| - We came here to see the Jones vs Rampage UFC Fight on a Saturday night. I had called earlier to see what the cover was, and they said $40; when we got there however, we learned that wasn't the entire picture.
What it really was:
$40/person = standing only
$75/person minimum = a barstool
$250/minimum = a table (I guess however many you can cram in at your table)
Since it was only the 3 of us, we figured we'd spend $75/person on drinks and food anyway, so we chose that. But it would've been nice to have been given the entire picture on the phone when I called.
The place was practically dead when we got there at 7-ish (doors opened at 5, fights started at 6). There were a couple people at a table, a couple at the bar, and a few at the long table in the middle of the place that had seating on either side. TVs of varying sizes were all over the place, and visible from every angle of the room.
We were immediately waited on, so we placed our drink orders. When those came, we added some food:
Yellowtail Sashimi ($19) - 5 impossibly thin slices of fish, topped with a slice of jalapeno, a leaf of cilantro, and ponzu. The jalapeno was way too spicy for this tiny fish portion, so it completely overpowered the dish. And the fish portion was way too tiny for the price! Meh.
Fried Calamari ($19) - a basket of lightly battered and fried hot rings, with wedges of lime, and a sweet chili sauce for dipping. This was better than the sashimi experience - the calamari was perfectly cooked, and yum in the dipping sauce.
Bobby Baldwin Burgers ($28) - this trio of mini sliders was the best thing! Mini brioche buns with thick mini medium rare patties, topped with cheddar, grilled onions, and a pickle slice, served with a cone of parsley-tossed fries, and a darling little jar of ketchup plus mini spoon. Had this been the first thing that we ordered, we'd have gotten more. The price was a little high, but it was yum!
Even as the main event started, the place was barely half full. Several people came in just to see Jones vs Rampage and stood, so I'm assuming they paid $40/person for about 15 minutes' viewing time/standing space. A little crazy, if you ask me!
The fights went fast tonight, so we ended up staying here for only a couple of hours, and yes we easily spent the required $75/person. The ambience was low key, so I'd come back here again - but only if the cover and minimum were lower.
