This is a fun little neighborhood bar, with more than 10 TVs for your favorite sports games, two dart electronic dart boards, one pool table, and a couple of video arcade games.

There s a small stage for music or a DJ. They don t have table service. You have to order you food at the bar, but they will bring it to your table when it s ready. The only problem with this, is sometimes there is no bartender available if you are looking to quench your thirst.

They have about 6 beers on tap.

Guess who the chef in the kitchen is! None other than Kris Martinez from the infamous Rocker Dogz: Gourmet Hot Dog stand of yester year.

His menu here ROCKS, and some of it is inspired by his former creations. For example, check out the Bella Bleu Burger, based on his Bella Blue hot dog from years ago. Gorgonzola bleu cheese, applewood smoked bacon, mustard, and a red wine onion reduction sauce. You just don t find food of this quality and flavor in establishments like this. Come here for the food and enjoy the beer and games as a bonus. But again, Kris knocks the food out of the ballpark here.

Another favorite of mine is a holdover from his way back days are the Tricked Out Tator Tots. You have GOT to experience these before you die! They are tator tots drizzled with a magically flavored sriracha mayo, Parmesan cheese and secret herbs and spices.

Kris also contributed to the success of the DogFather and another restaurant in San Antonio for some time. You have to follow this dude around town and enjoy his creative culinary creations. He is an AWESOME chef - and I mean that - he is a CHEF!

Mainly burgers at the Evil Olive that range between $8 and $10 but they have a few appetizers as well.

If Kris ever brings the hot dogs back again, you MUST try the Thai Kickboxer that was my favorite from back in the day. But it has been many years since I had one.

Bottom line Evil Olive is a great place to have fun but Chef Kris is what makes it THE place to go to!
