hard not to eat here all the time! hubby and i go and always sit at the bar (best service right?) they knew our name and remembered it from each visit after that 1st. HOW AWESOME IS THAT? the gnocchi are always good and so is the cheesy grits. i also like the fact that if hubby is out of town and i need some adult conversation, i can go here alone and sit at the bar and feel comfortable (sorry - old fashioned). if i am out of town, they always feed my hubby and send him home for a good night sleep after a couple beers!
when i lived in the suburbs, i tried to find a place like this. who knew it took moving downtown to find a neighborhood bar? and BONUS - good food and not crappy bar food we had become accustomed to (paninis, winking lizard, cleats...UGH)
sometimes i just want a place i can go in my sweats and also fancy slacks and a velvet shirt. this is it.
thanks XYZ - see ya in a couple days!
