👍👍 Fozzy’s Skybox literally opened last week so I expected a couple of growing pains. The staff are clearly still learning and that’s okay. Ownership strategically set up a soft opening with a limited (but still quite a variety!) menu so that the staff could learn and improve each day. With that being... People often mention great,

    Fozzy’s Skybox literally opened last week so I expected a couple of growing pains. The staff are clearly still learning and that’s okay. Ownership strategically set up a soft opening with a limited (but still quite a variety!) menu so that the staff could learn and improve each day. With that being said, the bartender Hannah was very friendly and engaging, helped to change the tv to a game I wanted to watch. I ordered the smash burger and it came out to perfection. The edges of the patty were lightly crisped and the center was juicy and overall good flavor. The atmosphere is amazing and welcoming, even for kids. While the adults can play the video gaming machines, there are pinball tables for the kids. New dart boards as well, which is one of my favorites. Open scenery outlooks the indoor soccer fields on both sides and leads out to an outdoor patio, which will be great for future live entertainment in the warmer months. The owners are great and have been in this business for years. I am looking forward to seeing them making the Skybox a success!

    Great ambience, fun for group, family or individuals. Definitely a casual sports bar vibe. Tried some beers and food and the quality and quantity was amazing.

    We had a waitress that was super rude, she was cordial and polite to other tables where Hispanics were not sitting. She was the worst ever. At the time to pay she kept staring and shaking her her no, when she noticed me watching her she dropped her head and stopped her head shake. If she does not like working with the public, this is the wrong place for her. I ordered a water with my drink and she put it at another table, she didnt bring it until she saw me go to the bar. This was the worst experience ever. Never again.

    Fozzys was the wisest move for all parties involved. The new owners are so dedicated to make this location the best it can be and you will realize that as soon as you walk in. The food and service was great! This is the best change/outcome for Sports core 2. In all my years I have never saw it packed and so often and such a great atmosphere. The owners went and still go above and beyond for patrons and also their own staff! I commend this location for being our solution and in the most positive way. *must see for yourself!!”

    Can’t say it was a great experience sorry. Jasmine was very nice but think she was over worked. Little slow coming to our table brought our check before we asked for it & I was going to order a glass of wine but didn’t after that. My BLT think maybe had 2 slices of bacon on it and had shredded lettuce which was weird & wasn’t hot. Got the chips & salsa as a side which was a mistake the salsa so hot & spicy couldn’t eat it. Overall I did not enjoy myself couldn’t wait to get home . Sorry Nick. But I will still go to Fozzys on Riverside 👍

    Fozzy's Skybox is exactly what was needed for this space. It was under utilized before but it felt like it was going to reach it's potential under this new ownership. Menu is the same as Fozzy's down the road and just as good. We started with the Bang Bang Shrimp and it just got better from there. Keep in mind the staff is still learning so have a little patience but once they get going I feel like this will be a great spot for a date night or even with the kids.

    College or high school people cooking in the kitchen, these “loaded nachos” were the worst just threw some tortilla chips on the tray and all the ingredients on top and sent it out…California burger the same no flavor the fries not fresh… my wine glass super foggy w water marks all over😫 it was our first time there we were super excited and walked out super disappointed. Will never go back 😏

    We had a company party on a Friday night. They were busy but did a great job for our party. The food was delicious and the server was completely attentive and was so friendly. We had quite a group and she handled it like a champ. Great fun!!

    Honestly so surprised that this establishment have such high stars. It’s a great idea to have Fozzys inside here for all the families that spend entire days at tournaments but it’s been done so poorly. They have to get experienced staff in here that can handle a lot of craziness. As a prior server I feel like I could do better at keeping drinks full and getting food orders in a timely manner.

    Waited 30 minutes for our food. It was not busy . Food came out cold to touch and sauces warm.

    Very disappointed. I was charged for more drinks than I had. Very under staffed. The original Fozzys is amazing so maybe my hope was set too high.
