The former Fixture address has transformed from a small plates spot to a laid-back neighborhood tap. A traditional bar menu features comforting choices such as mac and cheese, meatball sliders, burgers and, of course, wings. Eight plasma TVs let sports fans keep tabs on their teams. Although the bar caters to a more mature crowd of locals, we still can't figure out what's up with the "Sesame Street"-like sign.
