As far as local neighborhood bars go, Remedy's is my spot. It does not craft a truly unique cocktail or offer a wide selection of specialty beers, but it is the bar everyone in the group could find refuge in.
The food is solid. The seared ahi salad is a light fare for those who are not too hungry. The chicken sandwich with avocado and bacon was the surprise hit. It is a filling sandwich that does not leave you feeling sick. The grilled chicken is a nice option in a world where frying things up is the easy and quick solution. The warm pretzels are too heavily salted and the sauces are nothing special. Save room for the bread pudding, because it is worth it. For less than $5, this giant slab of baked custard goodness is enough to share.
The surprise of the night was how cheap the martinis are. A lemon drop was $7 and an espresso was only $6. They did not taste like rubbing alcohol, so that only added to the astonishment.
