Description

The physical setup is entirely zero-frills: a basic, unheated vestibule decorated with ancient photos of the dishes, with absolutely no dine-in seating. Anyone waiting for an order in the winter should dress accordingly. The draw is a kitchen that consistently turns out hot, fresh food that regulars rank above standard takeout quality, run by a phone operator who keeps orders organized and accurate.
