I came here with two others and we got a seat at the patio. Beware of the corner seat next to the street, it is right above the gutter, so it's not the most appetizing area to sit. Besides that the atmosphere was good.
FOOD: As advertised everything on the menu is around $5. The portion sizes are decent for that price. I had the macaroni and cheese. It wasn't the best mac and cheese I've had but I'll take it for $5 and it's a good portion. We also had some BBQ chicken wings appetizer to share which was good too.
DRINKS: Their drinks are unfortunately not $5, in fact no drinks are below $5. I had a Caesar for $6 and it was decent.
SERVICE: Their service was great, nothing to complain about. They don't split the bill though, so be prepared to do some calculating.
In the end the bill came to around $15. So I would not consider this place to be "cheap" unless all you're going to order is the $5 meal and nothing else. If anything, I would order 2 meals if I'm hungry, and it would add up to a normal lunch price.
