Came here with a friend last night and we were seated in the patio which was quite nice.
We shared 4 dishes:
1) Crispy Calamari
This was the first dish that came out for us. It wasn't what we expected as it was fried long pieces of calamari mixed with mango and pineapple strips in a peanut sauce. The first thing I tried was a pineapple and the peanut sauce and this may be a bit blunt, but it gave me the reminiscent taste of emesis. To me, it just didn't work together. The calamari was good though but honestly....I just forced that dish down.
2) Spanish Fries
My friend and I aren't big olive fans so when the waitress told us that there were kalamata olives in it, we asked her if we could exclude the olives from the dish. She said that the olives were chopped up but that there isn't much of an olive taste b/c the chorizo covers it up. That is a complete lie. The olive taste was SO strong! If you don't like olives...do not order this dish! Even when I was just picking the fries and the chorizo and trying to avoid the chopped olives, I still tasted the olives. The other thing was, that the fries were overfried...most of them were a dark dark brown. We basically left this plate unfinished.
3) Sparta Salad
This salad came topped with shredded nori and shredded fried sweet potato? The salad was fresh (albeit simple - I think it was just a cucumber salad) but it tasted good with the nori.
4) Thai curry shrimp
This dish came with 4 pieces of shrimp sitting in some curry sauce and 1 piece of naan. The curry was delicious but its such a disappointment that there's only 4 pieces of shrimp in the whole dish. For $17 dollars, that's a bit overpriced for some bread and 4 pieces of shrimp and sauce. The naan as well was thicker, not your traditional naan...this was more bread like.
Overall, my friend and I spent $70 (combined) at this restaurant including tax and tip. Both of our overall impressions was that it was overpriced and not worth the money. The food at best was mediocre but I don't see either of us coming back here again.
