There is something so comfortable about the place, the food and the waiters. Like going home.<br />I think the nasty comments come from jealousy.

It was in the heydey of "THE Yuppie", Neighborhood Gentrification, etc. Yet this place was unpretentious, reasonably priced, and good.

I don't know if its under new management or if the owners just decided to cheap out on everything, but the quality has declined. Worse, they sell a gift certificate on restaurant.com... and don't honor it. (Instead, they force the waiters to give up some of their tip money to offer a small "discount"). To me, that's a borderline scam. Not surprised that DOH shut this down. They need to seriously pick up their game.Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02622796651693248198noreply@blogger.com
