“Experienced Diner of 50 yrs”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2010

I'm about Good Food and Great Prices. If I wanted to dine in a fine restaurant I would surely do that, but for breakfast and Lunch for reasonable prices the food here is Awsome. Prime Rib, Alaskan King Crab, Ahi, Butterfish and the Ham Hock is to die for. Dining here is addictive so watch out. More
