The price to see a concert is good, the dinner menu is priced affordable and the waiter service is excellent. My server check on us to see if we need anything else regularly. There is no parking except on the streets, so get there before a little before 6:00 pm to find some close street parking space !

I have had to eat gluten free for almost a decade now and this is by far one of the best menus I have found in California. Even if I wasn't GF, I would still be eating here. Food is always 12/10 along with service + ambiance. A note to the Open Table developers: need to enable 6 star ratings literally just for 401k.
