Sadly, I've been disappointed here on my four visits since moving to Aurora a few months ago. While it's conveniently close, adequate parking, decent beer and wine list, clean and neat:
1) the staff seems tired, as though they've given up inside, at least they're nice and they smile at me (or grimace, I can't detect the difference actually).
2) the food couldn't be more uninspiring. If you've ever been to Cleats you know what I mean. A $12 hamburger should cause me to utter at least one "mmmm" when I bite into it. If the plates and server uniforms bore the Classic Sysco label we could argue whether it's iconic or just truth in advertising. 'Classic' being Sysco's budget line of frozen foods, not to be confused with the Imperial and Supreme grade line of product offerings. I generously offer three stars for consistent mediocre food and service. Sure, I'll still stop by for a beer or three, (but I'll bring food from the grocery store deli across the parking lot.)
