My Review --- From an old burger joint, they made a nice setting. Open, lots of seating, decent service.

Wife Unit - 12 oz steak, mashed potatoes, and a caesar salad.
Me - Ahi Tuna, rice, Soup of the Day, and a house salad.

Both salads were quality. Mashed potatoes were done well, and the Tuna was just what I asked for - rare, like really rare, just 'threaten it with the grill'!!! Cool Although I'm still on the fence whether it was Yellow Fin or Albacore......

The rice, ---- not a fan. Asked about it, "So, that's not Saffron..... what's the flavor??" Chicken Broth?!? Way too sweet for just chicken broth. The Soup of the Day was Shrimp Bisque. Had a nice bisque 'flavor', but the 3 little shrimp (that were all WAY over-cooked) didn't make up for the absence of any 'trinity'.

But I did like the 'TX Road House' style warm breads and the abundant butter available for them. Made soaking up some of the bisque 'juice' worthwhile.

All in all, I gave it a 6. I'll try it again, because they did have a wide menu, but it wasn't totally up to par tonight.

And Zia, there were ZERO options for an IPA on the Beer List. Rolling Eyes They could make a fancy Blue Margarita with all sorts of flavors (which the Wife-Unit said was good, but was a 1-AND-Done!!!!), but just standard swill beers to choose from.

Thanks for the review. Was wondering about what it was like. Drove by there the other day twice and saw it packed both times. Might have to try it
