| - The concept that this place intrigued me: All-you-can-eat tapas at a reasonable price ($19.99 w/ Hard Rock Players card). It was like a dream come true, especially after a long work week filled with boring salads and snacks.
On a Friday night, the place was pretty packed. A party of 3 had to wait around for 40 minutes before we were seated. It wasn't too bad since there were blackjack tables nearby to kill time (which is probably exactly what they'd want me to do).
We did our time in the casino, then got seated to our tables . Right away, we got started on the menu and placed our orders. They allow two orders, per person, per round. That pretty much made 6 different plates per round for us. In most cases, each serving usually came with enough for all of us to share evenly,.
Another offer to note is a pitcher of sangria for an extra $19.99, but is restricted to that one person who ordered it. Stuff was pretty strong there for my pal, so I snuck in a few gulps to help out with the pitcher. Strong stuff, indeed. I got a pretty good buzz going after having my share of "samples" from his pitcher.
The food itself wasn't that impressive. The menu definitely sounded more interesting than what you actually got. None of the flavored wowed me, though there were some ok stuff. Things were fickle - some stuff overly salty, some meats flavorless, other things just right.
The good:
Lobster Taquitos
Lettuce Cups
Meaty Balls
So Beefy
Octapussy
The okay:
Surf & Turf
Sea Bass Skewers
Tuna Sashimi
Cow Pie
Street Stand Fish Tacos
BBQ Oysters
The bad:
Poona Tuna
Jack & Coke
Grilled PB & J
All around inconsistent. Sometimes good stuff, other times, completely bland. In the end, completely stuffed - which was my main goal of the night anyway. Choosing wisely is all that'll make your night. Thing is, between my buddies and I.. we were in a bit of a disagreement in which ones we liked and didn't like. If you order all the right stuff, you could be leaving the place rather satisfied.
Out of the whole experience, nothing was good enough to get me coming right back for more. Place wasn't even half as good as Firefly. It's an interesting experience though, with a multitude of choices of all kinds. Johnny Smalls is a quantity over quality type of joint for me. I got my full belly, I had some alright flavors, and I enjoyed way too much sangria among friends. I could see myself coming back one day, but it won't be frequent.
