    Pretty much all the bartenders and waiters and waitresses are awesome, so you should talk to them and they will be awesome because they are awesome.

    As the dive bar version of 18th Street Lounge, this spot make for a great neighborhood spot to grab a drink and socialize any day of the week. It also has an outdoor patio in the back, always a plus

    Try the new Spring Salad. Arugula, alfalfa sprouts, beets, pumpkin seeds, and delicious little pieces of goat cheese. Delicious. For real.

    For some unknown reason, they refuse to serve Long Island Iced Teas, regardless of your sobriety or willingness to pay money. And no Absolut. Twilight Zone. Go next door.
