Fish tacos are pretty good. Food is a little pricey, but you do get a free show of some type. The night I ate there, they had a poem reader (not my cup of tea) but kudos to him for getting up there. There was also a young guy on a harmonica that was great. He joined in with the band and even sang a little. He was a real treat.
We used open table to secure a patio table but when we arrived it wasn't very busy. I told the waitress we were in a hurry and at first she told me we would never have our food in time. But then she told us we could get a few things quickly, and it was lucky that we wanted those things anyway. I ordered fish tacos and my friend had a Greek salad. Both of us left happy. Next time I'd like to give myself more time to enjoy the performances.
*Update to add more food items. We went there last night to grab a bite to eat and unfortunately they lose a star. When we arrived we were told that we could sit anywhere. so we grabbed a table away from the two children running amok on the lower patio. Busser was very attentive he filled our water at least once before we even saw our server. I don't blame her as I could tell she was the only one running around dealing with big parties. But I did see at least two other servers that didn't seem to be busy... one stood about 5-10 feet away from us talking with other employees. I know she was a waitress because she waited on me last time. Maybe she was off, but honestly it looks bad.
My friend and I ordered the Spiced Salmon Salad (very good) and the special BBQ Lamb Sliders (just ok) We weren't sure what to expect with BBQ and Lamb, but we figured we'd give it a try. It wasn't bad, but the flavors didn't seem to compliment each other. Probably wouldn't order it again. We also ordered the Peach Sangria and nether of us liked it. I still feel like this place is too expensive for what you get, especially since last night there was no performance artists. Instead there was a DJ, I wasn't into the vibe this go around. Next time I'm at Artifice/Cockroach Theatre and I'm hungry I think I'll try Mingo.
