The Vig is part of the successful revitalization that has been happening on 16th Street the last few years, and is now one of the hottest taverns in town. In a previous life, the building was a bank; I love that they respected the integrity of this mid-century modern building by keeping a lot of the original structure - the outside bar used to be the drive-thru teller window! They did a great job the overall design both inside and out - the atrium area is a wonderful place for large groups to gather. Being a former bank, so be forewarned that there isn't much parking available - love the valet option!\n\nI wish I was as enthusiastic about the food. Generally speaking, although there is a variety of menu offerings, it's all pretty much upscale bar food. It was good, no complaints, rather just average and nothing special or outstanding. \n\nThe staff was friendly, and our waitress personable and attentive. The place is pretty noisy, though - so if you are looking for a place for a quiet conversation, this isn't it.\n\nWill I go back? Sure but probably only for drinks. It may be over hyped, but it's got a great atmosphere and great libations.
