| - After about a half dozen visits to this place over the last few years, here's my take on what they have going on - the service and kitchen execution are as hit-or-miss as Mark Reynolds circa 2009.
Imagine if they had a menu where the only thing they offered was lemons, sugar, water, and potatoes. You go there and order the lemons, sugar, water, and potatoes, because you figure that's their specialty. Sometimes you get ice water with a lemon and a side of mashed potatoes, sometimes you get Mike's Hard Lemonade, and sometimes you get a Lemon Drop made with Kamachatka. Depending on your expectations and mood, you might enjoy any one of those things one time or another, but it is hard to tell which one you will get during any particular visit.
If you're in the neighborhood, it's worth a shot if you're in the mood for high-concept diner/deli cuisine, but based on my last few experiences, you're likely to end up with a home run, a groundout, and two strikeouts over the course of your visit.
