38 degrees is a craft kitchen and bar that serves a variety of delicious foods and beers.
What I Ordered:
Garlic Parmesan Fries ($8)
38 Degrees Wings - Chipotle Honey ($16)
Two Meat BBQ Tray with Beef Brisket, Pork Spare Ribs, Mac & Cheese, and Coleslaw ($25)
Cali Creamin Taster ($2.5)
Agua De Sandia ($13)
Food: The Garlic Parmesan Fries were so crispy and full of garlic flavor. If you love the taste of garlic, this starter is for you. The garlic flavor is very strong as is, and they also give you a garlic aioli to add an extra layer of garlic flavor to the dish. The fries themselves were cooked well, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. They definitely do not skimp out on the Parmesan or Garlic, so I would definitely give this a try!
I also got the Chipotle Honey 38 Degrees Wings, which were solid. They were sweet and a little bit tangy, definitely not on the spicy end of other chipotle honey wings I've tried. I usually don't like Blue Cheese, but the Blue Cheese complemented the wings well here. The chicken wing itself was good quality, which I've learned to appreciate bars using good quality chicken for their wings.
The Two Meat BBQ Tray came with Beef Brisket and Pork Spare Ribs, and I chose Mac & Cheese and Coleslaw for my sides. You get to choose from the four options they have including: Brisket, Pastrami, Shoyu-Pineapple Pulled Pork, and Pork Spare Ribs. The meats were good, but I would be open to trying the other dishes they have available for my next time! I absolutely LOVED the Mac & Cheese, it was a three cheese blend with bacon bread crumb bits on top. The pasta was cooked to perfection, and the cheese blend worked well with the bacon bits. They serve Mac & Cheese as a Main Dish menu with your choice of meat on top, and that is definitely what I will be getting during my next visit!
For drinks, I ordered the Cali Creamin, which is my personal favorite beer. I love that they have a taster option of just 5 ounces, so I can try small amounts of the 38 beer options they have! I also got the Agua De Sandia, and they do not skimp out on the alcohol here. After the first sip, I was able to tell that this was going to be a good night :)
Service: All of the staff, including servers and bartenders, were quick and friendly!
Ambiance: A chill place to hang out or watch the game!
