not what I expected. after reading the reviews I was expecting a really bad dive so I wanted to see for myself. one thing I noticed was some of those reviews are dated year 2012 so I was happy to see that things were nothing like the reviews. very clean bar friendly customers. definitely a favorite for the neighborhood. do you want to go somewhere meet friendly people and laugh with the bartenders, this is the place you're looking for. there is no BBQ and no signs telling you that. they have a small kitchen with a good menu they cook until 1 o'clock in the morning. I know I'm going back. hope to meet you there
