Zagat Survey 2003 America's Top Restaurant
"Cost-conscious diners crow about getting "Janos Wilder's food at half the price" at his "spirited" and far more "casual" offshoot (adjacent to Janos);
from the open kitchen emerge "blissful" grilled Latin American specialties infused with "wonderfully original flavors" (the "jerked pork is fantastic"),
while the handsome bar, custom-made of tin and mirrors, hosts a convivial social scene; "big food without big attitude" plus "a mean margarita" - "you can't ask for much more."
