TAB's Bar & Grill

This is a cozy place with trivia night and karaoke. The food is ok. The beer selection ok too. The crowd is fun. There is a fire table and nightly specials. Service was friendly enough.

I came here with my friend who is a regular and good friend of the people I'm this bar - the bartenders are nice - it was karaoke night and that was enjoyable - I went on a Friday night and stayed until 12:15 am- I met up with a fellow friend and we played pool briefly - I got a pineapple cider that was very good - I asked the bartender to make me a White Russian - the vodka was too fiery for me and it was hard for me to finish - the drink formula wasn't as smooth as I usually have it in New York - people at the bar were lively - there is a fireplace on a table inside the bar which was also pleasant - they check ID at this bar and it was a nice vibe as I don't go to bars often. My friend loves this place. I'm glad I went with him.

Go the lunch specials are amazing. The bartender Tamara is the best I would recommend to anyone

Dive bar with all the comfort of home ! Nice staff fun kareoke . I was by myself and never felt uncomfortable or frightened everyone there was quite friendly.

Honestly for what it is, I give this place 5/5! From the outside, it definitely looks like a dive bar, but on the inside it's actually quite nice and has a big patio out back. They have trivia, karaoke, and TVs for sport spectating - all around a good hang! Surprisingly, the karaoke isn't loud and ear piercingly obnoxious - they actually equalize the vocals pretty well so everyone sounds decent and it blends with the backtrack. Would return!

This is more a critique of the karaoke.The KJ either takes bribes or just plugs her friends in. Even when it was HELLA busy, some people went up two or three times before our group was ever handed a mic.

This place is AWESOME! Large indoor fire pit, great food and great people. Over 30 pulltab tanks for people like me who enjoy gambling and a good selection of beer and spirits. Karaoke W- Sun, DJ on Mondays and Tacos n trivia on Tuesdays which is super popular! 2 pool tables, darts, video games, pinball and large outdoor courtyard with cornhole game too. Always have a good time here! Best old fashioned I've ever had too! Staff is friendly and attentive. Surely the #1 bar in Kenmore.

Chill dive bar with excellent karaoke and drinks. There's a fire pit inside that you can sit around which is pretty cool. Bar staff was slammed, but still attentive. Kay was super sweet as it was my first time in, and the other guy bartender made an excellent old fashioned! Will be back :)

It's an okay bar but the white male bartender thinks it's okay to say racial slurs to people. He called someone at the bar the n word. And the female bartender with blonde hair was defending him also being rude previously. I wouldn't waste my time going to this bar. The service is terrible and the bartenders are obviously not fit for customer service by any means.

There is a bartender here (possibly more by now) that gets a lot of heat for making it uncomfortable for troublemakers, but she keeps people safe and if the bar had more paid security it wouldn't put them in that awkward situation where they have to make judgment calls, but despite having to both serve the community food and drinks AND be their own security staff I'd say they are doing awesome. Please show support by being responsible and make it harder for the degenerates to get away with their behavior, that includes bringing drink covers, with the warmer weather there are more cases of drinks getting spiked. Don't let the bartenders be the only force stopping a kidnapping. Although the staff here have protected and prevented violence and kidnappings and would do it all over again without a second thought DO NOT leave that responsibility entirely for them. This staff would be devastated if for one lapse in judgment or weakness that something should happen to their locals. That's far TOO MUCH pressure. For the bartenders who are taking on the challenges that come with the night, keep making it weird and uncomfortable for degenerates. Please pressure the owner to invest in paid security and foil drink covers and moving karaoke away from the register... it's way to loud to order anything. Bartenders shouldn't be constantly on the lookout for suspicious behavior, their job is to provide drinks and a service, but the crew here cares about their customers safety, even at the risk of not being seen in the best light and at the risk of their own safety. No one has the luxury of looking good in a situation that requires them to bear their teeth. I'm giving the staff 5 stars, the owner however, until he supports his staff and cares for their safety, I'm giving the finger.
