What's up with the name Son of a Gun?Says Dotolo: "On boats, the space between the guns was used as a semi-private place for trysts with prostitutes and wives, which sometimes led to the birth of children with disputed parentage. Another claim is that the origin the term resulted from firing a ship's guns to hasten a difficult birth."
What's the seating situation?
Both reservation and walk ins for the big communal table. Wait until you see the banquette tucked right into the window.
