The Scene
Amid a stretch of trendy shops and eateries, this Franklin Avenue bar and restaurant divides itself between alcohol and rotisserie chicken. The contingent of neighborhood bar hoppers, singles and theatergoers converges inside the red walls to share drinks over sports telecasts. Winged-animal trinkets adorn the drinking area, which consists of a small-but-cozy bar, a few two-seater tables and an outdoor patio where smokers stake their claim.
The Draw
The owner's sense of humor is evident in the quirky personal touches. A backroom door is adorned with a sign that read "Employees and George Clooney Only." Another sign in a back corner booth reads "Reserved for Go-Go Dancers after Midnight," but does't specify how the area is transformed. But when the clock strikes midnight, the cushions are removed, platforms assembled, and volunteering customers can shake their stuff in the birdcage equipped with a swing.

This place is scary and violent. There are always problems here, and everyone seems to want to fight - too much drinking and nothing else. The food is sub par.

It's the same old tired crowd every night. All the regulars who live in the area go there 4-5 nights a week. Most probably because it's a short stumble back home at the end of the night. I can't think of any other reason one would want to go there. It's pretty much a sausage fest aside from a few girls that frequent the place, but they aren't much to look at and have made their rounds in that place. Good for lunch, not for night life.

This place has great atmosphere and the food is really good. I believe they had rotisserie chicken before it was fashionable. Hanging out in the evening is fun to.
