Hey man, is that the same place that they have downtown. I thought the food was really good, but over-priced. I was there for lunch though, so maybe I was in a different price mindset...

$150 total. ($30 Tip)

Fury- Yes, same as downtown. I have never been for lunch.....so I am not sure about their menu/mindset. But, I cannot give you a bad review, as I stated - this is one of my favorite restrnts in town. Love it.

Whatever the steak special is for the evening.....thats what I get. Never been disappointed.

Depends on what you order.. I really like the USDA Prime ribeye.. Its 28 just ask them not to put alot of butter on the plate. If you order a special then ask what the price is because some are very high.

I hope my BR favorites do not adopt Little Village prices.

the Ribeye is $28 (with side and salad)

if you want it oscar'd - they add $16.99.... it sits on a marchand de vin sauce...topped with hollandaise and lump crabmeat - served with a couple sticks of asparagus.

wife eats the fish oscar which was a huge portion for $32.99 - they had a sea bass/lemon butter/crabmeat special last night that i wish she would have gotten so i could try something different.......


if you drink water - i am sure you can get out of there for a bill.

be sure and get a half a village loaf as an appetizer - that bread is phenominal

The ribeye at 28 with sides and salad is one of the best deals I have found in BR for a very good meal. Village bread is more than worth what they charge for it.. Trust me I tried to make it and while it came out very good I would have came out way ahead had I bought it there.

I go to the downtown location for lunch sometimes and I do love the bread and the seafood cannelloni. While the wait staff is great and the atmosphere is nice, I feel like I'm yelling at people when it's crowded, so that they can hear me, or that I have to whisper to the people I'm with, right before the rush comes in, because everyone can hear what you are saying. That's the only downfall, but it doesn't stop me from going in there. Is the location on Airline set up differently?

Its the only place I have found here where I like to order a steak. Most places I like to choose something different that I couldnt do at home.
