I believe most folks enjoyed their dishes, I was pleased with mine but felt that they didn't shine as well as when I've been there with a smaller group. I think maybe the small kitchen was a bit overwhelmed with 14 orders at once, plus the restaurant was much more busy on a Thurs night than I would have guessed.
That said, always good to have a dinner when holmedown comes to town and seeing as FriendlySkies decided to fly in as well was terrific.
fun time, glad everyone could make it, even a new face!

Thanks Willie for organizing. I had a wonderful time - far too long since I've talked to FriendlySkies. Also I met some new fun people to possibly get together with downtown. All the best to the marathoner who was their.
I figured out why I don't remember recommending this place. Since I had never been there it could not have been from personal experience so I must have seen it on "Check Please" and was salivating.
Thanks again to all.
