"2013-01-22T00:00:00"^^ . "I wish I could give this business a higher rating...I really do. These are good people who are trying to create a cool bar with great food. I want them to succeed. I really do.\n\nBut there are problems. \n\nI ordered a pizza. It was okay. It should have been as good as Settebello or Ferraros for the price, but it wasn't. \nThe crust was waaay too thick. The toppings were good, and fresh, and it was edible. But it should have been GREAT dammit. And it was just okay.\n\nThe other problem is that the food menu is quite limited. All the pizzas are specifically-designed, although the charming woman behind the bar said one could modify them if so desired, even though it wasn't clear that was an option on the menu.\n\nFor example, they have wagyu sliders (good) but no half-pound pub burger. No fries. \nHello? Go to Dispensary. Go to Badger (Rumrunner). Go to any number of neighborhood bars, who have artery-clogging, delicious bar food. \nGo to Fat Choy, which is in a dingy, smoke-filled, casino of the living dead, but has duck bao, potstickers, and a monster fat choy burger!\nEven Naked City Pizza, which is in one of the diviest of dive bars of Vegas, is constantly creating inventive dishes like the Turducken Burger.\n\nIn a crowded, competitive marketplace, a business has to find a way to stand out.\n\nMidtown COULD be the coolest hang in the area. \nBut they have more work to do.\n\nI'm told their official opening is not until Feb. 1. Between now and then, I hope they have some brainstorming sessions centered around the question: How can we be great and different, and stand out from the crowd.\n\nI wish them well. \nBut for my neighborhood pizza outing, I'll be going just down the road to Sicili's on Twain. Tastier and cheaper."^^ . "3"^^ . . "3"^^ . . . "1"^^ . "1"^^ .
