The facility has been open for eight years and attracts not only regular customers, but also many business professionals from the surrounding office buildings and nearby hotel visitors.
It didn’t take long for the guy sitting next to me at the bar to start talking sports. I really don’t mind that much, but I wanted to concentrate on the beating my Red Sox were taking.
So I retreated to one of the booths that line the walls around the establishment.
The booths have television monitors on swing arms that attach to the table and allow for individual viewing. That is an advantage and not anything I have ever seen in a sports bar.
The televisions and projection screens that they do have around the bar and on the walls are ample.
On one wall, there are five large projection screens, each with a different sporting event.
“The prices and the consistency of our customers is a big part of our success,” said Stephanie Potter, one of the restaurant’s managing partners. “There is not really any residential around us, but we still have a loyal group of people that come in here.”
The food is typical sports bar food, but Potter said the menu will be getting a remodel soon, featuring items like portabello mushrooms and free-range chicken.
That would be a nice addition. The old menu is ready for a change. I did find a few items I would recommend.
The first are the potstickers. They are five pieces of gyoza wrapping with ground pork, onions and ginger inside.
They were good, though the sauce that came with them was too sweet. I would have preferred the more traditional soy sauce, or even a ponzu sauce.
I sampled some of the other appetizers, including chicken fingers, mozzarella sticks and buffalo wings, and thought they were all good.
