Dan Tana's Restaurant

A friend of mine worked as a bodyguard for Phil Spector a few years back, and told me about how he would come into this place and approach a woman. He would walk up to their table, introduce himself and ask how much money it would take to go home with him. He would start piling up the hundred dollar bills in front of their faces until it exceeded ten thousand dollars and she could not say no. Being a raging ass munch with a chip on his shoulder, he would frequently start a fight and leave my friend to clean up the mess. Phil was right at home at Dan Tana's. But it is not entirely without merit. You can get Italian American dishes with a Croatian accent and if you are a toad like Spector, you could whip out a pile of cash to get someone to come home with you old school Hollywood style. It is similar to Musso and Franks but less of a tourist trap. The chicken vesuvius with a side of spaghetti is not bad, the scampi is better, but watching the dynamics of the room is the best.
