    There comes a time in life when fate chooses your path and on the eve of December 29, 2010, fate chose for me to finish a goal that I started just 30 days ago. The first-ever Gambit Bar Stampede. To enter for a grand prize of nearly $1000 worth of bar tabs around the city I had to go to at least 25 of the 42 participating businesses. Seems like an easy task in theory but, Sometimes your friends don't want to go to a dodgy bar so you can get a precious sticker to mark your accomplishments. Fights were fought, friendships were squandered. The end was nearing and to no choice but my own I knew it was time for me to go rogue. December 29, 2010, 8:45 pm - I sit counting my stickers on my crumpled official game map that I have carried in my wallet for nearly a month getting stickers for each place I visited. I counted and recounted again, I was missing one precious sticker to qualify and time was running out. Out of the few opportunities I had left I decided a swoop and scoop method would be best. My finger landed on 22nd Street bar, after a quick Google search I decided this would be a fast win. Not far, guaranteed parking and cheap drinks. Ten minutes later me and my co-pilot pulled into one of many parking spots across the street from the bar. With a deep breath we hesitently opened the door to 22nd street bar. This was it, no turning back now. What is this, I see? People...plenty of people from all walks of life lining the entire bar cheering and living the good life. How unexpected! A smile sprawled across my face as we occupied the last two seats in the bar. It was clear, this was a regular bar environment. In fact, I think we were the only two "newbies" on this December night No one seemed to mind our intruding, actually they did not even realize we were there until ten minutes later. We didn't mind as they were quite entertaining and were enjoying the show. Someone from our side of the bar yelled to the "bartender", "Ya got new customah's!" The bartender threw her hands in the air and exclaimed "OH, LOOK AT THIS!" I was frightened, but remained calm and smiled to show I was not frustrated with the nonchalant attitude that came with the place. I had an inkling that she had been drinking, which made me switch from a gin and tonic to a drink that did not have to be mixed. I was a more stubborn, "I don't drink beer" person back then so I ordered what someone has never dared to order at 22nd street bar. A chardonnay. You heard me. Out of panic I ordered a damn chardonnay because only the classiest bitches can do that. The bartender then stared at the hard liquor bottles for a solid five minutes (I timed it). Wanting to be of help, I mentioned that the wine might be in the cooler. She laughed so hard I think she might have peed a little bit. She came out from the back and poured my glass of wine to the brim, like a martini. Alright then, Success! I took a few sips and she topped me off without even second guessing her action. At that exact moment, I knew I was never leaving. An hour later and still only one "glass" in (very possible a bottle, but couldn't really keep track) Someone shouted "shots!" from across the bar and boom, Jaeger shots for all. Now, Jaeger is not my drink of choice, but it was that night. There is a cool digital jute box and I was voted to be DJ for the night. Someone randomly handed me a five dollar bill and told me, "go play shit" You don't have to tell me twice. I picked a few of the top 40 hits, a few oldies and wahlah, Dance party 2010 is launched. While I was still sober enough I got my weathered bar stampede map out from my wallet to receive my last sticker. I showed it to the bartender and It was like showing her a 1834 map that lead to pirate's treasure. She took it from my hands and said, "Da Fuq is this?" It was clear the bar stampede did not bring any new customers and I was the first one that traveled to these parts. I explained that I needed a sticker and this completely blew her mind. Thankfully, she had a stroke of genius and remembered her manager mentioning something about it a month or so ago. Phew! with my last sticker in tact I thanked them for the most spontaneous, fun and hysterical night of my life. I have since returned, but of course it does not have the same recipe of magic in the air so all I have left are memories and this story. You have my heart 22nd street, you have my heart. PS. I won the bar stampede.

    The only reason why I come here is for the steak on Thursdays. Rob, the chef, does a really good job at grilling and he usually keeps us entertained with his conversational material. If Rob had his own restaurant, this rating would definitely be higher.

    $10 steak Thursdays! Good, better than most places I have been to. However, this past Thursday, the price of the steak went up to $13. Still cheap and good but took me by surprise. Also heard from the guy cooking the steak there is a special on Wednesday too for $2 burgers? Don't know if it is true but will go check it out on a Wednesday eventually!

    This is a perfect example of a Metry dive bar. A friend invited me to this bar one night for a drink. Little did I know I was in for some serious culture shock. As my GPS directed me to this residential area, I was concerned that I may be in the wrong place. I saw the sign and knew I wasn't, so I headed for the door, or what I thought was the door. I am used to businesses having an entrance in the front center. This entrance was on the side, as if I were entering a house. My drinking buddy was already at the bar, so I pulled up a stool and ordered an Abita. The beer was cold and only $3.25. The bartender was very friendly. i attributed this to the fact that she told me she had been drinking since two. Normally I frown upon drinking and working, but it worked for her. This bar has karaoke, but didn't have any Lil Wayne, B.G. or Juvenile. Because the Nola rap selection was lacking, i was unable to impress the crowd with my amazing rap skills. They did have P-Control by Prince, but even after listening to his version, I wasn't drunk enough to attempt it. Oh well, there is always next time. This bar had some awesome things going for it. Here are some examples: Behind the bar was a woman with a flat iron straightening her hair. An older gentleman with an amazing mullet. The bartender making it rain with napkins, then bending at the waist to pick them up all while shaking her moneymaker. A very cool conversation with a singer about the origins of the Edmund Fitzgerald melody. I want to rate this bar higher because of the awesome things going on, but I just cant. While I enjoyed it, this isn't the area I would normally go out.

    Sure, it's a divey bar, and honestly there's really no reason to go here considering all of your other options, but this place has two redeeming qualities. The first thing that saves this place is the karaoke. Sure, the sound system kind of sucks, but it's something to do when you are in the mood for something a little different. The second thing is, on Thursdays, you can get a huge steak and mashed potatoes and corn for $10. You can't beat that! They also offer chicken, salmon, and tuna, if red meat isn't your thang. Oh! And the bathrooms are always clean. Huzzah!

    Wonderful atmosphere, great friends, karaoke on Friday & Saturday night. I have been going to the spot for almost 15 years. It's a great spot to just chill and relax on a night after work. Shoot a little pool or play some video poker. Boiled seafood on Fridays all set the ambiance for a great place to spend time.

    The only reason I ever go here is for the Thursday and Sunday steak nights. You HAVE to get here early as they sell out of steaks FAST!!! They also have a pretty decent menu of other things (like tuna steak). The steaks have always been tasty, fairly priced, and you receive your order pretty quickly. The bartenders have always been nice and efficient. The location is completely strange off in the middle of a combination of residential and weird office spaces not far from Lakeside Mall...only in Metairie could you find a spot like this.

    Southern hospitality at its finest. You get the feeling that they genuinely care about you. Cheap drink prices. The decor is outdated which gives you that "no one will find me here feeling" which is nice when you dont want to be found.;)
