| - I stopped in here to sample their menu at lunchtime--mostly because they had a Groupon Now! promo, and also because I've passed this place quite a few times while driving around--and was surprised to find this place.
The place doesn't look that spacious on the outside, but when you walk in, there's a bar area complete with tvs, as well as another room where there are projection screens and even more tables. The tv setup at the bar has 3 flat screens on one side, and 3 flat screens on the other side. In the other area with tables and projection screens, there are three flat screens framing each side of one o the projection screens, so that there are 6 tvs framing a single screen.
After looking around, I ended up sitting in the bar area, since that's where all of the patrons were hanging out. I debated about sitting at a table, but realized that I'd probably get faster service by sitting at the bar. It seemed to be a pretty happening place for lunchtime--roughly 12 people and one friendly bartender. The majority of the patrons were playing on the video poker/blackjack machines, drinking, smoking, or watching tv, while there was only one other person eating something.
It took me a few minutes to figure out what to get, but I finally decided to go with the fish tacos. They were three tiny ones, made of cod, with a salsa and other sauce drizzled on top, sitting on a bed of greens and flour tortillas. Pretty tasty and the sauce wasn't too overpowering and they seemed to put just the right amount on the tacos. Next time, though, I'm gonna have to get the steak or ceviche...decisions, decisions. To be honest, for the prices that they offered and the selection/variety (given the type of establishment), I was pretty impressed.
I've yet to find a place that bears any resemblance to Cheers ("where everybody knows your name"), and this place seems to be it. I think that I was one of two people that the bartender didn't know on a first-name basis. There are quite a few regulars that come here, and I must say that if I find myself in the area again, I'm definitely willing to try out more of their menu.
The only reason that I had to deduct a star was due to the service. I would have given this place 3.5 stars, but unfortunately can't give a 1/2 star, so I rounded up. Yes, I realize that I didn't walk into a restaurant (it's a bar/pub), but then again I do appreciate good service--not being ignored and attentiveness.
