OK, here's my comparison of the two Vigs:
The Vig is better than Uptown when the weather is nice and it's not too hot. There's nothing better than being outside on the back patio listening to live music.
The Vig Uptown will be better in the middle of summer. It's nice and open and airy and will be much cooler.
I was at Uptown yesterday and got a nice seat at the bar and enjoyed watching the Dbacks game on a large flat screen in hi def. I had a $4 margarita that was on happy hour special. It was well made so I had a second and just chilled out watching the game. It was the perfect mid-afternoon break.
I'm not wild about having to valet park but that's the way it goes. I wish that I lived a little closer so that I could get to both of the Vigs more often.
