My friends and I came here on a Saturday night at around 7:45 PM. I was super impressed by their lush interior, night club-esque vibes, and winding staircases. The dining room/bar area was complete with large windows, high-top seating, and large TVs.
We came here for drinks (I got their strawberry margarita / $13) and quick bites, so we ordered the Loco Nachos ($14) to share. It consisted of lettuce, olives, jalapenos, a cheese blend, sour cream, and pico de gallo. I also tried their grilled mushroom taco ($6) which consisted of generous amounts of mushroom slices, pickled onions, shaved cabbage slaw, truffle crema, and spices.
The nachos appetizer wasn't worth the price tag. I was hoping for warm, gooey, and plentiful cheese but instead it was dry and not well dispersed. It did have lots of fresh toppings which I appreciated! The grilled mushroom taco was pretty good as expected. :- ) It was overflowing with fillings and very nicely presented. I tasted hints of cinnamon and lots of spice with each bite. The truffle crema and the spicy pickled red onions were the stars of the show. :- ) The only downside was the overly salty mushroom strips. My strawberry margarita was just okay- I've definitely had better. My friends didn't really like their drinks either (the coconut margarita and the Minted cocktail).
Despite the bustling environment, all the servers were very kind and efficient. A+ service! I'm not sure if I'll be back but I'm glad I gave Scorpion Bar a try!
