It’s world famous entertainment destination since 1980! Restaurant Row in NYC in the theater district, it’s a must-be-there and come-often NYC staple.
Always have a blast whenever I visit. High energy, friendly bar with reasonably-priced (for NYC!) drinks and food.
I dont know about the food because we didn't eat here, but the atmosphere was great, the staff was great. All around great and fun place.
