While "Mayslack's Meat" remains a hot number on the menu, the recent make-over of the place leaves something to be desired. The keg-cracked tile floors are still there, the fabulous tin ceiling with the dramatic crown moulding is still there, but someone -- perhaps someone's grandmother -- has painted the place with what appears to be a sponge. Remember sponge painting? Yikes. Still gets bands, still attracts a wide and diverse crowd. The service is friendly and fast and the patio is reasonably accommodating.
Pros: Decent menu, can accommodate a big table of your friends, friendly people.
Cons: May end up parking on the neighborhood blocks around the bar.
