    The food is really good here, and they have a nice patio.

Who attended?

    • Jill (+3 guests)
       Excellent music and the place was laid back and mellow. 
    •  We had fun. Didn't really congregate with the Meet Up group, but we met some nice people. We went at 5:30ish. 
    • Bobby (+2 guests)
       There was good food (slow service), a large crowd, great people to hang out with and tremendous amounts of fun going on everywhere from all the good bands, hola hoopers, belly dancers and everything else... All in all I had a fantastic time being up there.
