  with the usual caveats, my sister is a hostess there.  (the short 
korean one.)  since she eats there for free, she's been eating quite a 
bit there.  pastas are supposed to be good, as well as the bannana creme 
pie, i believe.

  u must've been lucky.  sis was chewed out by a guy who waited for over 
an hour.  reservations not accepted, unless for at least 6.

   to also keep in mind, if u plan to go at night, at around 9 pm, there 
is a $25 entertainment charge tagged onto the bill.  sis said that there 
is no charge if u spend the night on the patio.  view is not as good, but 
you can still hear the music.
