| - Solid food at a fair price. In some ways it's just glorified bar food (burgers, sandwiches, etc) with a few entrees to choose from (salmon, steak). I had the pork & chimichurri sandwich, which was delicious as usual. I appreciate the rice & black beans on the side - a nice change over the usual french fries. I also had a mojito, which was decent, but probably not worth the price. $8 works upstairs, but seems a bit overpriced for this space.
The only low point of the visit was the service. We wandered in after a show at the Comedy Club on State, about 15 minutes before the posted closing time. The bartender informed us they were just about to close. We said we'd be fast, and so we were seated at a table. The waiter came over and immediately says, "Do you know what you want?", before we had even been handed menus. Tacky. The service didn't improve from there (slow, inattentive, etc).
I don't know that I would bring guests here looking for an amazing dinner experience, but for a quick burger or sandwich, it's one of the better places in town, and definitely a few notches above standard pub fare.
