Perhaps we could reach a consensus before next Thursday if our selections were limited to one or two recommendations from our distinguished chairman with the monkey.

Well said. No Hooters! I'm a chick and don't swing that way.

Rob, you're the authoritative one...pick a restaurant

Sweetwater & Mike's American are both great places - Neither place likes to split a check though

...unless you are offering to buy

And, Miss Natasha won't let you within 1 mile of a Hooters, much less inside!

I have no preference between Mikes and Sweetwater. Take a look at their menus on line and I think that you will see some amazing similarities in items, costs, and even the basic layout of the menu itself.

Sorry I was just joking about hooters The only problem with the great american restaurants (sweet water, costal flats, mike's) is that they do not do call ahead for more then 6 people. Thats a long wait depending on how many people show... I called a few places and this is what I got so far:

Uno's in 5935 Kingstowne Towne Ctr, Alexandria (springfield) will seat a bunch on the patio of people and hold a table for us for thursday at 7. Nice and middle ground...

Coastal Flats: 11901 Grand Commons Ave, Fairfax, 22030 Is willing to accomidate 8 people all seated outside at 630. The nice lady I had to sell my immortal soul to get the table is Angelica... This is a great restaurant if you have never been there you should try it.

Uno's is right in my backyard, BUT Coastal Flats is really good. Either is OK for me.

Its going to be logans in Fairlakes. I can't make everyone happy and there is always next month.

7:30pm this thursday. BE there.

Post if you plan on coming since I'll get there around 7pm to get us a table.

For the new people. We try to move the location around. The last event was at my house which is close to woodbridge, springfield, dale city, manassas, etc... This time around we are going to move closer to reston, centreville, herndon, etc...

Next month we will move the location to springfield, woodbridge areas. Try to spread the miles.
