| - Had a decent, though inexplicably expensive, lunch at Rebol (pronounced like "rebel") during the Republican National Convention. Despite the heat and humidity, the outdoor seating provided prime placement to take in reporters, conventioneers, and protesters alike. I had the Bulgogi Steak and a box of water. The meat had a hint of seasoning to it but was rubbery and tough to chew--not something I would recommend to others. The brown rice and curried papaya slaw were filing additions, and I really liked the crispy wontons and warm corn tortillas.
A pager system lets you know when to pick up your food and helps relieve congestion around the pick-up window. I do wish I had looked at my check a little closer, though, because, after tip, my order came to $16. If the website is accurate that the Bulgogi Steak is $8.50, the lesson learned is to steer clear of those boxes of water. Overall, despite the pricing and disappointment on the food side, the location pushes Rebol up to three stars.
(And since Yelp is now featuring Pokestops, dining at Rebol should put you within range of three Pokestops, as part of the 10 Pokestops and 1 gym in the immediate Public Square area. Happy hunting!)
