A historic pool turned social club, Swim Club is refreshingly fun. Indulge in the age-old adage: eat, drink, and be Downright merry. Grab a bite in the sunken dining room with submarine views of the adjacent pool, sip a refreshing cocktail on your poolside lounger, soak in the sun on The Lawn, and when the good-hearted and good-timing leaves you thirsty for more, enjoy late-night tunes in Randy’s Rodeo Room.

Would give zero. Service at first was fine. Table to our left arrived 30 minutes after us and had food within 40 minutes. We still were waiting for our second round. Upon realizing we had been there almost 50 minutes past ordering the neighboring table waived down the manager over after we finally got upset and were planning to do so also and once the manager was aware he brought the second round. However, both drinks were incorrect but at least he put a shot of who knows what in one of them. By the time we had our food it was basically an hour and a half after arriving. Both incorrect drinks were on the bill not that it was a matter of paying but it was lazy. The manager didn’t even put in the drinks correct. No apology was given for the over an hour wait on food in fact it wasn’t even addressed. The food was great but the service was horrible . Was easily prepared to drop whatever due to the hype but honestly it was some of the worst customer service I’ve ever had. It doesn’t take someone complaining to have to address the fact that you messed up. And bringing random drinks that are incorrect and charging is quite frankly comical. Seems like it could be a good spot but truly would’ve rather gone to chilis.

Walked in at lunch time on a Saturday and the place was empty. Staff was rude, tables were filthy, so we left before even ordering.
