Yep, I ate many a raw oysters at that place. I'm friends with the son of the owners, not sure if his dad was named Manuel though. Last name starts with an S.

Second that emotion on Mickey's Gold Nugget. Steak Diane!
Before that--Uncle Ben's Fried Chicken. (on the staff's red t-shirts: "Uncle Ben's Breasts Are Best!") Place was pretty nasty, but the chicken was stupid good.
Also, the Romanos on North Boulevard had some rollin' fried chicken too. It was demolished for the new overpass.
