The 2 for 1 drink specials seem to never end here but I am not complaining!! They just came out with a "revitalized menu" which includes wonderful pretzels as an appetizer (which I highly suggest you try)
The wait staff is attentive as they have always been in my experiace dining here. I wonder why they are rarely ever busy??? oh well best kept secret on this part of transit if you ask me. The food is always good.
Sit at the bar. They have free chips and salsa. Also, it is more likely that you have a server who has been here for more than a month (since bartender training usually takes several month in my experience).
Happy hour runs from 3-6 and then from 9-close. They have 1/2 priced appetizers from a select list. The list was almost all meat items, which didn't help me (as I am a vegetarian). Discount my reviews accordingly. ;)
In addition to the happy hour specials, they have 2-for-1 drafts, well drinks, margaritas, and house wines. The glasses are small (at just 10 ounces, so you are truly getting 20 ounces of a beverage instead of the typical 12 or 16). This will make you feel like a little kid who just realized the carnival games are rigged for you to lose. Seriously. Those basketball hoops are bent so far that they aren't even round anymore. Look at them from the side, and you will see what I mean! Annnnyway... the best deal is the wine, since they do seem to give you the full glass of wine.
We ordered the trio appetizer ($11.50). We picked the spinach dip, mozzarella sticks, and the chipotle chicken egg rolls. While I didn't try the rolls, for obvious reasons, the spinach dip was soooo salty! It wasn't even the chips, because we had those with the salsa. How do you mess up spinach dip? Mozzarella sticks were kind of cold.
All in all, just a meh experience. I felt bad for the rest of my party since it was kind of my idea to come here. Hopefully, my company was enough to make the evening worthwhile.
Though this dinner wasn't awful, it certainly wasn't great. My mom and I ordered off of the 2 for $20 menu. Got the chips and corn roasted guacamole which also came with a side salsa. This was the highlight of the meal. I love the thin, crispy chips and the guac and salsa were really good too! Real avocado, chunky even. Yum!
I ordered the Santa Fe Steak which came with corn salsa and jalapeno cheddar mashed potatoes. I'm a mild heat kind of person, mostly because I believe that too much heat robs the food of it's intended flavor. When dishes are too hot I can't properly taste all of the elements, which is part of what I appreciate about food. My dish was so spicy that it majorly detracted from the flavors of the food. The steak, a 6 oz. sirloin looked like a hockey puck and half of it was all tough gristle but the other half was okay and cooked to medium- I asked for medium rare. Disappointing. The potatoes and corn salsa followed suit. Meh.
My mom got the chicken crispers. They were terrible. Crispy was more like mushy. And the chicken wasn't really trimmed of all of the fat which is gross to bite into.
Overall, I would be more inclined to order a margarita and a couple of appetizers over a meal. I've only eaten here a couple of times, but I've never really liked it. Though their chips are great! But, this is a chain so my expectations were low anyway.
As chains go, this one is a very weak link. For a similar price you can do better at Red Robin, Uno's, Tully's, etc. And this location has lowered in quality tremendously over the past two years. It used to be an OK place to stop with the kids, have a beer with dinner, etc. Their menu has shrunk; there's no more blackened catfish and many of the other slightly more interesting entrees have disappeared.
On my most recent visit, the service was horrendous, with servers just walking by and grabbing plates without asking whether we were done with them. The wait staff was like the blind leading the blind, with a trainee learning the ropes from the plate-grabber.
