 I'd agree that the beer is yummy, and that I like the atmosphere, but I
 wasn't too wild about the food.  I've been there twice - once I had the
 meat loaf, and once I had a dijon chicken dish of some sort.  I found
 them both to be overly salty.  In fact, they were so salty that I
 couldn't finish them.  Now, I have a lower-than-average tolerance for
 salt (most French onion soups are too salty), but the recipes would
 have been, IMHO, so much better without all that salt.

 If they'd fix that, I'd go there fairly often.  I think the prices are
 reasonable, and the beer is good.
