Description
Unfolding beyond the entry, this deceptively large space includes bar seating and an extensive menu. It is a frequent pitstop for pre- and post-theater meals, though consistency remains a wildcard. While some diners depend on it for fast, hot takeout near closing time, others report mismatched expectations, citing overly sweet chicken dishes or uneven service.
