And so in the opinion of this critic, Mickey's Good Time Tavern is anything but dismal decor, perfunctory service and cuisine only marginally preferable to hunger.
And finally, on a sadder note, after 53 years, Orsini's is closing its doors.
Tonight, a sad adieu to the grande dame of Seattle restaurants.
I thought he was the grande dame of Seattle restaurants.
Till next time, this is Gil Chesterton saying "Bon appetit, buon appetito and nifty noshing.
" - Gil, why is Orsini's closing? - The owner wants to sell.
And Orsini's is like wine that's stayed too long in the cellar - only memories of its former glory.
- Not comping your cheque? - Not for months now.
Orsini's was my favourite restaurant.
Have you ever been there, Roz? My typical date's idea of a gourmet evening is take out, make out and home by Letterman.
- Knock, knock.
- Show starts in two minutes.
Look at the John Steinbeck I bought at the rare book fair.
"St Katy The Virgin", in like-new condition.
She'd have to be, wouldn't she? It's a shame more people haven't read it.
- Let's see.
- Don't! You'll decrease its value.
Oh Niles guess what, a thriving nightspot is closing its doors.
Roz, you're moving.
No Niles, Orsini's is closing.
It can't be! It's part of Crane history! Grandfather took me there for my eighth birthday.
- Thanks, Roz.
- Such vivid memories.
Paper hats, singing Happy Birthday, sending back the veal Prince Orloff.
Let's go to Orsini's for a glorious farewell dinner.
I'll make reservations.
We'll take Dad and Daphne.
She had a bad experience there, one Christmas Eve an Italian soccer team was there.
Maris announced she was in the mood for a goose and tragedy ensued.
Dear God.
What has happened to this place? It's like running into a movie star you once worshipped, only time has left her hair brittle, her eyes sunken and dull, her skin waxy and sallow.
I've got an appetite.
How about you, Daph? Yes, sir.
Do you have a reservation? Yes.
The name's Crane.
For four.
Table nine seems to be free.
Right this way, sir.
- Your waiter will be here in a moment.
- Thank you.
Here, Daphne.
- Thank you.
- Dad, Frasier, isn't that Otto? My God, I believe it is! Otto is legendary here.
He never writes anything down.
He keeps it all in his head.
Otto! Coming up.
Your cheque, sir.
Wrong table.
We'd like menus, please.
Sorry.
I hate it when we get crowded.
I'm going to the john.
Order me a beer.
I thought you might surprise me and order a glass of wine.
I thought you might surprise me and button your yap.
I'd order him the crab cocktail but the irony would be lost on him.
They'll have trouble finding a buyer for this place.
Yes.
One old relic whose time has come to be put out of his misery.
Oh, no, Otto, I didn't mean you.
- Your menu, sir.
- Thank you.
- Lovely.
- Thank you.
- He's in the men's room.
- No, Otto! Leave it here.
Why do Americans always rush to tear things down? At home, we treasure antiquities.
You just bring in bulldozers.
- I agree with Daphne.
- I'll try to contain my amazement.
It's a crime to lose a landmark like this.
I mean look at it.
It's well-built, good structure.
It does have good bones.
It's in a very good location.
- If they only had valet parking.
- If they took down those awful curtains.
Knocked out these pillars.
You know I've always dreamed of owning a four-star restaurant.
What growing boy hasn't? - We'd need a new chef.
- The chef at Emilio's is unhappy.
Yes! The man's scungili is a cry for help.
Frasier, are you thinking what I'm thinking? I'm picking out china and sandblasting the wine cave.
It can be hard work - if you don't scald yourself or lop off a finger, you're gagging at grease fires, killing rats and brawling with labour racketeers.
Me auntie had a little tearoom.
You're not gonna do a dumb-ass thing like buying this place? With all respect, we're not neophytes in this field.
- We know food and wine.
- We have style, taste and refinement.
But you guys never think about the hard work or the long hours.
To you, owing a restaurant is fancy clothes, hobnobbing with friends and turning enemies away.
I hadn't even thought about that! Look, when I was a cop, there was this one restaurant in the corner.
In 10 years, it changed hands 20 times.
It was Ling Fung's Lychee Palace, then Tony's Meatball Hutch, then, A Taste Of Yorkshire - English food.
Big surprise - that lasted about five minutes.
Frasier, Dad has a point.
A lot of people have lost a lot of money in this business for one reason.
They pick the wrong name! Sure Niles, but I've got something very special.
I was thinking about it while Dad was talking.
Maison Crane.
You're right, it's too obvious.
