Mangoo is used to eatting llama caserole, hilla soup and bat . I wouldn't base my dinner plans on his opinion.
while he may not be the be all end all of food criticism, i think he regularly eats at better places than you and me.
you're kidding right?
J Alexanders is terrible. what's funny is the service was outstanding when I was there, but the food sucked, we dropped $60 without blinking and the mood lighting was so dark, I could barely read the menu.
I'm a Saltgrass lover myself......but not the crappy one on 281.....it has to be the one at I-10/Huebner.
I work the menu with my wife at PF Changs and three of us eat well for about $20. I know it's only iceburg lettuce, noodles and chicken but I like the lettuce wraps with that sauce they mix up.
If you want a slightly less expensive version of PFC, try Golden Wok over on Wurzbach in between I-10 and Fredericksburg Rd. They also have decent lunch specials, even on weekends.
I think Landry's is overpriced myself. We went to the one on the riverwalk a few months back and I didn't find it much better than Sea Island.
Paesano's is good, but a bit too pricey for what it is.
I know pricey is subjective, but I also think Red Robin sucks. Yeah, you get free fries......hooray......your bill is still $50 for average burgers fries and cokes for the entire family. I'd rather have a Whataburger where i don't have to tip.
+1
I went with my wife about a week ago and spent $90 for a martini, Chivas + Sprite, 2 meals and 2 desserts. I would have rather gone to Chili's and spent $40 lol
I also didn't care for Paloma Blanca in Alamo Heights... overpriced Mexican food but I guess you're paying for the environment![]()
We went to Dave & Busters last weekend for my sister in laws bd bash and dropped more cash than I normally do. I just got the over priced burger. I had a good time but the food aint' all that but I don't think it is the food they are famous for.
Ruth's Chris - Best Steak quality that I have eaten, almost had trouble picking it up with a fork it was so tender. My only problem is it seems that there is no seasoning on it. To be honest, it was their Seared Ahi Tuna appetizer that really blew me away. WOW!
Aldino's - I hate recommending this place because I used to work there and the owners/mgmt were horrendous. Told me to give up two tables that I had just served dessert to (combined checks of $800) to serve one of the owners cousins, said I could "split the tip" with the person taking over - lol. This wasn't the only bad experience but just a great example of the way they do business. Anyway the food is freakin wonderful, great wine selection, they make great meats and their sauces can only be beat by one place.
Carrabas - Steak Marsala, and Chicken Bryan. Who the came up with these dishes, the flavor just doesn't stop!
Saltgrass - Used to work there to, and still love their food, range rattlers for an appetizer, and center cut filet medium rare please. They also have the absolute best ranch dressing, and their steak rub is the best seasoning for steak at a restaurant. Potato soup, mashed taters, wonderful.
Anyone been to that italian place in the quarry, is it any good?
J. Alexander sucks I dont know how anyone could eat there.
Oh, if anyone goes down to Port A, go to Hooks (right near Bernies where 361 intersects with the street that goes to the ferry. Order the Blackened Sashimi Tuna, and thank me in advance, while your eating it, and when you get back!
