Easy Street

It is 7:30 on a Friday night. Let us repeat, 7:30 on a Friday night. We walk in and find some seats at the moderately crowded bar. The outside patio is packed and there is an acoustic guitar guy. Strangely, people do not seem to be avoiding the acoustic guitar guy. Who are these strange beasts? We purposefully situate ourselves as far as possible from the acoustic guitar guy. 

After a long time, we are finally approached and our drink orders are taken. We then ask for menus and are told "Sorry, the kitchen is closed." This takes us back. "Wait, at 7:30 with a bar full of people you decided to close your kitchen?"  The bartend replies, "Yeah."  "When do you close your kitchen?" we ask. "Whenever we feel like it," he replies. So, that was strike three and we quickly ask for our check and finish our stats as quickly as possible.

Overall impression: if you are an older rich guy who wants a young trophy girlfriend, this may be

your place! We saw at least four couples with a 20+ year age difference doing their thing. If you are the kind of guy who thinks he can pull off a tight t-shirt and a sports jacket, this may be your place. We have bad news for you though; you look like a total douchebag. You are neither Crockett nor Tubbs, my friend.

This place is huge with a gigantic outside seating area. We assume it is not always contaminated with the smooth jams of an acoustic guitar. The interior looks like some generic Panama Jack display. The menu looked really good, which is why we went there to start our night. We did not end up eating properly until 1AM as a result of this, which might have influenced some of our other experiences that night. We hold Easy Street personally responsible for all subsequent shenanigans on the night of August 16th.
