Profile

If you want to revisit those college years you spent in a beer-and-jalape�o-popper-induced haze, you could do worse than ACME Bar & Grill. (Though you could do better, down the street at Great Jones Caf�. Think of ACME as "Good Jones Caf�.") In a spacious room festooned with bottles of hot sauce and �funny� signs, ACME serves up decent Cajun/Southern food, like fried okra, catfish, and �big bowls� of gumbo and jambalaya, as well as a good selection of beers (Abita and Acme Home Brew) and cocktails (Jack Daniels-spiked Lynchburg lemonade) to wash them down with. Still, this is the Noho, not Columbus, Ohio, so the crowd will be less fraternitized than simply raucous.

Brunch

Sat.—Sun., 11:30 a.m.—3:30 p.m., $10.95

Happy Hour
Mon.—Fri., 4 p.m.—7 p.m.; half-priced appetizers and drink specials

I went to ACME last weekend, and ate far too much. ACME can dish out the portions, that's for sure. They also feature $2 ACME-brewed beer ...It tastes a little like metal though.
