As much as I eschew chains of any kind, I end up here regularly for their fabulous happy hour. It's my chance to try a new beer or just afford one I already like, and I really like their quasi-Asian inspired Californicated menu. Where else, I ask, can you get a heaping plate of spicy tuna sushi for about 4 bucks? The other menu items are tasty, but expensive for the value and some pints of beer can be as much as $5 outside happy hour. My only complaint is the noise level - if you're there past 6pm, plan to shout at the one sitting next to you. I've left with my ears almost ringing, and I'm under 40.
Pros: Beer selection, atmosphere
Cons: Very loud after 6pm
