Nice club, great performers, but the 200-seat capacity cited in the description is an exaggeration ??? it's closer to around 150. But its intimacy and top-notch jazz is what puts Scullers on par with the best NYC clubs.

It's a great place to get cheap and healthy food.
The food is really light -- not heavy and greasy like most Asian food. A great find!
Pros: quick, inexpensive
Cons: service can lack occasionally

If you specialize in making chicken wings, you'd better be serving them with some tasty blue cheese. Wing it has the worst blue cheese ever. It has no chunks and tastes like mayonnaise. Tragic. Otherwise, their food is pretty good. They have some combo meals and some larger packages for parties or just insanely hungry people. Their sides are good - i like their side Caesar salad. For some reason, maybe the blue cheese, I always feel a bit of a bellyache when I'm done though...

The smoked jumbo 100% all beef (or fat free veggie dogs) are the best I've ever had. Whats even better is that they are always fresh and served on a warm fresh crispy french roll. Top it with anything you could possibly want, or just a plain Spike's dog on a bun you wont be dissapointed.
Pros: price, quality, fun atmosphere
Cons: parking

Right off Comm. Ave. is a little green awning that says "OUR HOUSE" in plain white lettering. This place is pretty silly. You walk in and have baby-faced 18-year-olds ID checking you, and asking for backup on out-of-staters. Bad hip hop is blaring in the front room, and college kids are lounging on sofas and filling up the seats at the bar. Their best deal is the 16oz Brubaker for $2. Don't be afraid of its appearance, it's a recycled bottle, not a used one. They also have gigantic 24oz bottles of sam adams for $6, and even though regular bottles are exactly half the size and half the price, you look pretty badassed with that magnum in your hand. The back room has some foosball tables and sometimes has tournaments. They usually play better music back there too, and there's a 2nd bar by the back entrance that is usually way less populated.

Beautiful is a very apt adjective for this place. The decor is not overboard and is pleasing to the eye and is quite subtle. The food is delicious and well presented. And, it is also not expensive. For me, an appetizer, an entree, a maki roll and a coke cost me $24. Everything was delicious and I am sure anyone would be pleased with the food.
Pros: Delicious food and nice ambience
Cons: Parking might be a problem

I love this place. I had lived in the area for years and never even knew it was there. A friend dragged me in and I absolutely loved the place. It feels like your hanging out at a house, hence the name. The drinks are cheap and there is plenty of talent there.
