I've never been quite sure what to make of the place.
It's not really a neighborhood place, where you can stop by to grab a quick dinner, because each time I've taken the family, the bill alone is about $100.
But, as a destination place? I can't imagine I'd seek it out if I lived in, say Fishtown.

I've stated before that it's a tough spot they're in: They spent a TON of money buying and fixing up that place, so the burger/sports bar idea isn't going to generate enough profit to keep it in business. But the lack of parking makes it tough to get along as a destination place.

Hopefully, they can find that niche and have a long run, because it is a nice spot and they've been responsible neighbors.

... maybe they should think about turning it into another Pho joint...
