We love Tousey! Have been for dinner many times and tried brunch today and it did not disappoint! Great, relaxed atmosphere. Little upscale while also laid back.

About 5 parking spots in front of the restaurant. Plenty of free parking in a lot about half a block away. Fried chicken dinner was as good as ever. 20 min wait but is well worth it!! Filet tip wrap was unbelievable. All American Bacon Burger was very good (including the crispy fries). Appeltini was on par. Waiter was friendly, attentive and offer suggestions. Wish we had room for dessert.

Other large tables were very loud. Would only expect that kind of noise at a sports bar. Food was great though.
