    A must stop with an appreciation for writers and literary culture. The menu is a great - both bar and kitchen - and they have a Hemingway Tiki mug

    Divey little place with a classy concept. The kitchen is consistent, the food exceptional, and the prices amazingly reasonable for the FQ. Just wish they "fork" out for utensils that aren't plastic.

    The Kobe beef burger blends sweet, salt, and savor perfectly. Plus, actually cooked to requested temperature! Add a painstakingly squeezed juice, and you have a great meal!

    Whitman is one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. This place is stupid cheap, too!

    Is someone seriously complaining that the drinks had too much booze? They cost half of what they do two blocks over and they're delicious. Shut The Fuck Up!

    The Death in the afternoon is great if you like black licorice flavored stuff.

    Drinks weren't great. Too heavy handed with the liquor. Service was ok, although the bartender was very negative and complained a lot. Internet went out so cash only bar after that. Over priced.
