I went last night for the USA vs Argentina game. I must admit I was disappointed at the pub. USA supporters started showing up in time for the pre-game show, and the Mexico vs. Paraguay game was on the big screen (along with sound). There were over double the amount of USA supporters vs. Mexico supporters. The pub should've changed the big screen and sound to the USA game and put the Mexico game on smaller screens. The Mexico game of course went into overtime, and the pub finally switched the tv channels during the Argentinian national anthem. This means we didn't get to see our fellow American Outlaws members (who traveled there) very well on television before the game (best opportunity for tv shots). Also note the Houston Dynamo front office made an appearance last night as well, giving away hats and advertising the next home game.
I tried the chicken fried steak ($8 for salad, chicken fried steak, & mashed potatoes on Saturdays), and the chicken fried steak was REALLY salty. The meat was also 1/3 the portion size of 59 Diner. Although the caesar salad was really good, the mashed potatoes were bland. The long island also had too much Coke (took an hour to finish instead of the usual 15 minutes). For what it's worth, the menu has a large variety for a pub, so I will keep trying other entrees. A friend liked their wings, and I'd consider her my go-to girl if I ever needed advice on where to get the best wings.
The real saving grace about last night was the excellent service. Waitresses kept coming by to check on us (without being overbearing), even to the point of refilling my glass with a pitcher of water I ordered for the table.
Last night we discovered the back "patio" which is more like a alley with a fence. It's a door in the back with an exit sign and a warning, "Alarm will not sound." The two tables are RIGHT next to the air conditioning units and garbage. It's kind of creepy, but I guess it works. If anything, the air conditioning units served as the basis of people taking pictures for a Finesse ad.
