The Rigby Pub and Grill

Sunday, November 6th, 2011

During its final months, the Casbah was in such disarray that some days it was open, others closed, then open, then closed again, that I was glad something finally replaced it. That something is the Rigby Pub and Grill, a Beatles-themed establishment located a block from the Capitol.

I’m a sucker for burgers named after a restaurant, so of course I started with the Rigby Burger ($8), which is topped with onion straws, melted cheddar cheese and “magical mystery sauce,” which was a tasty mayonnaise-based sauce (I suspect). I enjoyed the combination of flavors. As with all the sandwiches, you get your choice of potato chips, coleslaw or potato salad on the side.

The Bigger Than Caesar Wrap ($7.25) was hearty with the grilled chicken and came in a spinach and herb wrap. Other items include the Dear Reuben ($8), Lonely Hearts Turkey Club Band ($7) and the Let it BLT Wrap ($6.25).

I also had the onion straws ($5) as an appetizer, along with the And Your Curd Can Sing ($6.50). I actually prefer these types of fried cheese curds with the crispier exterior. I could take or leave the accompanying buffalo ranch sauce, though it went well with the onion straws.

The Rigby has daily food and drink specials and a DJ on Saturdays. The upstairs can be rented out for private parties and includes a pool table.
