    Primarily looking to party I guess. So a dive bar or something wouldn’t be bad.

    Rogels or Pit Room might be your best bet. I think pinkertons is typically closed

    El tiempo is better than ninfas FWIW

    bbq go to pinkertons or truth, pit room is a p distant third to those two IMO

    killens is the best but it’s the furthest drive

    And the ninfas on navigation experience for a first timer puts it over any el tiempo.
