Plan on waiting on Saturday's

I've been to Sullivan's on a number of occassions and have always ahd a great experience. I've always ordered the steak and found it to be consistently excellent along with the service. I've only had one negative experience on a Saturday night. I was seated in their outdoor patio under a plastic tent with heaters blowing. The ambience needless to say was lacking plus it was loud because of the electric blowers for the portable heaters. I felt they should have had a seperate menu with lower prices but they charged the same price as if I were dining in the main part of the restaraunt. The service was sub-par --maybe it was someone new and inexperienced. Overall I rate it a B
