A la carte makes for very reasonable prices. Burgers are great, salads decent, fried macaroni croquettes deadly for the diet, but watch the fried pickles...uggh.....They did not agree with me. I had not visited The Penguin in three or four years and the staff - whose wild sideburns and tattoos were so integral to the fun of this iconic restaurant - have apparently left under the new management. Still, If you've never been, plan to visit some of the nearby businesses in this neat little neighborhood just off Central Avenue as it leaves uptown.
