| - I've been meaning to write a review for SanTan for so long, just got so busy with school oops!!! I held a birthday dinner here in August on a Saturday night and the staff pulled it off wonderfully!!!
First of all, SanTan is very very busy! I saw this in previous reviews so I showed up an hour before everyone to secure a spot on their waiting list (since they refused to take reservation for rush time on weekends). I was told the wait for going to be 2-3 hours... I was pretty frustrated. But people was already on their way and so I just decided to tough it out
WE GOT SEATED IN AN HOUR! Woo hoo! SanTan saved my birthday dinner and accommodated a group of about 20 hungry students! We sat at a large long table at the very end of the restaurant and I couldn't have asked for a better location to seat all my friends together!!!
ATMOSPHERE:
+Hip, modern, clean. Very lively almost to the point of noise pollution hahaha . The moment I walked in, I understood the rave on Yelp and why this place has such a long wait on weekends.
FOOD:
+the beers were so so great! I had the cider and my boyfriend got something else on tap. A couple friends got the beer sampler and they loved it.
-American mule was oooo-kay, I wouldn't get it again
+chicken pot pie: decent size, tasted pretty decent 3.5/5
+southwest fried chicken: i was sooooo excited to try this, it looked A-MA-ZING in pictures; but I thought it was pretty rich/salty in person. I did enjoy the left-overs the next day since the portion was HUGE
-we only had one waitress for our large party, she was soooo busy I felt really bad... I wish next time they can send out more than one waitress for such large parties?
Seriously SanTan, thanks for accommodating my large birthday party!!! My friends had a great time and enjoyed the food so much, many of them came back with their friends and families!
