Their kitchen stays open until 2 am on Fridays; their (wide selection of) food is good - especially their bakery items; they have booths that can accommodate a dozen or more people; and they have these nifty little juke boxes at each booth so you can control the room's music right from your table (bring quarters). <i>Classical Gas, California Dreamin',</i> Rosemary Clooney, Dean Martin, Van Morrison, the Stones ... they have it all. What's nice is that even with a single bill, they let each person pay their own share at the register.<br><br>OH!
