Hmm... it seems I need to do some recon with Steven Davey so he's not reviewing restaurants the day before I have plans to go there. Because with their no reservations policy, now I'm gonna be stuck standing in line waiting for a table at Local Kitchen and Wine Bar, which is sure to be packed after Davey's favourable review.
