It's been pretty hit and miss with me, though the last three times that I've been there it's been a hit. But that was probably close to 10 years ago, this is a great reminder to try it again. The "lesser" quality of food is that you are served is okay and that Martini tastes better than it actually is as long as you approach it with the same nostalgia as you would sliding into one of the booths at Musso & Frank's in L.A. or The Tadich Grill in S.F.
