Yeah we went the other day.  They bring stuff out randomly as it's made.  It was pretty weird and we didn't really enjoy it.  Everyone I've talked to wasn't really a fan either.  I'm assuming they are doing it to try to get food out as fast as possible since they had the totally opposite reputation before.  I'll continue to go there for drinks.  The food was kind of meh too.

Went barhopping last Thursday and stopped by the new area at Kickbacks.  Had a couple of beers there and talked with the bartender about the long-awaited Belgian beer garden planned for the basement which he advised is still in the works.  He said they are nearing completion and that it should be open soon, perhaps within a couple of weeks.

I ate there the other week. Food was fine, as always, but I'm not a big fan of dishes coming out randomly either. I hope that changes in the future.

A beer garden in a basement?

Thanks, Adam White, I was wondering the same thing.  Wouldn't that be more of a "rathskeller"?

That makes sense. I was wondering if it was just another "steampunk" thing that I didn't get.

Me also... ordered fish and chips at the bar... runner came out with a plate of chips looking for whoever ordered it.  Nobody claimed them... they were mine I found out later... when my fish came out... with no chips.  They brought me the cold plate of chips... which I sent back.  They really need to fix this...
