waiting for someone to either sit us down or tell us we could sit wherever we wanted. The bartender/waitress just passed us a couple of times saying nothing, even though she saw us just standing there. She was rude while taking our order as well. Food was ok.

    If I could give this place -10 stars If I could. Just left the place and while we were there one of the servers accused my partner and his friend that on their last visit on July 30th they didn't pay for a bucket. Today as I requested to speak to the manager she said that she had to believe her employee and that drunk people sometimes "forget" to pay for stuff and that she was either gonna charge us the bucket or not serve us anymore. I told her that if she could check the cameras and she said that I had to pull up the date. I went to go sit down and when I had the date ready I told the server to call her and the manager was nowhere to be seen. I understand that drunk people sometimes forget to do stuff or pay for stuff but why did she say that she had to believe her employee without even checking the cameras or asking to speak with my partner. It's a shame that people have to put up with situations like this one.

    This place is a pretty good hangout if you work or live near the downtown area. An awesome after work spot. I love the fact that anybody who loves a fancy craft beer or just wants to have a good ol' Coors Banquet can partake in these libations. Trust me, there is something for everybody!!! Everything I tried is on point. I loved their bomber fries. They play all types of music and they also have a stage for live bands! A word to the wise, be ready to stand if our Locomotive have a home game! The faithful fans love to hang out here.

    My band has the privilege to play this venue and we have a blast every time we do! I especially enjoy the chicken sandwich, great prices and awesome staff! If you haven't been here yet you're missing out.

    I love this place! Good food good service and totally underrated so it's never over crowded. Good music too. Tip your bartender!!!!

  • 5/5 Anthony M. 2 years ago on Google
    My first time there but it won't be my last. What a vibrant exciting atmosphere. There was live music and dancing everywhere. A good mix of younger and older patrons. Good food and reasonable drink prices. This is not your average Oyster Bar.

  • 5/5 Tori 2 years ago on Google
    This was SURPRISINGLY good. Had medium/low expectations, just expecting bar food. And the menu is mostly fried items. BUT the fish tacos were REALLY good. The fries were solid. The drinks reasonably priced. The bar also has regular live music and dart boardsโ€”not everywhere in this town! AND this is one of the few places downtown that is open 7 days/week. Hit it up!
