What else can I say? You are going in for experience and high quality. It is not cheap, and there is usually a wait, but WELL worth both. Watch bartenders jump over the bar (you know, because it is a full circle), and experience the sensation of "once you are on the ride, you don't want off very quickly." You will also feel the need to call out someone waiting for their ride, and then they can follow you around while you finish your drinks. Fun. We ordered a couple of old fashioned drinks (pic below), and then I switched to Stella. Corey (on right), and Shaun (on left) gave us great service. You can go in totally sober and still feel a little trippy since the bar moves, and good luck if you go in after other fun. We did the former and it still made us be more careful with balance. A FANTASTIC experience and very much in the heart of everything else you are doing during your trip.

Nothing but positive to say about this place. We went with a group for someone's birthday, so I look forward to visiting here with just the wife for the more personal experience, but our group experience was fantastic. It is downtown, so nothing is cheap, but you are paying for very high quality stuff. Some of the pics below are the proscuitto cantaloupe appetizer, the gorgonzola ravioli, the gnocchi, and the lasagna. Service was solid in efficiency and personality. More to write once the wife and I do the date night there. Great place, definitely recommend, and see you there.

I am very particular in hospitality, was in the business as a bartenderfor 14 years, and trust my review. Greeting was great at the door, and Ari made us feel at ease as we sat down. I just had my car totaled earlier in the day on my birthday, so I needed it. We loved Ari so much that we were very sad to see her go, but the rest of the experience was still fantastic. Seamless transition to our server, Janine. We had the insalada and aranchini for appetizers, and they were fantastic. If you love gorgonzola like I do, get the salad. They had one more lasagna but I didn't get it. But, they took care of me as they read the sadness on my face. Possibly, they recognized my love of lasagna and knew I would come back, but I am a good poker player and thought I hid it (but they were spot on, and I have never played poker for a serving of lasagna). My wife got the tagliatelle and I got the Indian/Curry/Italian dish (capelinni aglio with egg) and we were both very happy. My wife and I actually battled over hers, but just know the tagliatelle was very green. The Costi Di Moro red wine was a lovely wine for your meal. I will be back for the lasagna without a doubt. This is a 6 out of 5, I hope you get Ari or Janine as your server, and know this was a decision I will never regret for any occasion. If you get Janine as the server, just say "get me whatever you recommend. Thanks." Definitely recommend and see you there!

This is a cool spot in the heart of Tennyson. Lots of TV's for sports viewing, energetic vibe overall, and back patio area. Sort of a fancy dive, if you will, and that is meant to be a compliment. We have had a mixture of efficiency from the staff over the years, but EJ was our bartender for this visit, and he was amazing. Great efficiency, but his story is worth hearing alone...very interesting dude. For drinks, they are one of the few places that has Myrcenary IPA on tap so that alone makes me happy. They have lots of choices though. We hadn't eaten there up to this point, and I had the mac and cheese. Good, not spectacular, but enough of a tease that we will try another meal there soon. Considering the cool area it is in, I definitely recommend swinging by for a cocktail.

Just a heads up to go there early...or don't be intimidated by the line out the door. They have a good process, and it will move faster than it looks. I personally had the Sun City with pastrami. I recommend putting garlic cream cheese on it also. It was a good-sized sandwich with a good helping of pastrami. It was solid, and we will go there again to try more. It was our first trip, so I need to leave it at a 4 for now, but perhaps my next visit will advance that rating. For the amount of people there, just know it is more of a to go place rather than a dine in place in my book...which of course keeps the personality of a deli...so all good. Definitely recommend as it is a 4 and change for me, and see you there. Well, with the amount of people loving this place, you will see everyone.

NEXT VISIT:
I initially gave this four stars as my sample size was too small. I wanted to update this to five stars, as our last two to-go meals were great. I also wanted to include a better picture of the Sun City, along with pics of the place itself. We only get things to go, but know that it is a cool place to eat in also. The staff always is friendly and efficient with orders, and it appears to be a smooth running machine, whether busy or not. Cool street too, so you can go here and then do the walk. And only call your mother if you are telling her that she should go here to. Definitely recommend and see you there.
