| - I recently moved to the area and pass by this place all the time. I figured I'd give it a try and popped in to check it out for lunch. The bar had a nice mellow atmosphere, with customers bantering to each other about the various sports games on the monitors. The bartender immediately came by to take my drink order and give me a menu when one of the bar guests who probably had some money riding on a college football game started screaming when his team gave up the ball. Along with the other bar goers, the bar tender jeered him in good humor while pouring my Newcastle.
Aces is the kind of place that makes you feel like a regular even if you've never been. Their beer selection is okay, but the quality of the food is outstanding. I ordered a Reuben that totally knocked my socks off, it came out quickly, and could go toe to toe with any NYC deli creation. This was a pleasant experience, between the good food, company, atmosphere, and friendly, not fake-friendly, service. I will definitely be back!
