Editorial Review

Think Kotter, not mono. Low-pretense joint not nearly as viral as we might have feared. Good for when the rest of the L.E.S. scene seems a little too precious. Straight-forward space draws laid-back skate-rat crowd (think Vans and hoodies) among usual L.E.S. suspects. Covers your simpler needs with solid burgers, brews, cheap Monday night wings, and a big-ass flat-screen TV—how the Amazin's doing? Bloody Mary and mimosa specials sanctify the Lord's day. Real draw is wide-open windows for street-scoping, abutting sidewalk tables perfect for sunny Friday campouts.
