Big Game Restaurant & Lounge

This place just opened up about 2 weeks ago off of 16th and Wazee. They label themselves as a higher end sports bar. We went to go check out their scene and more specifically happy hour scene. The food was good but not amazing the beers cheap at $3/pint but not a great selection. The TVs inside were huge and plenty but nothing outside as we ate and drank. The patio scene is weak with only two chairs per table and no extra chairs available. For happy hour you had to be seated for the patio which makes for an awkward time if you have a group of 5. The Thai mussels were outstanding and the flat bread aka thin crust mini pizzas were nothing special. The california rolls were average and the sliders were pretty tasty. I gotta say for a high-end restaurant they claim the bathrooms suck. Nothing is automated so you have to manually flush which means no flushing for me. On a scale from 1 to 5 with 5 being the highest I rate their service a 2 and barely a 2. New or not it wasn't very busy and for being the largest group there was no sense of urgency to take care of us. I think the fastest thing that came was the check. The beers and food were slow and they messed up our tab. I'll give this place another shot when it's time to watch some sports but for now I'll stick to the usual suspects that do a great happy hour.
