| - Large space/restaurant in the Promenade. Have outdoor patio seating, with little fire/flame heaters going to keep everyone warm. Inside had a ton of tables available, it was dark, and to me it had a mixed vibe, partially intimate, partially sports bar.
I came here for the fish tacos -- grilled mahi mahi. WOW!
Fish was cooked perfectly, not overcooked at all. Three pieces. The best thing was the green sauce that came with it. It was described as cilantro mayo, however, mine didn't look light enough or thick enough to have any mayo in it. At best, it seemed like a spicy cilantro blend. Regardless, it was addicting and I wish I had more of it. Served with rice and beans. But I didn't get beans, I got chili instead. Enjoyed the rice compared to the taco dish I had from Yolos in Planet Hollywood. The rice was well cooked, had some moisture and flavor to them as opposed to dry, crunchy bits of old or under cooked rice.
I have to agree with a few other Yelpers, regarding how long it took to get the food. I had one dish, and it took close to a half hour to get. The bartender who took my order said it would be out quickly, but even she knew it was taking awhile because she said kept saying it would be out soon, and then later on she said she would check on it.
I think everyone is nice, but the kitchen must be understaffed or very confused. By the time I got my order, the runner or bus boy came up to me and apologized, said that he confused my order and gave it to the other people before me who had also gotten takeout. What?! And I think that they had made that mistake, because on my receipt stapled to my takeout bag, were the words "RUSH RUSH RUSH". And honestly, fish tacos are not a hard order. Grill small chunks of fish, as opposed to having them breaded/deep fried. Throw on the red cabbage, which I assume is pre-sliced. Put everything no a corn tortilla and you're good to go! Sauce, chili, rice packaged on the side. At most, 5-10 minutes to assemble.
In the afternoon, past lunch hour rush (if there is even a lunch hour rush in a tourist place that has diners at all hours of the day), there were only a handful of diners, and most of that handful was at the bar area. They should not be backed up on orders, nor should a simple dish take so long to make.
However, the bartenders were friendly and attentive, aware that I was waiting, and consistently checked up on me. The runner was apologetic about the wait. The food was delicious, hence the 3 stars.
