| - I met up with a friend for lunch at Corbin's, on a recent day off. I've been a couple times before . Our original plan was to go to Bombero's, but they have closed ( insert heavy sigh of sadness ). Corbin's was a nearby suitable substitute.
The place was pretty empty, and we were seated quickly. It's a modern looking restaurant, clean and spare in decor.
Our waitress was friendly, although a little slow with the drinks once we ordered (did I say it was empty?). Overall, service was fine.
As always, the food was excellent. I had the fish tacos with cole slaw, and they were about as good as you will find. On previous visits, I've had halibut, salmon, and salads.
I find the drinks to be on the high-priced side- a $10 cocktail or glass of wine mid-afternoon? Really? IMHO, Corbin's does have a high quality product to offer, but there's enough pricing competition out there that I admit to second guessing Corbin's as a regular lunch option.
Sooo... I'll wrap up this review with this advice: Go to Corbin's. It's an independent neighborhood establishment, and a welcome addition to the Sunnyslope area. You will get a quality meal or appetizer, and not be disappointed with your selection. If you are on a tight budget, check out their website and plan to visit at Happy Hour, to get acclimated.
