Cibreo Italian Kitchen

16 May, 2014 | Italian | By: Mrs Z

We had, on numerous previous occasions, tried to get into Cibreo (always pre-theatre Thursday) and had always been told that they were completely booked.  I even tried making reservations 3 days in advance and was shut out.  So on this particular night, after calling 3 weeks ahead, we finally were able to get reservations. Oh […]

Barley House

14 September, 2010 | Sports Bar | By: Mrs Z

Just another typical sports bar.  It was “supposed” to be an Irish pub, but they had JUST changed menu day before (bad timing on our part), so consequently a lot of menu items that they had previously featured were no longer available.  It was ok, but when you think you’re going to an Irish Pub; a […]

Zocallo

22 December, 2009 | Mexican | By: Mrs Z

An excellent Mexican bistro.  Not quite as authentic as our regular neighborhood Mexican place, but outstanding food and great service. The lobster quesadilla was amazing, but unfortunately it was a “special”, so unless they keep it by popular demand, not likely to find it as a regular menu offering!

Nauti Mermaid

27 January, 2009 | Bar | By: Mrs Z

The epitome of a neighborhood BAR!!!  Wouldn’t mind drinking in there, but don’t think I’d ever return to EAT!  This place has been around many years and seems to draw a crowd, but I’m betting that most are serious drinkers.  Remember, our primary goal is FOOD and with that in mind, this place wasn’t going […]

Fat Fish Blue

13 January, 2009 | Seafood | By: Mrs Z

Loved this place.  It was really good – both service and food were terrific- neat menu and awesome cornbread.  Found out as we were cashing out that they were closing for good the following week (boo).

Water Street Grille

30 December, 2008 | Bistro, Steak / Seafood | By: Mrs Z

The interior decor was very nice, but unfortunately the food was only average.  Service was average as well.  Only advice – don’t order the pot roast!

Mallorca

29 April, 2008 | Fine Dining, Spanish | By: Mrs Z

A fabulous Spanish restaurant.  As long as it has been around, it’s surprising that we had not been before.  Both the food and service were outstanding and the $$ very reasonable, considering it would definitely fit in the “fine dining” category.  Their menu offered something for every taste, with nothing being too out of the […]

Waterhouse

11 September, 2007 | Bistro | By: Mr Z

This was pretty good, but mostly an upscale burger, salad and sandwich place.  The service was really good, but the food was just so/so.

Flannery’s Pub

17 July, 2007 | Irish, Sports Bar | By: Mr Z

The downtown Irish sportsbar where ALL the after-work crowd goes!  It was good, but lacking in authenticity.  The Irisih stew didn’t really have that homemade taste to it.  Maybe we expected too much, but it really was just a sports bar.

XO

Unbelievably outstanding – exceptional food and service.  Can think of anything negative at all about it.  They absolutely get 5 stars!!  Would highly recommend!
