"Happy Hour Review"
OK, it's gotten out of hand. I can imagine a time when Encore's happy hour was a lesser-known thing and a great way to unwind after work or before a show. In fact, I still like the pork sliders, but "Blue Bar" has jumped the shark.
I've gone twice, once on a Tuesday and once on a Friday. Both times there were more people than the staff could accommodate. The Scotch egg, charcuterie board were lack luster at best and the Tuna Croquette Romesco was like a canned-tuna-salad paste in a fried ball.
It's hard to get a seat, and if you do, don't expect to be served, but if you are, don't expect them to be nice.
