I will say this, i haven't had a bad experience here in the many times I have attended and I will give you a tip...if you are going on a Friday and think you will sit at the bar, be forewarned, you probably won't. The place is full of regulars who arrive an hour early , at least, just to get a seat at the bar and they know each other so they are watching and waiting for seats to open. It is a great crew, a family really, and fun if you can be so lucky to be a guest with a regular. Go anyway, but be ready to wait regardless, it's busy and delicious!
