Bull's Head Tavern

Best place to get a good, yet reasonably priced steak downtown.
I especially like the atmosphere upstairs, it's a little more quiet for a date night.

The food is great, the vibe is cool.  Nice little place to eat.  Was pretty busy around 5:30pm but I was able to get a seat at the bar.  Staff is friendly and I had a great meal.  I would go back for sure.

Have been here twice in recent months and enjoyed it both times.  First was a Friday night after a hockey game-- it was fairly busy but not to the point we had to wait for a seat.  Had a pretty good steak-- wasn't the best I've had, far from the worst.

Second time was the Saturday of St. Patrick's Day weekend, prior to seeing an act at LaughFest.  It was crazy, but so was the rest of the downtown area.  Waited maybe 15 minutes for a seat, but it seemed as though the entire upper area was reserved for a private event, which would have drastically cut down on available seats/tables.  Regardless, the staff was doing its best to get people seated, so it was fine.  For the life of me I can't remember what I had (NOT due to over-indulgence!) this visit.

Setting is nice, I like the location right on Monroe.  I like the inside of the place too-- welcoming and comfortable.  It can get sort of loud when it's packed but I do think the high ceilings help to damper some of the noise.

The only thing I can really knock them on is with the bar-- either they could add a couple extra single malt options, OR the wait staff needs to bone up on what they have.  Yes, they have Macallan 12, but when I've asked my waiter/waitress what single malt scotch they have available, most of what they list off is blended (Johnny, Cutty, Dewer's, etc).
