| - Came here on a last minute adventure with friends a few nights ago. The restaurant itself IS connected to Sapphire strip club, but don't be frightened they are completely separate.
Loved the interior, very intimate. Dark lighting, red walls, rounded booths, old school, but still classy. You could come here for a date (LOL) or simple as we did to casually enjoy the food. They have large flat screens all over the restaurant & they play pretty good music (specifically, they had a Michael Jackson concert playing that night).
The service was prompt w/ chips and two kinds of salsa. Green medium, I'm assuming it's a green tomatillo base and a red hot, tomato or Chili base. If you're into hot foods, both aren't even that hot. Friends got a michelada & a Patron silver margarita. He originally wanted a special drink, but the server was polite enough to ask what was in it because the bartender wasn't sure & suggested a different drink because they didn't have the exact ingredients (no simple syrup, but agave syrup FYI). That's a plus one in my book instead of the bartender whipping up your favorite drink the wrong way, & having it taste bad.
Friends ordered a shrimp appetizer with 4 pieces of bacon wrapped shrimp that was deep fried with a filling, not sure was it was, but it was good. And it came with a creamy, chipotle sauce. Hubby & I ordered a sizzling queso plate with chorizo that was topped with pico de gallo, grilled peppers & onions. Tortillas came on the side & we got a mixture of flour & corn. It's pretty much like a deconstructed quesadilla, but it was honestly so good (especially if you love cheese!).
Hubby ordered the Mexican burger which came with a potatoes that were somewhere in between a French fry & a potato chip. They would have tasted better with a little seasoning. His friend & I ordered a carne asada burrito, SO GOOD! He just had meat, cheese, if I recall & I had everything in it: pico de gallo, guacamole & cheese. And my friend had the chicken burrito everything in it as well. All the burrito plates came with this cilantro rice that was so good! The rice is so simple, but you just can't put your finger on what the seasonings are that make it so good!
For dessert we had the Yelp check-in flan. SO DELICIOUS! And just the right size, too because it's so rich & flavorful.
So glad we decided to come there that night. The food was delicious, the company was great. Can't wait to go back!
Oh and BTW, locals get 20% off on Mondays!
