    They were great abt accommodating our party of 8 when we had two separate reservations of two tables for 4 each. I also felt very well taken care of with a new red meat allergy ( thank you, lone star tick!!) and the server assured me the staff scrubbed the grill so cross contamination did not occur. Thank you, team Sunda!

    Excellent food and great ambience. Service was a little on the slow side particularly since it was not busy. However, we were just hanging out, so it wasn't really an issue. Highly recommended.

    I primarily went for the Xtreme Drag Bingo held every Thursday evening. I made a reservation, but I doubt I couldn't have just walked in at 6 pm. Plenty of open tables and seating at the bar. Once Bingo started, Lark started filling in. Seems to be a popular event with several regulars. High energy and so much fun! I had the Thursday Happy Special margaritas for $10 each. They were reasonably strong but hard to not sip faster! The nachos were a generous portion, but the cheese had the texture of Cheesewiz. Otherwise they were yummy and satisfying. And 25% off on Thursdays!
