Love love love local! It is a great spot to hang out with friends and have a few drinks. The bartenders are knowledgable and very friendly. The food has gotten much better within the past couple months so I would consider that when reading other reviews. Although the prices have gone up, they still seem to be around the same price as competing bars. The atmosphere is great and has an open feel. Smoking is outside only which is a plus for southside.
The only thing that i would recommend is to call in advance for a table on Wine Night (Wednesdays). They never use to take reservations but now it seems as if they do and it's hard to get a table.
this place is a little more laid back than some of the "clubs" on the south side, in my opinion. it gets just as busy at night, but it's a little hipper. i went here for a drink and appetizer the other day. we got the red pepper hummus and it was delicious. the service was good and the price was alright. what i really liked was the atmosphere, kind of steam punk hipster, with a large open window right in front.
