PENN AVENUE FISH COMPANY – Downtown
I just had lunch at PAFC downtown, and heard that the desserts at dinner are extra wonderful these days. I'm going to head down there for dinner soon.

If you like beer, especially crafts etc, there is a new place on Penn in The Strip called the Beerhive. Great beer list and great wings. The guy beside me had a pulled pork sandwich and climed it 'the best he ever had.' So if you are looking for a casual place, that is it.

WOW, what happened to this place? LOL!
It was one of my favorite hangouts back around 2002-2003?
Don't know about the food, but I can tell you that on a given Saturday night, the main floor was packed to the gills, elbow to elbow, that it was quite hard to get the mug up to your face. Even that little room in the back where they had the "dance floor" was packed. This was back when the strip was alive and well, with tons of people lining the sidewalks and streets from Rolands to DeJa Vu and Sanctuary before all went ghetto.
It was so packed the one Saturday, my girlfriend and I had sex on the one couch type chair and no one I think even knew or could see. LOL

Shockingly enough, I've heard it's the same folks behind Beehive.
