"First off, it 's a perfectly short walk from the Commercial Garage — so great for parking. Then, the vibe walking in the door is, in two words, hardcore nerd. Not over the top, not Bennigans level campy shenaniganry, but real nerds showing off their love of an eclectic variety of topics.I visited for a wedding, and they had opened up the floor to be very inviting. I am a veritable mountain of a person, so when I sat down on their non-barstool seating, I was pleasantly surprised that it was comfortable to my 6 '8 large frame.I didn 't get a taste of their food, but the menu looks amazing — accommodating a huge variety of tastes and diets (and nerdiness with their names). There 's even a d20 Roll for Shot menu which, like with my own GM style, seems fun instead of punishing.But I would be remiss not crowning my review with the gems Montana and Jules, the bartenders of the night. The hosts had paid for a large number of drinks for the guests, and these two were absolutely on it. When I stumbled around ordering I dunno, something with whiskey or bourbon in it, Jules immediately recommended a house special Capt. Cody — named for one of the wedding party. It was a multitude of flavor, hitting more than just a booze on booze on booze note. Montana recommended another and hit me with the bride 's favorite — the name of which escapes me — 4 or 5 kinds of raspberry with a nice splash of citrus.Endgame feels like a place that actually wants you there, not just get a drink and clear out kind of vibe. Highly recommended."
