My girlfriend and I visited here for the first time since a band called the Complaints was playing. The band was great but the service was suspect at best. Don’t like the design of the bar, how the TVs are set up because if you sit at a certain side of the bar can’t see the TV’s. Some of the regulars were kind of loud and obnoxious so over serving is definitely an issue. It’s a dive bar so it’s pretty much what we expected.
This place rocks. It’s completely renovated and the new menu totally works. The stuffies are house made and superb, the grilled cheese with smoked gouda is phenomenal, even the chicken tenders are clearly house breaded and tasty. Friendly service; it’s clear they’re making an effort to hold regular events most nights and keep things fun and fresh. Management is on a great path and I’m excited to see what they come up with next!
The band Classix played last night. Boy, was I aback. The lead guitarist, Richie, was unbelievable. It has been a long time since I have seen someone with such skills. Eddie Van Halen, rest in peace, was an incredible guitarist. I believe Richie is on par with him. WOW, GREAT NIGHT.
Drinks at the bar were cheap and not diluted, and three drinks were $14. I haven't seen these kinds of prices since the 90s. Great night, great place. I shall return for more...
