Pretty sure there aren't too many calories in a 'Raper.

Watch the lag bolts sticking out on the new bouys. They got my gel.

They admitted they were installed wrong and said don't worry we'll pay for your repairs then never returned my repeated calls. :fingers:

I was going to start a thread about that place . We went Tuesday and probably not again until we forget how bad that place is . The people who work there were nice and the blonde bartender is definite something to look at but that's where it ends . Besides the 2 new 12 dollar fans they spend less than zero dollars on that place . Trying to eat there is like sitting in skid row .Flys are all over your food . I imagine it's what a strip club would feel like with the lights on ! ( cleanliness that is ) . Serious question here . Does az have a health code department ? Maybe 1 of the 10 locals sitting there right now could wipe down a table with a CLEAN RAG in exchange for a free beer . God knows nobody else has in a long time . Sad very sad

Yes the guy who runs it is named Carl at the la paz county health dept. in Parker. He'll fill you in on any restaurant in the area.

I called him to ask about a couple places we eat at up by the dam and he gave our places decent marks. He'd welcome a call if you see or have a problem with a place.

You might be on to something :)

Its a booze, fun and atmosphere place. The fact they try to have food is just coincidental

My family's favorite spot. Normally get breakfast and lunch there. Can't say anyone has been sick from the food; plenty of hangovers though.

Now want a skier sandwich.

Enjoy that salad.:D

chicken sandwich, and it was awesome.

Iced Teas... My life sucks..

Lol, passed you going south as you were pulling up

If your in town all weekend stop by I'd like to meet ya!

Why? That place is garbage! :puke:

Just because you have a barstool at foxes that is molded to the shape of your ass doesn't mean everywhere else sucks.. LOL

Man you couldn't be more wrong on that. They are dumping money into it hand over fist right now. They just replaced all the bouies on the inside and outside of the finger dock (all brand new). They are going to do the rest of the bouies on the main bar shortly. They just installed blue LED lights under the finger dock (pretty cool at night), they just bought Badenoch's grills and are putting them in the kitchen if they haven't already. They just removed all the carpet on the finger dock, looks like they are going to be putting new carpet down shortly..

It is impossible to do the maintenance and repairs mid summer because the place is always packed. As far as flies go, it has been a bad year everywhere. My house in havasu we had to put fly strips in just to try and catch what we could.. Any place on the water is going to have bug problems (especially roaches) I don't care if you bombed the place 100 times they'll be back in hours.

Name a place on the water where you haven't seen a roach cruise the bar.. LOL

I have no issues when I go there. Maybe they are trying to subtly tell you something ;)

I never have any issues as well..

My favorite place for breakfast. Fuck the haters!! :finger

Breakfast will be even better with the new grills.

Ha here's the new buoys that chunked out my gel. Nice work seating the lags .

Whatever, $300 for Arron's guy to fix it. I guess that enough to say fuck off to someone thats been going there for 31 years

Funny thing is i didn't complain just let them know the new buoys needed to be tighten up or more boats were going to get whacked.

The guy supervising over heard and took pictures and admitted fault and both him and the lady taking food orders said don't worry the owner will take care of the damages and asked for my information . I was actually surprised by their hospitality but now not so much. I have better things to do than spend time tracking this BS down and I'm sure that is what the owner was counting on.

LOL I'm a contributor not an advertiser. I learned long ago to lower your expectation and try to go with the flow at the river. I think. :D

That doesn't look like one of the new white buoys to me..

Id be interested to know what RD thinks about this..

Here's what I think. I think that doesn't look like a new buoy. I think that if I pulled up to a dock and saw a big bolt hanging out that could hit my boat.. I wouldn't park there. If that was the only spot left, I'd leave and go to another spot.

LOL I'm a contributor not an advertiser. I learned long ago to lower your expectation and try to go with the flow at the river. I think. :D

I'm not sure what you mean by the contributor vs advertiser comment. If the bartender told you they were going to fix your gel (which I can't imagine why a bartender would say that, because that's not their decision) then I'd be very surprised if Jeff and Stephanie didn't honor that (IF THE STAFF ACTUALLY SAID THAT)..

More so though, Jeff isn't the easiest guy in the world to get a hold of. I have to call him several times to get a hold of him, and if I don't it takes awhile for him to call me back..

They have a sign that says park at your own risk.
