usually im a pizza and beer kinda guy but this time i wanted to try something different. tallboy is a great place to try the martini and hotdog combo. its sounds weird but the martini/hotdog combo kinda works! especially with the fancy glizzys they have on the menu.

Just wanted to warn anyone planning to go specifically for dinner - be prepared to shark for a table on weekends. It was too busy to even order at the bar. The food is highly recommended by friends who have been so Im sure it’s delish!
