  • Being in Durant's reminds me of being a bit actor in a movie remake of some 1950s cult classic. Like oceans 11. The original had Sinatra and Martin and Davis, Jr and Bishop. The remake had Clooney and Pitt and Damon and Garcia. And although the 2001 version was pretty good, maybe even VERY good, something about it seems disingenuous. But when we talk about the cool-factor of the 1960s "11", there is no denying that the film makes you feel like you're walking around like your number one. Well, translate that into this dusty steak joint, that has somehow passed its prime and now seems like a poor remake of its former (classic) self. Their food has sadly nose-dived into average, while their prices have sharply risen like a Vegas hotel room on a holiday weekend. I only feel marginally dapper drinking in here. Sure the bartenders are cool and quite aware, but the setting is dank and I feel like I'm drinking in an 80s mob bar that is trying to thematically play homage to a 20s speakeasy. Where once THIS was the steakhouse that others (even chains -- heya Bucco di Beppo) tried to emulate, everything just seems to have spindled out of order. Its trying hard to work, but it just doesn't. I'm also aware that they are under new mgmt and have changed some staples on the menu. We shall see if they will return. For now, I'm just going to stick to drinking the occasional scotch at the bar before moving on to Capital Grille or City Hall.
