The Scene
This rousing double-storefront sports bar attracts a crowd more diverse than its Slope location might suggest. That's because its one-bar-fits-all formula works. On one side, tables come with paper and crayons for the kids while waiters in black serve an upscale dinner menu in a room fit for conversation; the other side boasts roaring fans, more TVs than Circuit City and 40 beers on tap.
The Draw
Every night, you can catch any game of the season--all NBA and MLB games, hockey, plus HBO's "Saturday Night Action Fights"--with revved-up supporters on each opposing side. But even non-sports fans can appreciate the three styles of wings and mega-burgers. The food ranks high above pub grub, the look is exposed brick and brass and the staff is on the ball. Weekends bring salsa music and a steamy pickup scene as competitive as the weeknight games.

This was my first time visiting 200 5th and it will also be my last. I ordered the vegetable burger and took my first bite into it about 5 minutes after it arrived. The vegetable patty burst and splashed on my face and left a 2ND DEGREE BURN on my face. The burger was ridiculously hot. It tasted fine but I was given no warning about the temperature risk. At any rate, I reported the burn to my waitress (very politely), showed her the blister that was starting to form on my face as a result, and asked to have my meal comped. Her response was that it was MY FAULT because I was obviously an "irresponsible eater". What!? I have never heard of anyone responding that way. She told me she would not comp my meal because "it was not fair to the restaurant" that I eat "that way". Her manager then came over and explained to me that food is hot when it is cooked (Really?!) and that it was my fault for not taking caution when eating. She did not respond to my point that food should not cause 2nd degree burns when it is ready to be served. She refused to comp my meal or apologize for the burn and accused me of having the burn on my face before I got there. My boyfriend explained that we'd be happy to pay for the meal except for my portion and she asked us to leave and never return. What kind of customer service is that? I will gladly NEVER return and I suggest that you do not either. Also, my face hurts.

I was searching for a nice place to dine late and have a couple of drinks. The food was above average and the wine was actually perfect, however to say that the service was lacking is being kind. Couldn't find the waiter half the time and when he was located, he was standding at another table watching the sports event on one of the many large screen TVs. My date and I will return and hope/pray to be seated in another's section. Surely they all can't be as inattentive!!
