 I have been to this place once before with a coworker and I did not know what to think of it. Maybe that is because I had too much to drink. Possible? For me? I won't answer that question. Anyhow, I went again last night on a Partial Day Date with my lovely woman. The first thing I noticed is that it was dark. It had that Dive Bar feeling but when I thought about it further, it really had a Neighborhood bar feeling. You know? Like, a real neighborhood bar...It was a lot of locals and they had an impressionist singer reciting everything from Pretty Woman to Neil Diamond. He actually was not bad. They had this bar heckler there that made my girlfriend kind of upset because he was screaming at the guy while he was singing. Anyhow, oh yeah, the food.......The food was okay at best. The steak was pretty dry and the everything else like the bake potato and steamed vegetables was average. However, I must say that the food did not damper my spirits on this  place called The Place. Wow......That just happened!!!! Really to sum it up, there are some places where you go for food and there are some places you go to hang out, have a few drinks and shoot the shit. This is one of those places. I can see myself going back in the near future.
