      <![CDATA[One of my favorite bars in town for a low-key weeknight drink.  Everything is reasonably priced.  They obviously read their feng-shui books, because the fishtank is a vision when you walk in.  I also really like the staff; they are unpretensious and friendly (just don't be a creep by taking advantage of their friendliness- they're paid to be nice to you, after all).

      <![CDATA[Very comfortable place to hang out if you don&#39;t min [reeking] of smoke when you go home. I mixed a very diverse group of people and we all had a blast BUT the chicken tacos tasted like asshole (don&#39;t ask, it was once in college). Happy hour there rocks, just don&#39;t eat the tacos... or, they should learn how to season and shred chicken and they&#39;d be good to go. It&#39;s quite simple, guys... very minimal effort required I swear.

      <![CDATA[the chicken tacos are the worst i&#39;ve ever had, but the curried chickpeas &amp; rice are quite tasty and only a buck with a drink.  i like the non-pretentious vibe there, even if it is hella smoky.

      <![CDATA[The smokeyness gets to me after awhile. If only it were non-smoking [it is now -Ed.], I&#39;d adore sitting in the ambiance (I&#39;m sure some would argue that without the smoke, there IS no ambiance...), playing the Ms. Pac Man table and enjoying the buzz of noise that builds up in the evenings.

As I started my most recent business, we sat in their and yelled our business plan across the table to each other. Go there on a weeknight evening!

      <![CDATA[The basement is a great little spot for a drink and the super-cheap PBRs got me through a stretch of poverty. And the food, while nothing to write home about is super-cheap and not deep-fried!
