| - This location has been open for three years already? Wow, time flies! I live very close by and drive past here practically every day, yet this is my first visit, although I've been to other locations during this time.
I met an old friend here for drinks on a Saturday evening. As expecxted, it was very busy but we managed to get a table near the bar. Very nice atmosphere, typical of an upscale bar but quite noisy with lots of chatter and music.
My friend's drink of choice was Caesar and I had beer. Although we had both had dinner already, after a couple of drinks, we needed something to nibble on. The Street Food Tacos, for only $3.00 each, sounded like the right thing. One chicken, one fish.
It took a little while but the tacos finally arrived. The presentation was a little confusing. We couldn't tell which one was which and the were served on some kind of foil wrapped vessel. Was this the Street Food part of the dish? How come the table next to us had a nice looking stainless steel taco holder?
Instead of sharing, we decided to just choose one. My friend got the chicken and said he hoped my fish had more flavour. First bite into it, I ended up with an inch-long bone stuck in my lower gum. Ouch! After getting over the shock and pain, it wasn't bad. The flavours were subtle but good.
Nice place, okay food, but the service could have been better. Our server was a bit abrupt. The main reason why we didn't share is because we had no cutlery or even napkins. That loud music I mentioned earlier? It got even louder when a DJ started playing. I'll probably come back but it won't be at the top of my list of local joints.
