Twin Anchors Restaurant and Tavern

Leather booths, polished wood floors and marine-themed decor make this popular rib joint housed in a century-old building, cozy and inviting. The Tuzi family has owned the local institution for more than 30 years. Twin Anchors is more than just a neighborhood favorite--folks come from around the city and the wait for a table is often more than an hour. In addition to ribs, the menu offers steaks, seafood, burgers and salads. It's easy to get carried away by Frank Sinatra crooning on the jukebox, but keep this house rule in mind: "Positively no dancing."

I went back thinking I would give them another chance and WOW was I disappointed again. Stay away from the ribs, they're awful, so is the service.
