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'!!! 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. 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 |
