We ordered the "salad and skewers" and tried 3 different kinds of meat! So yummy. It was a quiet night for the place when we visited so we had over the top service and attention.

FIRE THIS KID. I'm a doctor and I expressed concern for a young man passed out in a bathroom stall…read more The security guard AGGRESSIVELY told me to mind my own business. An African American individual with braids named Mike (he refused to give me his last name). I told him, I was a doctor (I showed him my license) and merely wanted to make sure the young man was not experiencing alcohol poisoning. The security still acted aggressively, grabbed me, and told me "Yeah. I don't care. Mind your own business". Horrible service and complete disregard for the health and safety of their patrons.

My cousin, friend, sister and I were trying to find a place to have some drinks after my cousin's daughter's wedding and someone told us about this place a couple blocks down from our hotel. We walked in the freezing rain/snow and were so happy to get inside this warm bar. The bouncer at the door and the bartender were both very friendly and the service was quick. Prices were reasonable too. We found a table and all were able to have a couple of drinks before they closed. The vibe in this place was fun too!

This is a great venue for artists (although you have to do a lot of your own publicity to bring in an audience, and it's pass the tip jar, so a bit of a risk). Nice artist green room downstairs. Great selections of beer, including a variety of stouts and porters. Everything from 2% milk stout up to 9%! Great bartenders and they also have wine, mixed drinks, non alcoholic etc. Bring your own food! They have good quality merch, hats, shirts, hoodies.

I don't even LIKE sliders, but this put me on! You can have many different smaller burgers for the same stomach space as a regular burger... its genius The ambiance of the bar is something that I love as well - whether you go here for a date or just to chit chat with your homies, the dim lighting makes this feel like a speakeasy, but the server's (who clearly work very hard, so props!) move around with such delicate urgency it makes you feel as though this place is the spot everyone wants to be at.
