Although this place can be crowded, the bartenders are always very quick and good. Everyone makes you feel at home here and I've never encountered any bad attitude. It's in a weird place -- behind a strip mall, but it's right in the heart of things and so easy to get to.
When I go there, I invariably see someone I know.. It's a great combo between a neighborhood bar and a place to go in the evening before or after dinner.
Happy hour is always hopping, especially on Fridays.
