Nix's Mate

Awesome improvement from previous menus/themes.  Pretty cool menu - the fried chicken with waffle was very good.  Excellent service and music playing was a great Pandora selection.

We went for dinner before the club started and loved it. The waitress seemed new, she didnt remember to bring our drinks (20 minutes later we got a hold of her) but from there it got better. We split the lobster caramel and wish we had more, little pricey but it was very good - you wont find something like that anywhere else. MUST ORDER. We split the steak and shrimp and it was amazing. The flavors and the chimichurri sauce was a perfect touch. Great place give it a try before 10pm if you dont want to club with 21 year olds.

We had a party of 8 for two birthday's on Saturday. The food was good and plentiful. Their portions are huge in comparison to what other hotel restaurants will serve. Our favorite appetizer were the mac and cheese bites. Some folks from our group do not do cheese but even they had to agree those were damn good. For dessert the creme brulee was really yummy, still warm in the center, totally hit the spot. Our waitress was really sweet, very welcoming, and let us go into their William Fly room to take a girls shot. It came out so nice!

For drinks the pear something (I forgot the name but it had st. germain in it) and their moscow mule's were refreshing! We ordered a round of shots and it basically came out as double shots, we had to toast twice to finish it. :)

It's definitely a good place for large/small groups for dinner. And you can pretty much stick around for the real party. The bar gets pretty packed, and the music gets louder. They spin a really fun blend of old hiphop and top 40's.

I had to knock off one star. I'm assuming because it's in a hotel it can't get too loud, but they kind of started to close down at 12:30PM. :( bummer.
