    Come on guys. Moist brisket shouldn't be a giant vain of fat. I didn't discover this until I unpacked my order at home. You guys can do better, but you've got to choose to do good. My ribs and turkey were good.

    Always an amazing time! Challenge Entertainment at Bar Mueller never disappoints. The trivia is fun, well-run, and keeps everyone engaged all night long. The hosts are energetic and make the experience even better. It’s the perfect way to spend an evening with friends β€” great drinks, great crowd, and always lots of laughs. Highly recommend!
