We went during one of the torrential downpours of last winter. The parking lot was nearly flooded so we ran past all the neat outside artifacts straight into the restaurant. Parts of the roof were soaking through and one of the back dining areas was leaking so badly it was closed off. The wet carpet gave the place an appropriate soggy/musty smell. Needless to say I walked over every square inch of the joint to check it out. My party was pretty huge so we didn't get a booth, which made me sad. That place has THE COOLEST BOOTHS ever. EVER. Especially the jail ones. Well worth a long drive, even in a the middle of a monsoon. -Joe
