3 on food because I didn't eat the one time I went.
Certainly a decent beer selection, as Miko points out. Unfortunately parking is scarce if the lot is full (likely, given how small it is).
Dunno, maybe I missed the awesome because I didn't eat? Trouble of getting in and out then actually getting someone's attention for a beer was more than my time is worth, to be honest. Maybe if I lived nearby and could walk there before it got too busy the story would be different.
Would much sooner hit Ginger Man or a number of other places with a broad draft selection if I'm just going out for beer. May have to go back and try some food to see if it's a better experience than above 1st impression.

Only complaint is terrible acoustics that make it impossible to hold a convo when crowded. But then there are always Capitol, Idle Rich and the place across from IR - all basically the same place. Capitol is least crowded but give it time.

Good beers, food was better than I expected. Had the mussels and a cheese plate. The cheese plate was huge. Also had some calamari - good and crispy. All in all, better than average bar food and great beer selection. It's a casual place to catch up with friends.

A pretty good place in the Henderson area. They have a pretty good beer selection as well. And you can't beat a place that actually has a decent patio to sit out on. Old Monk is a pretty good place if you're looking to stay local in the metro Dallas area and just want a chilled out kind of night.
