Yay! I'm a fan!
WOW! This is a secret hidden gem! Entering O'Aces bar my hubby asked me if I was sure that this location is inside of the bar :) yep :)
I found this place on yelp and was TOTALLY surprised that when I checked in 12/30/12 we could get a free specialty burger with the purchase of an entree! That worked great because that is what we were going to order anyway!
We started off with a Caesar salad and we split that it was very good and BIG. If you just want a big Caesar it could be an entree or if you want to split for two sides it will def be enough. Not too much lemon it had more of a black pepper spiciness vs a fishy or lemony flavor.
We had also ordered a soft pretzel for an app but they were out of them :( we have to go back just for that! :)
I already knew I was getting the salmon with chive oil on a bed of tabbouleh (which I spelled wrong on my photo, lol) and cous cous! I was not disappointed! Perfectly cooked and fresh the salmon was yummy. The chive oil was a perfect compliment and the tabbouleh/ Israeli cous cous is an idea I'm stealing to make at home ASAP! YUM!
Now for hubby's burger...WOW...Mad Max would def be proud of this burger. As soon as he took a bite a piece of short rib fell out...I immediately grabbed it with my fork and it could have possibly been the best red meat I have ever tasted in my life! I'm not a fan of red meat but I swear I wanted to order another entree and make it the short ribs with risotto...I guess I already know my visit #2's order :) I tried a sweet potato fry and loved it. Not too sure about the powered sugar part on top but I def loved the fries, could ask for the minus sugar part. Not really sure why hubby ordered those when he does not like sweet potatoes so that was a bonus for me ;D
The chef came out several times to ask us how every was! Very nice! The male server was VERY nice. We were the only customers in the place at the time but wow the service was VERY good.
We def support local businesses and hope they stay around. With no signs outside or inside I'm scared! (*bites nails* I need more than a bite of those short ribs)
We will def go back! Yummmmmmmmmm. I can taste the short rib now as I type!
