on Citysearch Nov 16, 2006Not only is the food mediocre, I had to park/get my own car after paying a valet $3. The staff was rude and it took forever to get the food and drinks, AHH! NOT RECOMMENDED! (more)

on Citysearch Jul 17, 2005While I certainly wouldn't call the food the most authentice, it's pretty tasty nonetheless. It's really the ambience that's the selling point, however. I love sitting on the patio with the creek flowing in the... (more)
