So I have to say that I was pretty close to writing this place off, since the last handful of times we attempted to eat here, we had really bad experiences ....... Buuuuuut after today, the food here "totally redeemed themselves." (In true Lloyd Christmas voice from-Dumb in Dumber)
When my hubsman, said he was craving a burger the first place that came to mind, to NOT go to was Bombay's ... Buuuuuut we ended up driving towards DTVTA anyway... So needless to say, finally.
We walked in around 5:45p and there was maybe 2 other customers inside. The establishment itself is small from the outside including the outdoor patio on the side ... Buuuuuut when you walk in, this place is pretty huge. There's a stage immediately to your left for live music on some days, then on the complete left you find a bar counter and huge selection of handles. To the right, you have high top, bar booths tables.
Anyway, we decided to sit at the bar so we can watch some TV and kick it with the bartender, Anise. She was chill with just the perfect amount of bartender assertiveness. It was Happy Hour, so we ordered a mixture of things from HH and the main menu.
Being known for burgers that is exactly what we ordered. Now let's get to the meat and potatoes of this review, the food:
1) The Bombay Burger: add avocado-$14
3.5 stars; per husband the meat and condiments were fresh. The meat and bun ratio is bananas; the meat patty on this burger is ridiiionkulously thick and huge. The fries that came along with this dish were, okay. With the addition of the bacon and avocado to the burger, it made an overall great pair in the burger. Above, A-OK.-but definitely pricey.
2) Nacho Volcano Sliders: 2 mini versions of the main burger but for only $8.
I don't really like Brioche Buns because I think they get stale quick, but when you immediately get your food, don't let it sit or else it can get hard. The meat wasn't as juicy as the Bombay Burger, and also this burger was not spicy at all although many of the ingredients were different peppers combined. Saddened and felt like a waste for $8. (Maybe 2.6 stars.)
Spicy Mac N Cheese: mini bowl of greatness for only $4 (HAPPY hour) The only thing I can say 'bout this MNC is that it's a spicy creeper. At first I was like, this isn't spicy....then BoOm. Eeeeesssspicy, good spicy! I would totally order this again. (3.9 stars)
Chili Garlic Lime Wings, $0.50 each. HELLO?? Chili Garlic anything, heck yeah-plus super cheap?! Double heck yeah. These were the highlight of our dinning experience ... The wings are delicious, and being that they had a great price point -we sure went hard on the cheap, delicious wings tonight! (5 stars, and even ordered extras to take home!)
Let's just say, good things come to those who wait but the biggest question here is, will the food be just as delish at our second visit compared to this visit? Or were we just super hungry that anything would have tasted good to us, even dirt?! Watch out for another review for our next visit to see...
