    This bar is always crowded, in a good way. Filled with hipsters and industry folk alike. Slightly pricey compared to the other bars in the area, but worth it for the ambiance.

    Awesome hipster bar with great beers on tap, burlesque photos hanging on the walls, and old movies on the tvs. Big outdoor patio and gets packed on the weekends!

    I recommend the southwest quesadilla. Best bar food in town. Beer selection is lacking, but Jesse will make you an awesome cocktail.

    It's a small place, so it gets crowded quickly, but there's plenty of outdoor seating. They also have a varied menu and the drinks aren't super expensive!

    I sat down at the bar for the first time and within ten minutes was given a free shot of sambuca. So that's pretty cool.

    Beware that they charge for each and every soft drink and water requested as an individual drink. It can get pricey compared to other places where you are charged once for a soft drink or nothing for

    The servers and bartenders, right off the bat were very snobby. Third time here, and unfortunately it's like that every time. Apparently if you're not 25 you're not welcomed here.

    Really great atmosphere, kinda swanky, but with surprisingly affordable drinks. All the food we've tried has been very good too!

    The pot stickers are always a late night favorite of mine. Highly recommend them along with anything else on their menu!

    I would call it vintage. Good beer but service is kinda slow. But hey I can have my dog with me, and they have a bowl of water for her.
