Haven't been to either in a long time so was wondering if one happened to be markedly better than the other these days

It depends. What time are you going?

The later you go, the darker Chimes East gets. I like both places though. Chimes has the better beer selection, so for me, that would win out. Your mileage may vary.

i stumbled upon boil and roux sunday for lunch... yea i didnt realize what kind of establishment it was. With racial tension so high these days, i felt super uncomfortable. I tried to not feel that way but couldnt help it

I'd pick Chimes East, but it's mainly because of the beer selection.

You really cant go wrong with either one.
Chimes will be casual but loud, Id probably go Willies

It's a restaurant that attracts middle class black people that's right by a super busy, well-lit intersection. And it's surrounded by a host of businesses, including a large jewelry store. You really must be a very special and unique snowflake to feel "super uncomfortable" with those surroundings. I hope you were able to quickly retreat to your safe space.

Good info. I didn't realize this either. That poor wait staff

Willies has a better, um, atmosphere.

I gave B&R several chances because the 1st meal there w2as good, but it just got worse. The last time the glazed-eye waitress had to come beck and ask us what we ordered, twice. The race thing doesn't bother me a bit, but horrible service and having to keep ordering something else because "we out of that", just made it to much bother. Plenty of better places in the area.
Oh yeah, I wasn't to keen on the guy who came to our table and wanted to sell me a watch. Seriously?
BTW, Chimes East by a mile.

Willie's is more casual and fun but bar isn't as great. Chimes is more dimly lit, loud, but has better bar.
I like Willie's

I thought there was an unwritten law around here that those guys are only allowed to approach you while you are pumping gas at a gas station. At least he was not trying to pressure you into buying his mixtape.
