The Independence location has changed over many times. Most of the places that were there were really good, and even though it was in prime location, for some reason it would always be empty. This place seems to be busy most of the time ...

Larry’s in Venice I hate to say I wasn’t impressed with. The staff is nice, and they have an outdoor area where you can get some nice sun, but way ...
