We REALLY want to try it out as it's so close, but are still kinda hesitant given the bar's well-known history!

I was there about a month ago. It was pretty quiet on a weekday night, my friends and I were actually the most loud and rambunctious people in the place (and we were trying to be polite as well). The place was actually a bit of a snooze fest. I guess it was an off night or something. Was also VERY expensive... we quickly ended up with a $200 bill before we knew it (and none of the 4 of us were even feeling warm and fuzzy after that). Just a couple of rounds of rye and ginger was the rule of the night and a round of shots of tequila (ew). No food (the kitchen had actually closed by the time we went there).
Kind of funny, we wanted to go to the Rebels Rock but it was closed. wtf
The history of Corktown that I was told about certainly doesn't exist any more (a couple of my friends were regulars back then and they find the place boring now).
