It's really not that good.
I do like Bobby's place at the Smithhaven Mall...the burger I had from there was good. |

You will only find mega stadiums, auditoriums, colliseums, etc, in what most would consider "less desirable" neighborhoods because that's the only area's they will be able to get away with building them in.
Everybody likes going to them, nobody wants them in their backyard.
