It seems to be tad further along every time I cruise by, but I hoped they would get the taps side open in time for this weekend, if not but for a soft opening to poor pour beer down the gullets of overheated All Star Fans. Big 12 and All Star Game will be a banner year for some downtown bars.

It is really surprising that it hasn't opened. The sign has been up for months--and such a nice sign. It looks to me like it ought to be open any day... of course it has sort of looked like that for quite a while...

Looks like this place finally has an opening date in mind. They've set the bar pretty high for themselves in what they are offerring. Looking forward to trying it out.

Oh man this place is gonna be sweet! Had no idea there would be a butcher shop and tilapia tank. Most excellent! The back area sounds like it will be a great hangout in the fall.

walked past the place on Wednesday and peered in the windows. People were working, but it didn't look close to ready to me. This is bordering on ridiculous, huh?

He must have deep pockets to have been working on this for so long without any revenue.
