Probably one of the top 3 restaurants in our city (even though it feels at first like you're walking into a small hole in the wall), it's evidenced by the fact that if you're not there by 5pm sharp when it opens, you're in for a long wait. It's the oldest consecutive run restaurant in the city since 1920, and the food is outstanding. The Horse Fries are unreal good, a burger never disappoints, and the Pot de Creme for dessert is something you will remember for weeks afterward and you'll long to return.
