The Republic offers great value with great size portions that are filling but not excessive. Given the moderate prices, I'd steer away from some of the meat items, as the price tag translates into cheaper quality cuts of meat. I ordered the grilled porkchops, and felt like I was chewing into leather. Another detraction as mentioned by another reviewer is the noise. This place isn't for the hard of hearing. So go to this place with a loud bunch of friends. The restaurant demographic skews young, so don't come hear, if you were born during or prior to the Nixon administration. Although the restaurant had a few misfires, the cool vibe, decent prices, and good portions outweigh the detractions.
Pros: Value, Location
Cons: Noise
