Have been coming here for years and the food is always good. Nothing fancy, just good,l family style italian food. Eggplant Parm is one of my favorites and they now have whole wheat spaghetti which is wonderful. Great prices and services.. Definately underated as far as Im concerned! House chianti is a great wine at a great price. Mon-Tues is all you can eat spaghetti for $5.95 and Wed - Thurs. Lasagne for $7.95. Overheard a server saying prices may go up a $1 due to economy. Still a great deal for your dollar!

I have been here for special occasions and just at a whim for the last 3 years. The service is OUTSTANDING and the food is awesome! The wine selection is one of the best in the area and if you want to bring your own nice bottle of wine in the corkage fee is fair. Parking can be a tad bit challenging but all well worth the hassel for the great consistent food, amazing appetizers and salads and attentive restaurant staff. BRAVO!
Pros: Great Food, Great Wine
Cons: Parking can be a beast in that area, just valet

Forget Denny's and IHOP...the Potholder is where you should be! Granted sometimes their wait is long, but have you every gone to an IHOP on Sunday after church is out? Talk about a long wait! Their food is excellent (I have friends from out of town WHO RAVE ABOUT IT and want to go back every time they come) and very, very reasonable in price. Love the potatoes. Love their hazelnut coffee and I don't drink coffee! Love all the variety in omelets. Since they are located on a busy street sometimes parking is a problem, but if wait until after 10am I have found that there is no wait and parking is easy to find and besides I know we all need a little extra exercise anyway :) Just think of it as a way to build up your appetite!
Pros: Food, Coffee, Staff
Cons: Parking (sometimes)

Lashers has some delicious American cuisine. I personally love their short ribs, but their lamb and pork chops are also delicious. The owners are very personable and the restaurant is very comfortable and warm.

I am amazed at the negative reviews. I have eaten there at least fifty times (I live in the area) and have had only very good food, very good service as well as reasonable corkage.
I have taken many friends there, and have had nothing but compliments in all categories.
I did find the brisket a little dry, but my friend liked it that way.
A bargain; an outstanding presentation; very fine food.
Nothing but compliments.
Pros: Everything
Cons: Nothing

First ever comedy club experience, and I have to say I came in skeptical. I'm not a heavy laugher by any stretch, and bad/inappropriate acts just make me uncomfortable.
However, despite going in blind (except for Bill Dawes, of whom I was already a big fan and he did not disappoint), I was thrilled by the performances of three very capable comedians, all of whom connected at least once with the crowd. John Roy in particular had me gut-laughing, something I haven't done in a long time.
Anyway, this club is an incredible find. Going in on a random night and finding quality talent is a privilege most US cities don't enjoy, so come check them out.
Pros: Quality entertainment. Can't ask for much more.
Cons: 2 drink minimum.

I worked at this restaurant (but currently do not) and I never got sick of their food! Their fish is GREAT! The third floor has great views and a lighter menu. The bottom two floors have a fuller menu and excellent options. The remoulde sauce for the calamari is wonderful and their salmon is excellent. Dont forget to save room for the toll house pie!!

I had dinner there for the first time with my boyfriend with whom I have been with now for the past 4 years. It was a very dreamy location with great sangria and fantastic food. The atmosphere is very romantic and very intimate. I have been there too when the musicians come and play music and the Spanish girls begin to do their traditional folk dancing which is amazing. Overall the service and the location is fantastic. Highly recommend it!

Everytime we have eaten at Cafe Piccalo we are treated by the mangement as if we come in every day and are family. It's a very romantic atmosphere, with great music and decor. The food is great! Price is a little high, but good for those special dates.
