The Hole, Uncle Moe's open near U of M

Reviews of two new casual eateries

Better than your average sports bar: Burger and fries at the Hole

Sandwiches were all huge, but the two of note were the braised pork shoulder, with the sweet-and-spicy barbecue sauce, and the fancied-up tuna melt, with bright notes of lemon zest and fresh herbs. The burgers may not be quite on a par with say, the Bulldog's — ours all tended to be a little overcooked — but ingredients are used creatively here, especially in the Euro, which features the return of the sweet and playful piquillo pepper and pairs it with salty notes from green olives and prosciutto.

These two new casual Dinkytown eateries serve separate purposes, of course, but if you're in the area and aren't running from a chemistry class to a cadaver lab, I'd say the Hole is the one worth digging into.

So, I go to Uncle Moe's tonight to try the garlic beef sandwich.Posted on the door, dated today, was a court writ to vacate the premises within 24 hours.There was large open space where they might have had tables & chairs and there were bare wires sticking out of the wall where they removed the light fixtures.

Damn, I wanted that garlicky roast beef sandwich ~ ! ~

It would be nice if people tried something or actually knew something about a place before they decided that they're uninformed opinion was actually worth anything.

Yeah you were absolutely right about Moe's. Thousands of people walk past it everyday and a majority still wonder if it's open yet. Walked past it during Happy Hour today and didn't see a soul inside. Contrary to Downtime...R.I.P.
