| - Good dinner and lunch menu food. I'd call it authentic Irish pub fare, but then again, I've yet to visit the Emerald Isle, so what the hell do I know? Other food, namely from the little side sandwich area, is not so good. The Ri Ra sandwich shop is convenient for most bankers who work uptown, but convenience is all it has going for it. The sandwiches are overpriced, VERY slim on the stuffings (meat and cheese that is...they will give you all the shredded lettuce your little heart desires...yay). And to top it off, their seemingly extensive chalkboard of sandwich fixings is paired down by about 50% on any given day, due to them being out of stuff. Skip the sandwich shop and go to the upstairs balcony for lunch outdoors when it is nice. You can get their sheperds pie (really good) for the price of one of their sandwich combos (really crappy).
Ho-Hum bar experience...during peak times, can get annoyingly hard to get a drink/have a conversation/breath downstairs, but you are in Uptown. What do you expect? It's somewhat better than the offerings of the Epicenter, but not by much.
