We can only assume this
joint is supposed to resemble a hunting lodge or something, but instead
it reminds us more of a geriatric, Irish-ish bar on the Upper East
Side. We're not saying that wall-to-wall bluehairs is necessarily
a bad thing, but the toothless chomping can be a little off-putting,
if you know what we're saying. Maybe they feel cozy swaddled in wood
and flanked by a fireplace. Maybe it reminds them of the days before
electricity. We're not sure, but it's not as if the younger crowd
that is there is going to drag them kicking and screaming into the
twenty-first century. Coming to this place for anything other than
a hearty, American meal (burgers, french onion soup, fried calamari,
etc.) is only going to lead to disappointment. It's nice the older
folks have somewhere to go that doesn't have to be hip or fun or living.
