Alright, so there is good and bad with this review. I am giving 4 stars with hopes of going back and being able to change it to a 5 and because I don't want to ding the mom and pop shop of their 5 stars.
First things first...I tried it because of the 5 stars and that's it. It's in a strip joint with Chino Bandito and not exactly a high end area. It is new to the area also so that was intriguing.
Secondly when you walk in its clean and cute with the 50's style counter and black and white floors.
The food.
I would give it a 2 here I was disappointed in my meal. The saving grace was that I went with a friend who ordered something else and said his was better than mine (he tried both but isn't a share-er).
I love fries. They are seriously one of my top 5 favorite foods so when u tell me your fries are HOMEMADE I'm so in. I ordered the steak and shrooms fry plate (no bread just the innards on fries). And my friend got a Cuban with fries.
His sandwich according to him (he's a cook) was good but needed more sauce.
My steak and shrooms were seasoned well but there wasn't enough cheese for it to be done on top of fries. Period. There was also NO sauce. NONE. AS IN ZERO. so it was boring to say the least. We decided it needed a horseradish aoli to take it up a notch.
If u are going to put on the menu and talk to ur customers about the HOMEMADE fries they better be homemade. They were definitely frozen crinkle fries....my least favorite ever. I wasn't happy when I opened my to go box up and saw that. Also, no to go condiments or silverware were bagged up.
Drinks. Only soft drinks and lipton berry iced tea from the tap. I'd like a real iced tea.
Anyway I'll try again and we shall see if I can give a 5.
