Jake Smith: If you order a bagel sandwich to go, be sure to grab some extra napkins. The sandwiches are delicious but can create a mess if you're eating on the go.

Jake Smith: The #3 is basically a Reuben on a burger (pastrami, gruyere cheese, sauerkraut, and an unbelievable remoulade). If you're into this type of thing, don't hesitate to pull the trigger.

Jake Smith: If the movie you're seeing calls for audience participation, participate! The staff sometimes hands out sheets with information about how you can participate better during the film.

Linda Felter: Seriously this burger. The cheese is worthy. Wash it down with a Shark Meets Hipster and bring your dog to sit on their sidewalk patio. Perfection.

Derek Kucynda: I've been going to Smartbar for years and it has YET to provide a disappointing night. Kaskade used to DJ here, but now Derrick Carter and other house(+techno) legends slay the dance floor!
