This place is a typical faux Irish wannabe bar. Beer selection is terrible. Food is completely standard bar fare. What I can't understand is the terrible music. Why with a place that invested so much in infrastructure would play the Mix? Listening to commercials? Don't fret...there's enough TVs (13 from where I sat) so you don't have to talk with the people you are with. This bar belongs nowhere near Lincoln Square...perhaps Lincoln Park or Wrigleyville or in the Suburbs. The city doesn't need another Applebee's knockoff. If you like anything original, inventive or fun, then stay away from this travesty of a bar.
Pros: Good looking bar; not crowded
Cons: Terrible service, lackluster drinks, uninspired
