| - This is a review of their Prime Time happy hour which is available Mon-Fri from 4:30-6:30pm and 9pm 'til closing. All items are $3.50 except for the oysters which are $1 each.
We sampled the following 5 items:
KOBE BEEF SLIDERS: bacon, lettuce, tomato and pesto aioli
FILET MIGNON CAPRI SANDWICHES: imported mozzarella di bufala, tomato and basil with a balsamic aioli
MINI BROILED CRAB CAKES: mango salsa and chipotle tartar sauce
VEAL PARMIGIANA SLIDERS
POINT JUDITH CALAMARI FRITTI: cornmeal dusted and tossed with lemon and cherry peppers
Overall the serving sizes were good, especially for the price. Our favorites were the filet mignon and kobe beef sliders, three per order. The veal parm was pretty tasty, but nothing special. The remaining two items were mediocre. The calamari batter was a bit too thick and soggy. The three mini crab cakes were very small and consisted of mostly filling and little meat.
When my wife, an unapologetic diet Coke fiend, ordered her favorite beverage, they brought her a diminutive 6oz bottle with a cup of ice. Now $3.50 for a small soda with no refills is pretty steep, but I guess that's where they make some money after giving you a good deal on the food.
Additional menu items which we did not try this time:
ULTIMATE CHICKEN STRIPS: panko and parmesan battered with sweet and sour chili sauce
PRIME CHEESE STEAK: prime New York steak, caramelized onions and Vermont cheddar cheese
OYSTERS ON THE HALF SHELL
JUMBO SHRIMP COCKTAIL
Will we return? Probably, at some point. We'd like to try some of their other items, but we'll stick with our faves and ice water next time around.
