I met a cougar at a bar in Claremont. She was married, so when we decided to hang out, it had to be somewhere we wouldn't get caught. We picked Tribute because I really liked the ambiance. Good lighting, and a nice open space. My date especially liked that she could escape through the back if necessary.
Ryan, the bartender greeted us and right off the bat, we felt welcomed. I started with the Ramble on cocktail, which was balanced, refreshing and absolutely delicious. Ryan had a great presence and excellent customer service. Didn’t even flinch when my date ducked behind the menu every time someone in a polo walked in.
The lady friend, who sat two seats over, had a Peppers & Peaches IPA from Claremont Craft. I grew up in the Inland Empire, so it was nice to to see their beer in Hollywood. She didn't cheers me because she said it looked sus.
We both ordered the Fried Chicken Sandwich. It was absolutely delicious and I gobbled it down in seconds. The breading was perfectly seasoned and the chicken was tender, the pickled onion and slaw took it to another level of delicious.
I will absolutely be back in a month when her husband is out of town again. Will update my review when I enjoy some more of their delicious menu! ... and maybe try dessert this time, if we can risk staying that long.
