get-away on busy downtown days. we love going to the hodo especially when everywhere is packed and crowded. it might get crowded in there too, but usually less than any other places downtown, and surely the atmosphere makes up for it. great wines, good selection of whiskey, tap beer is usually on the craft side, and the clientele is pretty well-behaved. drinks are well made, but the servers might sometime be a little on the arrogant side. however, we have met great down to earth servers over there, and i highly recommend the hodo lounge to all. try their walleye fish, yum!
