Appreciate it. I didn't know the guy very well but he was a good dude by all accounts.
We got tied up at the visitation by a guy telling a story that went on forever. We were on Osteria's cancellation list but didn't get a call. We were going to drop by there and just see if we could get worked in but the dude telling this story that went on forever pushed us up to the brink. I didn't want to bail on 940 at that point. I would've felt bad. However, after going there, I shouldn't have been worried. The food was fine but the place is odd. There are touches that make it look Iike it's trying to be upscale and then things that just don't fit that aesthetic like at all. Again, the food was fine. I've had much worse. But I would've liked to go somewhere "nicer." We walked around the square after and went upstairs at LSA Burger (???). It had an upstairs outdoor bar/seating area with a three-piece band playing country tunes. We had a beer, listened to the band for a bit and went home.
