| - Final Decision: You like steak, you like nachos, this is your place...
So me and the GF was super starving after having to miss our original dinner reservation in order to catch an awesome comedy show by Tracy Morgan, we were ready to eat a horse. But instead I chose the following instead. The GF mentioned this spot about the chef at this restaurant that seems to put odd combination of food items and married them together into an awesome tasting dish, so I was intrigued.
Got there here a lot of loud music and some odd small group of middle aged people attempting to dance next to the bar. Imagine a skinny white guy with no rhythm doing the jig, yea...that time 10 people. I'm glad the food was good.
Service: wonderful. Had a really nice waitress that took our orders quickly was extremely gracious even after we turned back the Sangria. I have to say, that I've had some sangria, and so far, this wasn't very good at all, especially an after taste of armpit. But the manager even came by, checked on the reason why it tasted so bad, and comped the drink and gave us something else. Really cool.
Food Ordered:
Grilled Lamb Meatballs - if you like lamb and you like hummus, this is your thing, very tasty and comforting. Meatballs were juicy and burst with middle eastern spices sitting on dabs of fresh hummus, diced tomatoes, olive oil and a thin pita bread slices. YUM YUM in my TUM TUM.
Blacked Skirt Steak - well seasoned and cooked to my specification, and cut into small bite-sized pieces, covered by two sunny side eggs, and sitting on top of a bed of chorizo hash and spicy cheddar cheese sauce. There are a lot ingredients and great amount of thought going into the dish and with every bite, you get a mouthful of flavor that bring you back to those old days when you got some nachos from the ice cream truck or your first nachos on a warm day at the ballpark, simply D-licious.
Attack of the First Surf and Turf - certified angus beef, with deep fried lobster claw, sandwiched in a soft roll with all the fixin's and served with asparagus fries. Sounds really great, looks awesome, but just tasted on par, nothing exceptions outside of the ingredients, but the GF did get full and had a smile on her face.
After a great night of comedy or even a day of gambling, this would casual spot provides new interesting twists on old favorites, I'd definitely would check this spot again the next time I'm in town, minus the sangria.
