We live in the neighborhood and wanted to stop in for a dinner on the way to a movie. When we arrived on a Sunday night at 6:30, the place was already full of fairly drunk regulars. Server was always ""overwhelmed."" They were ""out"" of bread (but managed to make us garlic bread, though we had to pay for it) and the place smelled like someone's basement rec room. While the food was tasty, I ended up with a stomach ache for a day after eating there...coincidence? Oh, and the bill (with tip) for 3 drinks, two dinners and a dozen oysters was north of $100. Fine in a beautiful setting with great service. Outrageous in a dive bar where the server spent about 15 minutes trying to convince a man he was too drunk to drive...after which he was served alcohol again. Never going back!
