We ate there during grand opening, back when you waited outside on the sidewalk until the hostess called your name. It seemed OK, but hard to judge a place when it's packed. The $10 burger didn't seem any better than the $8 Chilis "Old Timer Burger", actually that one is really good.

We waited about a year and half and tried them again. That's when I got the impression that mixsonci had, that the place seemed dingy and dreary and needed to be brighten up a bit. It was also on a cooler cloudy day and they had the A/C turned on so much that the place seemed like a meat locker and there was moisture on the windows. Couldn't wait to finish the meal and get out of there. Then I read in the paper a week later that a waitress was arrested for stealing $4,000 from the place. Made me think, their management must not be very good to allow that to happen.

My neighbor and golfing partner really likes the place, so I guess we could give them another try, what's there to lose. We might have one drawback in that we don't drink alcohol when we eat out, I just don't enjoy that. There was time but that time had passed.
