The Quiet Woman

The last thing you'll find here is a quiet woman.

Drunk cougar central. I guess it's an ok place to get a drink if you don't mind the noise and drunk older people. Not first on my list of bars to go to for sure.

I didn't actually eat here, so my review is based on the bar scene here.  It's a 3.5 star in my opinion, but I'll round up for this review.  My friend from out of town and I tried to go to another bar, but it was closed, so we opted for this bar.  As soon as we entered, we observed a lot of what appeared to be cougars and older working professionals.  Being in Corona del Mar, I didn't expect a lot of diversity here, but the ambiance was nice, and the lighting was really good.  My friend and I sat at the bar and had a couple beers that were decently priced.  After some time I went to the restroom.  I was only gone for 1 minute when I came back and saw a woman in her 40's handing my friend her phone number.  My friend denied it, but I know what I saw.  How did she know we weren't a couple?  We weren't one, but it was possible!  Well, friends, if you like cougars, this is definitely the place to go!  This place has a good feel to it, even though the crowd is a bit older.  And who knows: maybe for once a woman will buy YOUR beer.

When we first stepped foot inside, the noise was already loud needing very close talking. And that was BEFORE the band started!!!! By the time our food arrived (my lamb had to be sent back for a little more time on the grill) we were shouting and actually just gave up trying to communicate. Way too small for drums, two guitars and amplified vocals. And didn't jive with $40 entrees. But rather than fight it the four if us jumped up and started dancing in the aisle! Turned out ok I guess but not as planned!!!
