| - This place is huge--I didn't even realize until after finishing my meal that there's an extra dining room behind the restrooms! Their claim to fame is that they have 100 beers on tap--and amazingly, they also have wine on tap--weird. I have to admit, I wondered a bit as I ordered my beer just how many weeks it had been since the last time someone ordered this variety--perhaps one of the problems of having so many on tap--some are bound to go mostly un-drunk. That said, the beer tasted mostly okay, although it did smell pretty weird. Hmm.
Honestly, the menu is what drew me in for lunch in the first place--lots of the dishes looked creative and interesting (curried cauliflower, shrimp banh mi tacos, etc.). Imagine my disappointment when I realized that the food was actually...bland. The pulled pork nachos were perfectly fine, except they had almost no flavor or spice. They really needed some good salsa and guacamole on top--and no, the Tabasco sauce they handed me when I asked didn't help much. The pork egg rolls were edible, but nothing I'd order again. Same for the General Tso's cauliflower--basically just fried bar food.
Anyway, to sum it up, this place is _fine_ and the food is okay, but it's certainly not worth what they're charging for it, and I wouldn't _choose_ to eat it. It'll fill you up in a hurry if you're hungry, but I can't imagine actually wanting to seek it out.
PS: their "small" plates are actually enough to feed at least two people!
