It’s great but expect to spend 120-150 per person.
Its sister restaurant Harry and Izzy’s shares the same kitchen and menu and prices. But doesn’t have the dress code or the waiter that cut your steak for you
As long as it's good, we dropped 1k for four at The Metropolitan Grill awhile back.

That 150 figure does not include alcohol or dessert. Just the entree and an appetizer.
Enjoy ! I remember those days with my sons, they where great

My anniversary is in a couple weeks, I need to try to plan a dinner up there. Been about a year or so since we last went
How many years?
So at our house we have several huge 2-3" river rock covered flower beds.
One large one is at the mailbox along the driveway adjacent to the road. We had flowers there last summer and they didn't do well.
I think between the rock, brick mailbox, concreate, and Kansas summer sun there too much heat being generated.
So yesterday we first went to the nursery and bought $400 worth of plants to replace the winter kill.
Oh, wait first I went and played nine holes of golf.
Came home and with her help spent four hours removing the rock, dumping it along the back of the garage, planting eight new flowers and spreading a mulch cover.
It looks nice. We had a mulch bed by the driveway and street at the last house and the flowers did well.
Only about ten more plants to replace this morning after softball practice and before some golf time got a tournament tomorrow.
Have a great day!!

When Tim is here after Carlisle we are hitting NYC for a few days. Now that will be interesting. Want to drag them to my old hangout McSorley's, you can only buy beers by six or twelve, light or dark. Still has only one bathroom from the old days when it was men only. Has a pee trough also. Was pretty funny when they made them allow women in in the early 80's. Interesting to say the least.
Wow thats Brandon, guess he is still there. Was a good friend

There's a $300 appetizer and a $300 steak on the menu, crazy.
Good luck tomorrow!So at our house we have several huge 2-3" river rock covered flower beds.

Married- 12 now. Together- 19. We had a stupid long engagement as we were trying to save for the big fancy church wedding and reception but never could get enough saved up for it with just me making 10 bucks an hour while in college and her in college. Kind of regret that length now. Eventually we realized it was stupid to waste the money on a single day to feed everyone else. So we did a private ceremony in the mountains next to a lake. One witness and the minister and photographer 350 bucks plus a couple hundred for the dress
Be good or be gone

Yeah wow.
Same here, 44 years and saved on our wedding, she agreed we could buy a good used car, witch we did the fallowing week (for her).
Yep, it's for you, that sounds nice!
How do you know that? That was my Friday/Sat place for years. Brandon had the apartment up stairs many nights we stayed there. My friend had a lifted, really lifted Blazer we used to take there. Never any parking around so being smart as we were we took the bottom off of a metal trash can put it over the fire hydrant and panted the curb grey primer. Never got caught prob a few hundred times!
My daily driver truck doesn't have cruise. Driven to Florida several times. 22hrs straight through. Your leg just kinda cramps at freeway speed after a while and you wont even notice it. It has been 200K miles and don't even think about it.
We knew each other since I think 9th grade. were friends. I went in the USN and was on leave in 87 and ran into her and married four months later. she really went from ugly duckling to super-hot. Married in my dad's house by the mayor. Keg of beer catered, and the next day moved her and all her things to VA. Then a month later to Hawaii. Was a interesting first year.
The magic of the interweb lol! Place looks great, gimme a steak sandwich!
Hell with that Liverwurst and a cup of mustard! Somewhere on the wall is a ships lighter we put up. Just the walls are a museum, that place was around a long time.
Great story, a lot to be said for a military wife, much respect!
