| - This is my new favorite place! I have been 4 times now, and just simply love it. I mean I went on a Saturday and always myself there the very next day, its just addicting. Three out of the 4 times I've been I've sat at the bar, and the bartender, is great. He's always got suggestions, tells what he likes, his fav's what he's had and hasn't had and why. He's even got suggestions on the very cool all day (10:30-7pm) happy hour drinks on the Saturday/Sunday menu. What a deal!!
The food I've had is outstanding. One thing I'll never forget is the butterfish, that was melt in your mouth delicious! The wasabi mashed potatoes was not what I thought they would be so at first I was disappointed. I expected them to be spicy and creamy, but then I sat and thought about it again, and said wait, these are exactly what they should be, Mashed potatoes infused with wasabi, kind of like cucumber water. I believe I just had the wrong idea to begin with. The seaweed salad is a great starter, a huge portion and tastes like seaweed salad. This was my pre-Brunch visit.
So this past weekend I tried the Brunch. Saturday's visit was later in the day and I'm not much of a breakfast person, so I went with the Fish taco. Another fish done well, perfectly done and seasoned. Much to my surprise they give a little bit of what appears to be homemade salsa, that goes with it and is yummy, i found myself trying to figure out exactly what was in it so I could go home and duplicate. My boyfriend had the pork taco's, and I really enjoyed the pork flavor. I was expecting greenchilli ish type flavor, but it was very sweet barbequey. The black beans and rice aren't anything special, but not gross either. Then Sunday I tried the Ahi Eggs benedict. I was so scared, as I said I'm not a huge breakfast fan. It was awesome. Very very good flavor. It got cold real fast, but that's my experience with eggs..
Recommended Drinks:
I think I've tried at least 2 other drinks from their menu, but I can't remember what they were called...but these are the ones that are normally at my table:
Hurricane, Tiki Bastard if you like Gin, Blood Orange Martini, Mai Tai, and you must at least once try the Bloody Mary. I believe they make their own mix, it's got a bunch of horseradish bits in it, and is very different. Its definitely missing the worchestire, but was actually not bad with out it. I agree it isn't for everyone, but I had two.
