My first trip to this place was let's say not great. I didn't care for the beer that was suggested for me, I got yelled at by a bar back for standing in a restricted area, and the scene just didn't seem to fit my mood at the time.
However, we are regulars of the West 25th scene so I figured I would give it another shot. Every time since and there have been many this place has grown on me. The beers I have tried since are all good and the scene has kicked up a notch.
The food does not come highly recommended to me by people's whose opinions I value so I have never tried it, but if you're on a date and need to kick start the interaction and both parties like beer I can say without question get a beer sampler or two.
I really like this place I do have other W25 staples that it will be difficult for this place to unseed but it is good to mix this one in every so often.
