So what if America’s most notorious modern-day pool shark, Danny Basavich, aka “Kid Delicious,” recently declared that hustling is dead? We say slapping down a dollar on a table to claim that 4-by-8 patch of felt real estate as your own still makes for a fine night out. Besides, the action’s white-hot at the Rialto Poolroom Bar & Café, where the last of the hustler-types still lurk amid the smoke, and not even a slick remodel can kill off the old hall’s boozy dive-bar heart.
After losing your savings to an innocent-looking pool hustler, the Rialto makes the fall a little lighter with a happy hour menu that includes a hefty burger for $4 and spicy buffalo wings for $3 from 4 to 6 Monday through Friday.
