    Boozy Bradley
    Jenny T.

    Came here to watch a friend play live music. So happy to discover this little neighborhood cocktail bar. While the interior is small, the decor is classy and inviting. The wait staff was on point..,friendly, attentive, and knew their stuff. And the cocktail menu was varied and original. I started with the Boozy Bradley and finished with the purple rain, both were great and presentation was delightful, I also really appreciated the cocktail's music themed names. My husband had the Dude looks like a Lady which was a bourbon concoction that was presented in a coupe glass. Looked feminine, but drank masculine! While we did not have dinner while there, I did enjoy the palomino oil appetizer, a tapenade that was delicious. The server was gracious enough to sub almond crackers for me since I am GF. I was torn between the third cocktail and the homemade gelato, chocolate peanut butter.I ended up with the gelato, which I don't regret. But I will have to return to try a number of other cocktails that were catching my eye. His is clearly a local hangout, where everyone know each other, but they were very welcoming and friendly. Can't wait to return. 5 stars for drinks and service! The only reason I am not giving 5 stars is because I can't comment on dinner.

    Their food is so amazing! It's very small portions and more of snacks but incredible. The flatbread was my favorite!

    We had a MARVELOUS experience!…read more My bf, his mom and myself passed by this place on a couple of walks. I've also marked it as a place to visit. It is part of the Staybridge Suite hotels here and this hotel in general, is always packed! We finally know why! The hotel inside is beautiful -- woodwork and a cozy ambience! The 5 x 5 bar & bistro is new. What it was before was an old theater. Matthew was a one-man show with two ladies helping him with carrying the done orders to the tables. It was actually quiet on a Wednesday when we had went. Only 3 tables occupied. We missed happy hour and settled on the regular menu. I had the chicken tenders (4-pc) with lemon pepper seasoning (oh my -- this was delicious!) along with sweet potato waffle fries. I also got the hummus plate -- fresh veggies and the hummus had feta cheese and olive oil too, yummy! My bf had the pepperoni pizza with cheddar cheese and topped with green onions. I had a taste of it and it was pretty good! My bf's mom had the fish burger with a side salad. Matthew was so kind and made a mental note of the orders. He even remembered my bf's mom saying 'no cheese' and he doubled checked with her after looking at the fish burger. Real nice guy and his service with the ladies was warm and delightful! They're forming an events room hall that will be done soon that used to be a pool area (so yes, no swimming pool anymore). They also have a nice patio area with long chairs and a nice mini bar/grills in the middle. I also had a limoncello cooler and my bf's mom has red wine too. We'd come back again!

    In short Great deals on great drinks, food is really solid,…read moreand the setting is nice and friendly. Only drawback is that the hours are limited. In long Lately we've been seeking out places that are literally quieter--less volume on the music, more space between the tables, and so on. I'd been wanting to check out 5x5, anyway, since it's the only spot around with an exactly perfect rating score. It looked like it'd fit the bill for a low-key place, and off we went. We came in shortly after they opened on a Saturday (4:00 PM). You're in a larger business-traveler hotel here, aimed at Boeing and Boeing-sub folks traveling for work. The building looks kinda generic from outside, but there's plenty of parking, and the lobby has a high-ceilinged atrium vibe for sure. Nice floor tiles, nice carpet, tasteful furniture. Everything's in perfect shape. You don't feel the lounge vibe right away, but there's a gigantic fireplace ahead of you, warming both sides of the room from the middle. Around that, there are lots of sturdy, shiny tables under the lofty ceilings. Off to the side, there's a little lounge area, then another one. Everything in the lounge is bar-height seating, and there are a few flatscreens, probably showing the game. Most folks are in here, sitting around the bar in the middle of the room. We posted up at a table just outside the lounge. Lindsey was behind the bar, and cheerfully answered every single question we had about food and all their cocktails. She's super friendly and makes a great drink for sure. She seems to have a bunch of regulars who aren't staying at the hotel, which is a great sign, no doubt. We checked out the warm pretzel--such a decadent treat. The waffle fries (and especially the aioli that came with them) were awesome. The pizza was a great choice; we added pickled onions to the Speedway. The crust could be a little crisper but we took home what we didn't finish and it's great here, too. Service on food and drinks was really quick. The cocktails here can be really creative, and there are lots of classics with house twists on the recipe. They even have a pisco sour they've tweaked--that's a fair bit of work for a bartender to make mid-shift. We got 5 great drinks and 3 nice plates of food for $96, and I don't think we even ordered anything from the HH menu. This is a very easy place to add to the rotation.

A/C was running high as it was a super humid and hot Saturday. The restaurant is one big open space with large, comfortable booths lining the walls and a selection of tables in the center. This would suit large groups, too. There's a small outdoor patio area with umbrella covered seating. They had World Cup games on and decor to match. THE FOOD: We immediately had warm, thick tortilla chips and house made red salsa on the table. Salsa is on the spicier side, but was absolutely delicious. We had the Cadillac margarita (moderately strong and well mixed), tacos dorado with steak (fried and seasoned perfectly), and corn tacos with birria (melt-in-your-mouth and perfect temp). The bar is its own little mixology section and is very well stocked. SIDE NOTES: We were way too full for dessert, but there were several nice options that all looked and smelled amazing as they passed us. Can't wait to go back when we have emptier stomachs to try more!

Glad I won't be coming here again. I order the chorizo con huevo and later throughout the day I'm having bowel issues and I feel ill. Keep in mind I only ate here and that's all I ate today. I eat healthy everyday but today was a cheat day because I wanted to enjoy home food but it's terrible here.

    Basil Bistro -- A Fundamental Failure in Service and Execution…read more Rating: (1/5) A bowl of pho is one of the simplest dishes to execute well, but it also happens to be one of the easiest to ruin if timing is ignored. Unfortunately, my experience at Basil Bistro was defined not by the broth or the ingredients, but by a complete breakdown in service and quality control. If I could give this experience zero stars, I would. Ambiance - 2/5 The restaurant itself is clean and casual, with the atmosphere of a typical neighborhood Vietnamese restaurant. Unfortunately, any positive first impression quickly disappeared once the service issues began. Authenticity - 2/5 Pho is built around balance--a fragrant broth, fresh herbs, tender meat, and most importantly, noodles that retain their texture. Timing is an essential part of the dish. When that timing is ignored, the integrity of the entire bowl is lost. Flavor - 1/5 I waited approximately 20 minutes for a single bowl of pho, yet no one checked on me or provided any update. When I finally asked where my food was, the bowl appeared almost immediately. Unfortunately, it became obvious what had happened. The noodles had clearly been sitting submerged in the broth for an extended period. They were so overcooked that they were beginning to fall apart with my chopsticks. As someone who appreciates properly prepared pho, this completely ruined the dish. A great bowl of pho should have noodles with a pleasant bite--not noodles that have disintegrated from sitting too long. Service - 1/5 This was easily the most disappointing part of the visit. No one acknowledged the delay. No one apologized. No one explained what happened. No one came by to check if the food was okay. Instead, the food was simply placed on the table as if nothing had occurred. Mistakes happen in every restaurant, but what separates a good restaurant from a poor one is how those mistakes are handled. In this case, there was no accountability whatsoever. Cost - 1/5 Regardless of the price, paying for a bowl of pho that had effectively become inedible due to poor timing is unacceptable. The value simply wasn't there. Final Thoughts Restaurants occasionally have busy days, and delays are understandable. What isn't understandable is serving a bowl of pho that has been sitting long enough for the noodles to become mush, while offering no explanation or apology. Hospitality begins with communication. Quality begins with knowing when a dish should and should not leave the kitchen. Unfortunately, Basil Bistro failed on both counts.

Don't let the little unassuming restaurant tucked away in a strip mall fool you. The food , service, and ambience is what you'd expect to get from restaurant in a much more upscale area. We started out with drinks, a bright refreshing glass of Riesling for me and an old fashioned for my hubby. For starts, I tried the poblano corn chowder and we also shared the boar and beef meatball small plate. Both were absolutely delicious and were devoured. For entrees I had the wild boar bolognese and my husband had the lemon thyme chicken. The portions, especially the pasta, were generous and the dishes were really well composed.
