The Standard Pour is a great place to come for just a casual drink or a simple dinning experience. The noise level can make it hard to hear sometimes but it’s pathetic and quick service are amazing. It is reasonably priced.

Always a favorite. We've been coming here for years, and the kids specifically ask to eat here several times a year. The comfortable, yet beautiful ambiance, the food, and the service are always on point. We appreciate the wide selection of vegetarian food and their attention to our food allergy modifications.

Service was great, ambience, and facility is really nice. Pizza is lacking, the taste is good, but crust doesn’t hold toppings, is floppy and even a bit soggy

The food was great. The ambience pretty. Only problems was the music was really loud. Could not hear my friend. I asked if they would turn it down a little bit. The waiter said he did but it was still too loud to enjoy lunch with a friend. The waiter claimed it was to get the staff energized. Too bad because it was a nice place but won’t go back due to it being too loud.

I was very impressed with this restaurant! It's more Mexican than TexMex and sometimes I want that change. They give you salsa, spicy Verde sauce AND this bean/beef mixture with chips for FREE!!! With that alone we really didn't need an appetizer. I had the grilled octopus which was cooked perfectly and it came with a spicy potato side item that was really good!
