I don't think Slate is that much fun. It's one of those places where's there nothing terrible about…read moreit, but it doesn't really have its own unique identity. I can't really tell if it's supposed to be a pool hall, an arcade, a sports bar, etc. It feels like it takes a little bit of all those things, but stops short of being any of those things. I'm also not really impressed with their selection of drinks, especially considering the nearby bars that it competes with. All-in-all, I don't hate Slate, but I just can't really find a good reason to go there.

We both got salmon and the Whipped ricotta appetizer. The ricotta was delicious and I loved that it came with mint leaves. It was delicious and we scarfed that down with our beers. I had Marigold Hefe isen, which was DELICIOUS. So I had 2. They had a fantastic wine list and I was going to get a white wine from Chile but at $14, I didn't want to blow my dates wallet out. So instead I had the 2 beers. Let's talk about our delicious salmon. It was cooked perfect and served w cut asparagus on a bed of buttery orzo. I ate every little asparagus piece, it was so good and lemon butter flavored. The salmon was a lightly grilled piece of heaven. A big piece. I was a little miffed it had no lemon slice but the entire salmon was basted or braised with a lemon sauce. Every bite was divinely lemon. It was probably the best salmon I've ever had. Such a lovely visit. Nice interior and spacious and people seemed to be having fun at the bar. This location is a very lovely place!

The wine selection is impressive and they have great cocktails, typically seasonal rotating options as well. I enjoyed the caviar and chips option, flatbread pizza, and brussels. It was martini night which was a great deal on traditional martinis and the cosmo was delicious. The drawback to this location is parking can be difficult, so plan accordingly for your arrival time in case you have to search for street parking.

I wasn't sure what the clientele or atmosphere was going to be like, but it's definitely dive bar vibes and not very many women at all. I was the only woman for the first couple hours and by the time I left I think there were two more. I was worried it would be more of a biker place but it was a pretty "normal" selection of men lol. Bartenders were friendly, but note that they don't serve food there. It was a little bit tight in some areas and I just had to make sure I wasn't going to hit somebody while I was playing and sometimes I had to move tables and chairs around too. Overall it wasn't super intimidating for someone who is not serious about playing pool, but it was a fun way to spend a Friday night!

(I probably spelled that wrong ) She took care of us, laughed with us, and kept the drinks coming. She really turned an ordinary and boring Tuesday into one of my best nights in this city. The music was a great mix of old school millennial classics such as T-Pain and even Eminem. But also played new songs. The place was kind of empty but that was expected. There were about 20-25 people there all together. Everyone was so nice and having a good time. There's pool tables, beer pong tables, and different areas to hang out. We stayed until 2am and the security even made sure to wish us a safe ride home. Everyone was welcoming and attentive.

I feel like after 10 pm, it does get livelier and would be a good time if we ended up staying. I will definitely come back and see how it is later in the night. The bartenders were nice, and we had no problems with the bouncer at all.
