It was St. Patrick's Day, and I was looking for a non-festive bar or restaurant, one that wouldn't be packed with the drunk noisies. I know, I know, I'm a total party pooper... hey, I'm not arguing with you. So our first stop was the Roaring Fork. I was going to get my St. Patty's green on with some green chili mac & cheese. Unfortunately, the happy hour areas were stuffed to the gills, so off we went to Fashion Square.
We were headed towards Kona until we saw the over-flowing patio, and decided that happy hour wasn't going to be so happy there either, so we opted for Wildfish instead. I've never been to Wildfish, so I was looking forward to trying a new place.
We were able to get a table right away in the bar and their happy hour specials looked pretty good. $5 cocktails and $4 off all appetizers. I ordered the pomegranate pink grapefruit margarita. It came on the rocks without any salt or sugar, and was yum-mee! We also split the shrimp pot stickers and the calamari. The pot stickers were pretty great, with a good amount of shrimp in each one. The calamari was also really good. They're served with red peppers and peanuts, with a spicy sauce drizzled on top.
By the time we left, I was stuffed and happy and only paid $26 + tip. The service was great and efficient, and they have a pretty good sized menu. The patio looked really great too- I'd love to eat outside next time I'm in for a non-happy hour meal.
