On The Rocks

It’s no longer here. We drove over here purposely for the karaōke only to find they have gone out of business. Too bad sounded like a fun place.

Awesome place and very friendly environment definitely worth checking out for your self! =)

Total dive bar and no food like our groupon said but the bartender was nice and tried to make it up to us. We told him he didn’t need to because the drinks are so cheap. Alas, I’m a lightweight so there’s no way I was drinking $ 40 worth. I tried ordering the expensive stuff just to try to use up my money. Saw ten cane rum, asked for a shot. It had been watered down with water that tastes just out of the hose. When I mentioned this, he checked and threw out he bottle. I liked the integrity. Hung out for a couple of hours, tried a few drinks, then asked for the check. He was so sweet he offered us the groupon balance in cash. We left it as a tip because he really did try. Everyone else looked like they were having a good time on heir way to being drunk, but that’s just not my scene. I think if it was, I’d be very happy here. There’s a pool table, dice, and a guy standing in front of a laptop and speakers (DJ?) on weekend nights.

Nice little neighborhood «dive bar». Friendly people, pool, darts, karaōke on Tuesdays… bartender usually brings her Nintendo Wii on Sundays. Nice place to chill.

I was planning a visit (from Arizona) to see my brother who lives in Citrus Heights and I wanted to go to a karaōke bar. I found On The Rocks on Unilocal and the reviews didn’t disappoint!
We met a bunch of old friends here Friday, October 12. Jeremy was a great bartender, the beers were cheap & cold! Gary (karaōke host) kept the songs loud & moving right along while also singing some awesome backup! We got there at 9pm, met a few locals, everybody was very friendly. By the time we left at 2am we were all the best of friends! A great mix of people! If a loud, fun night is what you want then this is the place!

I love this little bar. Pool, darts, karaōke, super cool crowd, laid back but fun, great inexpensive drinks, you can’t go wrong here for a good time any night of the week!!!
I took one star away because it was hotter than hell in there last time I went.

If you’re looking for a local neighborhood bar, this is the place. Good people, good times, great location. Karaōke, darts, pool, and pinball? It’s pretty much exactly what you’re looking for if your into a rad little dive spot. Not only that, the bartenders are heavy handed, so their drinks are worth the price.

So we figured it has been awhile since we visited On The Rocks. use to be a favorite of ours. we show up at 2PM, not open, show up at 3 PM, not open, show up at 315 PM, hey our favorite bartender is there opening the door, so in we go to.
«WE ARE NOT OPEN, YOU WILL HAVE TO COME BACK IN 5 TO 15 MINUTES». Oh, OK, what we can’t sit down? Not, hey guys, how ya doin, I am sorry I am running a bit late… etc. just pretty much a «go fuck yourself I don’t want to be here and don’t care if you ever come back» attitude. so guess what. we won’t be back.
Shakers across the street was glad to take my money.

A friend of mine took me here this past weekend. I was pretty apprehensive to say the least at first appearances. This place is the pure definition of a dive bar! And the patrons help to keep that label alive and well. Not really any pretentious «bro’s» or other such people to ruin a good time here. The crowd is pretty diverse yet they all had one thing in common. Everyone was there to just have a good time. I didn’t see any drama or anything else to derail the night. Thumbs up there!
The bartender, Tiffany, is a total sweetheart and took good care of us during our time here. Her service and personality were noteworthy for sure. The drink specials they were doing Saturday night were good too. Pinnacle vodka was on special and any Pinnacle mixed drink was $ 3 if I remember correctly. Tiffany was spot on with suggestions of different/​unique drinks for the ladies in my party.
This isn’t the place to take someone who needs to be impressed. But if you have friends who just want to have a good time and not worry about anything then it’s a safe bet that On The Rocks will fit the bill nicely. Low key dive bar with fair prices and good service.

Dive bars have always acted as a sort of Lithmus Test for me when getting to know a neighborhood. This one was no different.
I have to admit, I used to turn my nose up at the mention of Citrus Heights but as luck would have it I ended up living here… and dare I say… liking it.
Although you will see mullets, missing teeth, and the occasional bucket of KFC kicking around the joint, the people are absolutely a blast to be with. Just check your attitude at the door and you will be sure to have a good time.
The drinks aren’t the strongest in the world, but they come pretty cheap and grabbing a couple of them to get you to that happy place usually doesn’t pose a challenge.
Did I mention they have Karaōke? Oh yeah, you definitely know where I’m headed:]

My husband and I went to this place with friends and were iffy from the moment we pulled into the parking lot. 10 minutes into being here, we decided we wanted out! This place was miserable! I honestly cannot believe the great reviews! If you’re not a regular here, you get stared at the entire time and treated like trash. The people here are definitely of no class, yet seem to think they are better than you from the moment you walk in the door. We were treated to snide remarks and titters as we walked out the door… if you have any bit of class or self respect, you’re far too good for this joint!

On The Rocks was a great find! I went twice, both on a Wednesday and a Friday. Both nights were fun. As expected the Wednesday night crowd was kind of small, but there was great energy and everyone was welcoming and really friendly. Friday night was a lot of fun, lots of people and the karaōke is good with tons of song choices. I do wish they had a larger selection of beer on tap, they only offer Bud, but bottle prices are very good, with Friday night happy hour prices all night long! That’s Blue Moon for $ 3.75, and you just cannot beat that! Plus, $ 2.00 Jello shots! The owner, bartenders and bouncers are all very cool. I will definitey go back! (4 stars, only because they don’t have Blue Moon on tap. Otherwise, 5 stars!)

On The Rocks is a good place to go if you don’t want to wait forever for an overpriced, watered down drink. There is no shortage to fun when you come to On The Rocks, especially since the bartenders here have a heavy hand and a small price tag.
Play a game of pool, sing a song, staple a dollar to the wall and get drunk! What more can you ask for?
