You will note the high frequency of mullah beards in the restaurant, this place is part of a hipster (not yuppy) based renaissance of eateries around University Circle/Heights area. The menu features non traditional pairings of high quality ingredients on decently to well crafted burgers made from good meat. I had the Parallax which was the most traditional bacon cheese burger on two separate nights. I would have given the place 4.5 stars based on the first experience which was great but am giving this place 3.5 while rounding up to 4 as the burger wasn't as great on second try. The fries are okay but not as sumptuous as the Belgian style ones fried in duck fat. They become gummy and chewy and cold too fast -a result of serving on metal platters that conducts the heat away too fast on the concrete slab bars.
The tap has no less than 6 ironically named IPA's, and there are another 5-10 bottles of more beard-produced beer. There is wine and passable (high end grocery roll) sushi as well for those not there on massive munchies (it's next to several colleges). There are screens on the wall devoted to live games, one to Cartoon Network, and a last one to extreme monster truck/X sports. They might make their own pickles. Basically refugees from Brooklyn.
The service is cordial but the food and drinks come a little bit slow. I do appreciate the hirsute server giving me a tasting of a special white IPA (aren't they all).
Finally, very kid friendly.
