The "regulars" rule at this restaurant. We didnt have a reservation but were assured the bar area turned over quickly so we took a chance. We waited for an hour for people to free up the counter or bar area once they finished their meals, but the same people hung around forever..even took the stools from the counter! The staff allows it. I had a stool and my husband did not. We finally left !
