| - Brunch review only:
Brunch? More like late lunch. But it was Saturday, and they still had eggs on the menu.
Well, I FINALLY found a place who will give me GREAT Mexican food breakfasts. Enter, the Huevos Divorciados. OMG! These are fabulous. This is "Shock and Awe" for my eyes and tummy. First, not one but TWO, PERFECTLY cooked poached eggs. Not one but TWO, perfect Mexican sauces (the red and the green = guajillo meets enchilada sauce and mild tomatillo sauce). Shredded chicken, still moist. Black refried beans, no whole, but REFRIED. Real chunks of avocado (a WHOLE half). White corn tortilla - soggy but you can't get it all perfect. This thing is amazing. If you dare, get it! 5/5
Fried Chicken Egg Benedict - the chicken breading is gnarly fun but it was dry. Could use a little more "slap ya momma" or some cajun seasoning, but overall, it's decent. The biscuit is HUGE, but dry and no flavor. The real flavor comes from the perfect poached eggs, and the mustard dill bene sauce. The mustard dill sauce is pretty good, but not "traditional." So we got the bechamel sauce too - more "traditional" (think country gravy without sausage in it), BUT that one was cold. 3/5
Salty Dog (drink) - well, I like grapefruit, vodka, AND salt. So this is a winner for me. 5/5
Aperol Sour (drink) - kinda scared, but I've been meaning to try one of these egg white drinks, and I figured a bubble bar was the place. So this is gonna sound weird, but this thing tasted like that Orange Push-up popsicle thing from when I was a kid. Which normally sounds gross, but hey! this is BRUNCH! If you don't Screw Drive it, Mimosa it, then dang it! Aperol Sour it! The citrus actually went great with my huevos. 5/5
Ambiance - neat, clean lines. New retro feel. I know this use to be a supper club. I never went to it, so I can't compare. But I like clean, and this is clean. No one was there at 1pm, so no wait in line. We had a fancy U-shaped booth. The muzac was a little too loud 90s for me. 4/5
Waitress - was ok. Normally I don't comment on this, but she didn't know the menu at all. When asked a question, she took the menu from me... to read it back to me! What? Come on. At least B.S. me a little and ask a cook. Same thing happened with the drinks. I can't tell if this is her fault or the business'. Shouldn't all waiters try all the food, at least once? Or at least know what it looks like? Other basics weren't great either. We had to ask for coffee and water refills, even though we were the only ones in her section, and she walked up to our table a couple of times (for the answers to the questions) 1/5
Overall, we liked it and we will be back.
