The original Stephen Starr restaurant. Check out weekday happy hour from 5-7pm, with $3 beers, $5 cocktails and $1-$2 small bites.

One of the Starr originals, this spot's wasabi shoestring fries has helped soak up many a cocktail through the years.

Pile-o-smiles. I LOVE french fries and thought I had successfully tasted the best in the US and Canada...until my sister introduced me to the Continental's French Fries. I love the texutre, portion, presentation and their original horseradish based sauce drizzled on top is awesome! I have had 3 visitors from "home" (Alberta, Canada), and everyone get's treated by me to the Continental's fries! They are not to be missed and if I was being truthful... more than make up for the otherwise lacking service and ambiance.

Delicious and Inexpensive. Although it was extremely crowded and noisy inside and that my party of 3 had to wait an hour to be seated, once we were, everything was awesome. The waitress was fast as heck to bring us our meals (probably because they want to move as many people in and out as possible), but we still didn't feel rushed. All I have to say is order the Continental Salad - it's big enough as an entree for two! And the shoestring fries are different (what a huge helping, too!). For dessert, try the hazlenut bread pudding and an espresso martini. I'm definitely going back, but I think I'll try brunch next time.

great dining experience. though some might coin it 'trendy' or 'stuck-up' i had a wonderful experience here. the food is delicious (may i recommend the chilean sea bass), atmosphere sexy and playful with an air of class, and the martinis sensational (hawaii five-o and a cholocate for dessert). i went with 5 good friends and though the noise level made it tough for intimate discussion, we didn't have to hold back laughing out loud at the crazy and entertaining people strolling about outside the restaurant. this is a great place to have a delicious meal and start the night off.
