Over Hyped and Over Rated 10/4/2007

I went here with a couple of friends from work after having heard it hyped up for months. My expectations were very high. I was told that we needed to rush and be first, so we don't have to wait in line. Not being a senior citizen on the early meal plan, we did not make it by 5pm, but rather 6pm.....there was of course a line...the last time I waited in line was a Vegas night club at 2am, so needless to say it felt rather silly. They are strict at the door, so they only let 2 out of 3 of us in the door as the space became available. Very annoying for a restaurant at 6pm. Once in, all seats were taken, so we immediately went into table hovering mode, as there really is no place to stand without being on top of somebody eating. (same idea as a crowded ski chalet at lunch hour). We had the burgers (no change options as stated by many) and the short ribs; the food is way hyped up...the burger was OK, the flavors did not necessarily meld since they combine blue cheese with carmelized onions...first couple of bites are good, but the tastes get overwhelming. The short ribs were also just OK..nothing you can't get at any other decent place in town. In short, very crowded, small, average food, but good beer...out of respect, I did not say anything at the time; I just kept shaking my head as to how good it was. However if you go, lower your expectations, and do not fall for the all the hype. Pros: Beer Cons: Food & Seating more
