Mason Dixon:
If your idea of southern hospitality involves paying a hipster in slouch boots $5 to get you a Lone Star, then you’ll feel right at home at Mason Dixon. Brought to you by the owners of Fat Baby and Spitzer’s Corner, this southern-style saloon really puts the honky back in honky tonk. Plop down at the bar and pull on a Busch Light, while stuffing your face with southern fare from their “vittles” list with faves like buttermilk chicken wings ($9.95) and farm house cheddar cheese grits ($5.95). Afterwards, join the ranks of wastoids willing to pay $10 for a go on the mechanical bull ($5 during off-peak days/hours). We’d say “Don’t be ignorant, Bud,” but what the hell—giddy up, suckas!
I went to this place Friday night with about 40 friends to celebrate a friend's safe arrival back from Iraq... we picked Mason Dixon because we thought it would be fun and cheesy because of the mechanical-bull/ whiskey selection... but our night was ruined by the so called "DJ" who was "spinning" crappy music off of his iPod... (last time I checked having an iPod does not make you a DJ) not only were his song choices deplorable, but so was his attitude... I was standing with a group of friends near the "DJ booth" and instead of politely asking us to move he yelled "Move! I'm the DJ" and proceeded to kick me and rough up one of my friends ...power trip/ roid rage? ...either way it was bad for business because we all left and all that remained were fat ugly chicks who loved showing off their cracks and muffin tops on the mechanical-bull... so if thats what you're into then this is the place for you... but if you happen to have half a brain you should pick another place

Have you boys ever been South of the Mason Dixon?? Hop in the Hipster Mobile and take note of some true Southern Hospitality and get a clue.. This place sucks, foods gross, staff is to cool for school and you totally ripped off the Saddle Ranch in every category.. Menu, Bull Ring, Decor, Mech Bull, ect... U could have at least opened before the other place in NYC with a bull.... Good try Jersey Boys...Not really..
