A sports bar that towers, literally, over the competition.

by Rick Munarriz

You don't expect to take an elevator to get to a sports bar, but that is exactly what you will have to do here as you rise up to the ninth floor of the Venetia residential condo tower. The altitude is the only difference, as you will find familiar staples like beer on tap, billiard tables offering buck games, and a fleet of DirecTV-powered television monitors. Beyond standard pub fare like wings, burgers, and ribs, heartier entrees include chicken Marsala, blackened shrimp fettuccini, and sirloin steak. Many patrons live in the building, but you won't stand out if you don't.

Best Burgers and wings in town, great place to watch sports

by normshe

Food is great and the prices are even better. Great 1/2 lb cheeseburger with fries for $5.95 and my husband had a 14 oz New York sirloin for $16.95 with a salad and potato

Discriminatory Bar!

by zperry

This bar refused service to my African-American friends because we sent a drink back that was nothing but cranberry juice (sans vodka). I had been going to Mike's for quite sometime never with a problem. The first time my black friends join us, we are asked to leave. Sounds a little convenient that before we got our first drink and dinner we are asked to leave. DO NOT GO TO THIS BAR.

• Pros: None
• Cons: Discrimination by the owners
