This establishment is owned by the same folks who own the Hole in Point Loma, and they rolled out the red carpet for us. The other diners at this high-class establishment occasionally cast sidelong glances at the gay leathermen laughing and hugging at our end of the dining-room, and it was an incredible, generous and open-hearted gesture for the staff and owners to treat us like any of their other valued patrons. We were first-class customers at all times, and the food and service reflected this attitude.

There was a choice of two entrees for our group, and either one would have been a fine choice - I got to sample both. The prime rib was so tender that many folks were commenting as they used their butter-knives to slice it. The salmon was PERFECTLY prepared, tender, and right in that zone of perfection of not being over- or under-cooked.

The servers were attentive and chatty, and the group was able to have a carefree, jolly and successful event.

This same restaurant will be hosting the Victory Brunch on Sunday, February 27th (the day after the Mr. San Diego Leather Contest) from 10:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.

This is a brief blurb that I wrote elsewhere:


Help welcome the new Mr. San Diego Leather 2000 at a fine restaurant, surrounded by the biggest names in the leather community. Wear your finest, formal leathers or fetishwear in pride and honor, knowing that our local community has shown its best side once again. The folks at Fiddler's Green (who also own The Hole) are going all-out for this event, and promise to serve up a truly fine buffet. I can't imagine how it can be better than last year's!


As always, last night's event came together because of the hard work Wolfgang Martin dedicated to it over the last few months. This was the sixth such dinner in the last year and half, and these events run so smoothly that all that the attendees have to do is relax and enjoy. There were many new faces at this event, and everyone blended and mingled with good cheer.
