πŸ‘ Great little hangout spot with a decent assortment of food choices and drinks. My wife took me there on my birthday; while it wasn't our first time having their food, it was the first time we were dining in. They were unable to fulfill my initial meal order but the burger and fries I eventually took... People often mention service, good, drinks, time, experience, great, Great, waitress, nice, music,

    Great little hangout spot with a decent assortment of food choices and drinks. My wife took me there on my birthday; while it wasn't our first time having their food, it was the first time we were dining in. They were unable to fulfill my initial meal order but the burger and fries I eventually took was good enough to make up for it. Our drinks were served promptly and the food did not take long to be served, which we appreciated. My wife also enjoyed her meal. As for the waitress, she was reasonably helpful. All in all, A-Bar is a good place to go for a drink or to grab a bite with friends. Would definitely go back.

    Its a cozy vibe, you could have dinner here straight from work, or if u want to dress up, dress code is totally dependent on your occasion. Also depending on the time your there for (crowd) the service is pretty quick.

    The food isn't bad and the service isn't terrible. The prices are really affordable so that was a plus. There is usually a buzz here, so if you are looking for a quiet place then this wouldn't be the best location. Overall it is an OK restaurant.

    Definitely wouldn't reccomend. The waitress was very rude and I waited over an hour for my food and it was a simple order. I was never updated on the progress of my food. When my friend was about to order she went "yuh can talk inuh" to my friend who wasn't even ready to order. Terrible service. I'd NEVER recommend. Btw the place wasn't packed. Update !! After waiting an hour and 10 minutes we got our food. We asked to have it to go loooool Homegirl said we gotta take the food and she'll take two boxes to us. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ she's still back with the boxes after 30 minutes btw. I guess they make the boxes in the kitchen too !

    Great place for good food, nice vibe and drinks. I especially endorse their Beer Wings Wednesday....for JMD 1500 you get loaded fries and 10 wings with some amazing sauces to choose from. My go to sauce is Appleton but the Strawberry Buffalo is worth a try. You also get a complimentary beer or you can pay an additional JMD 100 and opt for fruit juice. Generally speaking prices are just about average for the area and menu items and there is something for everyone.

    Great service (super fast and attentive), Great food (traditional and unique), nice vibe... though the music was too loud for conversation. Kids not allowed. Live DJ. Full bar.

    The experience was better than my last. Not to say it was bad but I guess I had a good waitress. Food was generally good. No doubt. And I am a hard critique when it comes to food. It passed. That was just appetizer

    I had the worst experience ever. I had celebrated a special event at this restaurant before and I had a great experience, so when I wanted to treat my father to lunch your restaurant was my choice for doing so. The lady doing the sensitization was a familiar face ; she did not say anything to us so we just walked in and took a seat. A waitress come and explained that she would be our server and all we said was ok and we will ordering in a few minutes because I was waiting on some other persons . The familiar face who was at the door came in and start talking to the other waitresses around the back, not sure what she told them but from then the experience started going down hill. It was like we had to be begging the waitress to serve us. I remember at one point we wanted water and it was another waitress who came and I said "thank you" to her and she didn't even look at me. My father was so upset. Never again because I believe professionalism should be at the forefront of everything.

    I wish I could say something pleasing about this restaurant but I honestly can’t , my family and I went there for a night out where we were greeted at the door we weren’t even directed to our seats , we had to find our own seats as instructed by the server , the music was so low I could literally hear everyone convo and the sound of the blender around the bar as if I was at home in my kitchen . After asking if we could get a bit of volume on the music the answer was no without a reason . We received a filthy utensils , hair was in my aunts salad and my sisters ketchup . After we brought it to the attention of the server she behaved annoyed and oblivious towards it as if we had placed them in the food.

    The place is a fun little spot to chill with friends, the food is decent and their bartenders definitely know what they're doing. πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘. Only problem is that the tables need to change, there's a couple cracks in a few of them. The wait time to could be improved as well, but the customer service is really great!

    My friends took me there for my birthday lunch. It wasn't my first time there but it was the best experience I had ever received there. The young lady ( shoot, I forgot her name) was pleasant and friendly. She was awesome.

  • 1/5 Jules K. 3 years ago on Google
    Misleading food was the worst since I’ve been to Jamaica I ordered shrimp Alfredo which is normally served with penne pasta they serve it with spaghetti, nothing mixed in the shrimps and chicken was just dumped on top of the spaghetti ugh first and last experience! Food over priced and not worth it!!

  • 5/5 Fab On W. 3 years ago on Google
    My first time going and it was a great experience. The ambiance, food, music, excellent. One thing though, I use a wheelchair so you guys don't have a ramp, would be better if management discuss how the facility can add one to the steps, but other from that, I'll definitely be coming back

    I went there with my friends and we had three waiters (it was kind of confusing), service was a bit terrible (idk if it's because we were under 18)I ordered a non alcoholic drink and got it when I was ready to leave. Food was alright wish there was more toppings on my loaded fries.

  • 5/5 Ayanna T. 2 years ago on Google
