The Matador

Cruisin' the Ave, I wandered in here for some lunch. I chatted briefly at the bar with the 'tender himself and ended up getting the Braised Carnitas. It was rather good but not as flavorful as I thought.

It was a cool afternoon to just chill, watch the screen and knowing the sun is outside, waiting for you.

Side note: I also had the random fun opportunity to chat with a customer next to me who was apparently a lil drunk and she was debating with us over to drive or walk to sober up a bit. Those 15 minutes were, uhm, special.

What a cool place!  Just had the happy hour nachos and a cold Stella.  Both were fabulous.  I've had nachos just about everywhere and these scored very high marks.  A few jalepenos would have made them perfecto!

I love this place but the waitress today, Nikiole, was MIA. She needs retraining! Sorry, and I call 'em as I experience them. No notice it was happy hour, way late on chips n salsa, never asked if wanted a 2nd drink, nor asked us how the food was. Strike 5!
