I normally dread having to go to places like this; it's the combined apprehension of coworker lunchtime (watching the clock), the resonating belching of military personnel from the nearby base burping loudly into their beer, and the fact that this place smells more like a bar than a restaurant. Today, however, the sun was high and the patio was calling our name. Patios can truly make or break a dining experience, especially in this industrial/commercial no-man's land.
Not bad! Not too shabby by my standards. Had the steak sandwich with a side salad (on the paltry side) but everything seemed fresh and service was acceptable. Although this place is uncomfortably dark inside, the light of day on the patio revealed that all of our orders were presentable and free of suspicious objects or burnt edges! Yay! Success!
