third thought is that it would, assuming a different pronunciation, make a great name for a sister bar to the "Golden Gopher" in downtown LA (which I will admit, now that the statute of limitations for the abuse charge has...

charm will be remodeled away. Based on the Golden Gopher and Broadway Bar, I’m optimistic Cole’s 100-year old soul will remain intact. I wonder if the French Dip will taste the same? I always thought the old sandwich...

Its not fancy by any means but The Gopher Bar has great Coneys and Cosetta’s has outstanding italian food-cafeteria style...McGovern’s has great pub food......the Turkey Platter is awesome and way too much to eat....

I suggest you walk to the West Side District Del Sol and take the cab downtown. Skip all of the fancy places (Pazzaluna, Kincaid’s, Sakura) and go to the Gopher Bar for Coneys or Partick McGovern’s for the Roast...

Thumbs down on Uncle Franky’s. Bullwinkle’s is the closest, but it seems their dogs are a tad small. Gopher bar would be closest if not for the grilled bun slathered in butter...ends up almost like brioche. Adds a...

and in many ways similar to Mickey’s. For a more unique greasy spoon experience, try the Gopher bar for butter-fried coney dogs. Bring a long a big jar of Tums. Chicago has better high-end mexican at Frontera Grill, so I...

-owns the Golden Gopher and is about to open a couple of other bars in the area in the next six months or so. I’ve talked to him recently and he has no plans to change the overall vibe. It’s not going to be a...
