    I featured their Warm Goat Cheese Salad in my Dallas Salad Quest for its huge gob of panko goat cheese— http://bit.ly/130C0NU. My ahi tuna salad-loving friends rave about their Seared Rare Tuna Salad.

    Awesome place to come hang w/friends to eat and pre-drink on wkends. Stays pretty mellow until about 10-ish...then they crank up the music. Can usually find street parking if early enough.

    The bloody mary served here is salty as sin, just spicy enough and as you would hope, topped with a strong pour from the vodka bottle.

    Start with the Maredsous red ale, a cheese plate with fried goat cheese, cotswold, etc., and a cup of beef stew. It's enough to fill you up.

    Stiff drinks if you get as lucky as me! The bartenders here are pleasers! Order the tuna salad if you are doing more than drinking.

    Get a firewood. Think of a Irish carbomb but with woodchuck and fireball. Ask for Josh he loves making these.

    They have been doing acoustic guitar lately on Wednesdays (it's June 4, 2014), and it's SO downbeat and SO slow. I can not recommend.

    The food is good but expensive, take care to not sit under a speaker, the music is loud and can get obnoxious over time.

    Leave while you still can. Or wait an hour and have the bouncers randomly kick you out before you pay your tab. Your choice.

    The veggie burger here is subpar. If you want a good one nearby go to the old monk...or anywhere else really
