La Tasca - ate there for the first time a few weeks ago - service and food both horrible. [/b]

I've been told Jaleo is popular...

I loved Iota the only time I've been there so far, but it was Agents of Good Roots and as they are my favorite band, I think it'd have had to be an absolutely disastrous show for me to hate it.
 
 I liked the sound (for someone who's got severe hearing loss, I could hear so much), and their drinks were yummy.

But definitely not blue collar.

Considering the type of venue and it's modest decor, I think the food at Iota is fairly good and much better than I had expected considering that the club portion looks like it would be more of a burger and wings joint. Sure, I could nit pick on a few items but I've always been rather pleased with what I've had. It's not cheap but about comparable to other similar menu items around town. I'm not a big pizza fan so I would opt for Iota over any pizza joint anyday. But that's me.
