Taps Signature Cuisine & Bar

Extremely slow and disorganized service. Frustrating. Lukewarm coffee, difficult to get refills. Once food arrived, order was accurate and food was decent. Overall, poor service left the impression.

Be prepared for terrible service and a rough clientele. An older man took a swing at another guy and was put in a headlock and taken outside. There’s a reason they have a bouncer at this bar. Weird vibe for being so close to the wigwam. It’s a neat building, but below average food and service. Too bad. Such a great location.

I visited this establishment last night with my brother and his wife. I started the night off with a double jack on the rocks which I was charged 10 dollars for. I went back to the bar for the same drink. This time I got a different bartender who charged me 13 dollars. At the time I didn’t say anything in case the first bartender hooked it up. Instead I waited for the server and asked him the price of a double jack. When he came back he told me it was 9.50. Basically watch the prices as there is one bartender who is obviously over charging and pocketing the rest. Aside from this discrepancy I did enjoy my time and like the bar. Because it’s a nice place I want to rate it higher but this one bartenders practices is not acceptable.

Would have walked in and right out again, but a very attentive waiter immediately asked us in and told us to find our favorite place… very comfortable and friendly… I think grey plaid flannel should be your regular uniforms at Taps! Food was good… starving and asked for the quickest appetizer… queso was out in two minutes! Beer wings and pizza were fresh, hot and yummy… sat and had an extra beer because we were so comfy…

Easily some of the worst service I’ve ever had. Over priced and overrated at even one star. Rude servers. Slow service. Food average at best. Beers ok if you can get any. Stay away. Lots of better options out there.

Didn’t even get to have a good beer here. Waited to catch a bartender at the bar although there was a lot of activity by at least 3 different people (?) behind the bar until someone finally asked us what we wanted. This place wasn’t even half full on a Friday night at 8pm? When we finally ordered from the menu posted on the chalkboard «Voodoo» we were told they were out. Well «Hello» when your’re out don’t you typically erase it off the chalkboard?! We ended up leaving disappointed with the service and availability of the posted drink menu.

Came here with my wife for the first time today. We walked In ans were greated by the owner. He explained the craft beers, asked what we normally like. He then recommended a beer that was awsome!. We order bruschetta was out of this world. Sorry honey even better than yours. The balsamic vinegar they drizzle on it sets it off. I jad the prime dip. You can taste every Ingredient!
We will come back and bring friends.

Love the selection of beers on draft and the food is to die for. Bruschetta is the way to go! Sever was happy and enjoyed her job. Will be coming back for sure!

Used to be awesome but the new owner ruined this place. Servers are slow and clueless and the owner hangs out getting drunk with the weirdo regulars… or maybe those are his buddies. Its also not zoned for smoking but the owner ignores that. Stinky with scary cougars and pervs.

I came here with a friend for dinner. The waitress seemed to be intoxicated and wasn’t really paying attention. We ordered drinks and that took about 30 minutes to get. We asked for a menu when we first arrived and that didn’t come out until about 45 minutes later. She kept pushing the lasagna on us when we didn’t want it. I don’t think I’ll be returning anytime soon. Not a good thing when there are other restaurants 2 steps away.

Sometimes they have a decent craft beer selection. I wouldn’t drink anything else there. Soo, I sitting at the bar enjoying an Oskar blues ipa and watched the bartender pour a Coors light for a customer. In the middle of the pour, the tap blew and without hesitation he poured it out and put in budlight instead… gave it to the customer like nothing ever happened.

Believe the negative reviews. I came here after a round of golf, in order to have dinner and a few brews. The service wasn’t terrible, it was non-​existent. The waiter seemed to take an eternity to take our order.
I ordered the Penne with Italian sausage, only to find out, they were out of sausage. The waiter suggested an alternative. I went ahead and ordered it. What I ended up with was penne with canned tomato sauce and what I swear was frozen meatballs. At $ 12…what a shame.
As I’m done with my food and beer, I wasn’t asked if I wanted anything else, my check was just dropped off. Service and food were bad, I will never return.

My husband and I used to go to this bar regularly. The last two visits have been a major disappointment. The service was horrible. Additionally, I tried to food and drink, but was told they were out of some of the food items that I requested. Wow! They need a Bar Rescue.

Got a groupon to try this place out… not impressed. Bad service — food was not great. Will not be back. To top it off, a 20% gratuity was added to our bill.

Awesome place to hangout!!! The bartenders n the servers were very friendly and were on top of their game!
The food was very tasty … Will come back for sure!

Great music and drinks!

Very clean, chill atmosphere.
Would have given it 5 star rating if it had a better selection of beer on hand.
Cheers!

Dined at Taps on a Sunday afternoon around 2pm. There were a few people sitting at the bar and 2 or 3 tables of couples sitting outside. We were the only table inside.
At first the waitress seemed pretty good. We ordered 2 iced teas and juices for our kids. Upon first sip of the iced tea we were instantly turned off… think «bitter beer face». It was gross. It was almost like it was an instant iced tea mix and NOT freshly brewed. It was kind of cloudy too. Yuck! Saved some money and switched to waters.
Husband and I shared their hot wings which were pretty good. Not your standard hot wings. Husband ordered the taco salad which he liked. I got a salad with romaine hearts that was topped with chopped tomatoes, bacon and green onions and had a gorgonzola dressing on the side. The presentation of my salad was impressive. I did wish it would have had more of the tomatoes, bacon and green onions. There was probably a max amount of 3TB total, divided equally on top of 3 large, vertically standing, cut romaine hearts. Next time I’ll be sure to add a protein to it.
Now, for the service. I felt like we were there way too long for how not busy they were and for the amount of waiting we had to do. Our waitress, altho very nice, was constantly on her cell phone (checking FB I assume?) and chatting with someone in the kitchen area ALL THE TIME. Now, I wouldn’t have quite minded that if we didn’t have to wait a long time to say… get refills on our drinks… or get our check… etc. As time went on and the more waiting we did I got increasingly irritated.
The last straw was when I paid, the waitress shorted me $ 0.57 change that was owed back to me. I brought this up to her attention… mind you… waving at her from across the room didn’t get her attention… I had to walk over to HER to address the issue. What was her response to my saying, «I paid with a $ 20 and I was shorted $ 0.57»? She said, «oh, I thought I put that in there». Uh huh. SURE. Get your face out of your phone and pay attention to your job. Gee, I thought I put your tip on the table *eye roll*.
Overall, it’s a nice little place. I’d go back and make sure we had a different waitress to try out more foods.

This is the kind of place I’d want to stumble across if I were visiting this city. It feels like a local gem, with great atmosphere and a casual but warm-​seeming crowd. The service was okay, The service is attentive and very personable.
That said, those qualities are enough for me to overlook some not-​as-​stellar things. I didn’t like the flavor combination of the tomato soup. There weren’t any real overarching element to bring the ingredients together.
I also tried the CRABbread pizza, and though the crust was amazing, the crab meat (and whatever other ingredients were on that pizza) were lost among a mass of very oily onions.
The wine is very reasonably priced here… you can get bottles for $ 15.
So if Taps, you can dial back the oil, and let your super fresh ingredients shine through more on their own, this would definitely be five stars in my book.

I’d read the reviews on Taps Signature Cuisine & Bar when searching for sports bars a while back but opted for another choice at that time. This past Friday evening my wife and I decided to give Taps a try.
Our observation of the establishment is that they’re trying to figure out their identity. They don’t seem to know if they want to be a sports bar, or perhaps a wine bar (?) by all the wine bottles on display or maybe a restaurant. I’d probably gather not the last as the menu is sparse. Regardless of the identity crisis or menu choices, it’s hard to rate the food if they don’t have any!
We decided to order the chicken wings and a crab dip for starters. We determine any other food choices might happen after we got through the appetizers. The waitress returned after a short while to inform us they were all out of the crab dip. I asked to look over the menu once again but we ultimately decided to double-​up the wing order with a variation on spice, sauce, etc. for part deux.
It took a good 30-​minutes and my second Corona before the waitress returned to tell me she had more bad news; they were completely out of wings. Huh? She said they would comp us some other appetizer, one we didn’t ask for, as an apology I guess. Perhaps out of embarrassment for her place of employment she disappeared not to return until she had said dish. I asked for our check, paid and we left without tasting the replacement-​food.
I can see running out of a menu item but if bar food is your fare you should probably have plenty of that on hand. There was an art show/​event going on that weekend so maybe it put a dent into their food supply but you would think they’d have prepared if that’s what happened. And as far as how to handle this situation so a customer doesn’t write a scathing review in Unilocal,I might have considered comp’ing those two Carona’s before self-​selecting a food alternative. My wife is a bartender and server at times and when I asked her how she might have handled that situation she said exactly that two free beers was a reasonable apology for the time wasted and our unfulfilled hunger. I’d have at least considered coming back in the future and not writing this review.
Do what we did and go to Blu Sushi down the street. They have a new owner and they’re working hard for your dollars. Oh yeah, and they have food. So you be the judge but I’m playing «taps» to Taps Signature Cuisine & Bar.
