Tabu

I had a blast dancing here on a Friday evening and I don't dance in public, but I danced my ass off due to the safe environment and quality of DJ.

Also, the food served after restaurant hours during nightclub hours is amazing and not to be confused with typical 'drunk food.'

Very clean atmosphere and not weird like some nightclubs that I avoid like the plague.

This place is awesome!
The happy hour is unbeatable.
We went into Tabu the first day we moved to Ashland. The bartender Brian, gave us advice on where to work and where to rent (all of which was accurate) plus he mixed a solid cocktail. The service was awesome and he was truly helpful in all aspects.
Six weeks later we went in again and he remembered us, which was super cool. Not just our names, but our whole story. He asked us how job hunting was and if we had found a place to live etc... Wish I had that kind of memory.
Everyone who works there is friendly and the service is prompt.
I recommend the quesadilla and spicy margarita. Delicious!!!

I thought I was going to get some nice Mexican food in the restaurant portion, that turned out not to be the case.

Although the food was affordable, it was very bland for being Mexican food.

Also the service was mediocre. My friend and I had a server who although he tried to be accommodating, looked like he was less then thrilled to be there and took his time with us even though there was one other group in the restaurant.

The decor of the restaurant needs some updating. The seats were cracked with the stuffing coming out, the walls need to be cleaned and re-painted. I did not feel comfortable in how the dining area looked over all.

Overall, I tried to give this restaurant a shot, hoping it would be a hidden jewel, but it just seemed to disappoint.

I think it has a great location and if the restaurant gets some TLC it could be a great spot.
