Haven't been there in 15 years and went back today with my kids and husband. The food is even better than I remember, the outside area was perfect for us, clean and spacious ( the music was loud initially and they kindly turned it down on request). Servers were fast and friendly. Delighted it was so good. Will be back again next time we're West side

Jean was our server and by far the sweetest most attentive server we had!! Corned beef was the roast of the day and let me just say that it was the absolute best corned beef I’ve ever had in my life! Even my wife, who doesn’t enjoy corned beef,...
