| - great food! had a really good grilled cheese sandwich and my wife had the vegetarian chili. plenty of parking, but in a shitty part of town. it's in "transition" - and I'd have to guess that means they are only being broken into 4x a week instead of 5x a week. one TV, and a very small bar. the restaurant is actually an old house that has been converted into a restaurant, so it's a bit tight as they tried to put a lot of tables in there - still, not that bad. but good luck getting a place at the bar. lots of outside seating too, but it's right on 7th st, so there's a lot of traffic and nothing to look at unless you like staring at vacant lots, shopping cars and i'm sure if you look hard enough hypodermic needles.
great beer selection and great prices - very impressive. so definitely a plus for that. one thing that bummed me out was not having a soda dispenser - i asked for a club soda and they brought me a bottle of it. that sort of tilted me for some reason. at least they had it i guess. the clientele...well, let's just say if you were looking to form a softball team, this is not the place. if you were looking to form a communist rally - perfect! lot's of tattoos and stupid earrings. people trying a bit too hard to be their version of cool.
it's not really close to our house, but i can see us heading back there, my wife really enjoyed the food and the impressive beer selection might make it worth the journey. viva la revolution! or whatever that phrase is.
