    Arroz con Pollo
    Connie T.

    We came here on Mother's Day with a larger group and had a great time! We got there before the crowd and were able to get a table on the covered patio. The menu is very large and sure to please different tastes. Our group tried several items including the arroz con pollo, quesadilla, ceviche, chori-pollo, chile relleno, and even the chef salad. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Their drinks are great too. The service was a little slower since we were outside but we didn't have issues getting what we needed.

    Chimichanga Loca

    Friday evening and this place is jumping! They got use seated quickly and a server had chips and salsa at the table in the blink of an eye. Within a couple minutes our waiter arrived and took our drink orders and was back in a flash with drinks and to take our order. THE FOOD CAME OUT FAST, Real Fast for a busy Friday night. I ordered the quesadillas fajita and beef tacos and my wife ordered chimichanga loca. The food was good, it was hot and again, it arrived quickly. Very nice setting and ambiance, we will definitely return.

    Flour Burrito Loco. Excellent and fresh covered either cheese sauce

    Cheeky's is definitely an experience--the kind that makes you say, "Wow, I'm really glad I left my…read morehouse for this." A friend hit me up for happy hour on a Saturday night, and shockingly, I was home from work early enough to actually make it happen. Even more shocking? We chose Cheeky's, and I couldn't have been happier. The last time I was here was back when it was Casey's and Cheeky's was just launching, so I was excited to see how it had evolved. From the moment I walked in, the vibe was giving elegant, cozy, and intimate. Soft lighting, relaxed energy--basically the kind of place that gently tells you to sit down, sip a cocktail, and forget about your responsibilities. My friends had already ordered and kindly let us sample their food. I can't remember exactly what it was (possibly drunken noodles? Possibly magic?), but whatever it was, it was delicious. Since we didn't want to copy their order, my boyfriend and I went with the duck fries, duck wings, and fried beef tips with rice. Let me start with the fries because...wow. Skinny fries tossed in garlic, what tasted like truffle, and cooked in duck fat. Honestly? Some of the best fries I've had in a long time. I would come back just for those. My boyfriend loved the duck wings, which were generously coated in mumbo sauce. A little too saucy for me (I prefer my wings slightly less...bathed), but the flavor was solid and the portion was more than fair. My fried beef tips were everything--perfect crunch, just the right amount of sauce, and packed with flavor. A true masterpiece that really showcased Asian-inspired cuisine at its best. I also ordered the hibiscus lemon drop, which was so good I considered ordering a second (and did). That said, it was a bit overpriced for the size--but still tasty enough to make me forgive it. Overall, Cheeky's is super chic, serves delicious cocktails, and delivers flavorful, creative food. If you're looking for a food adventure or something a little out of the norm, I 100% recommend stopping by for an evening. My only complaint? I still dream about the pork katsu sandwich they had back in the Casey's days--served with homemade wonton chips. I think about that sandwich more often than I'd like to admit. Please...bring it back.

    Love the decor and ambiance! When it was Casey's that was my biggest gripe, it looked like a…read moreDennys, but the food was much fancier. The only issue i had when I went in, was that the coffee tables are a bit lower to the ground than was comfortable. My friend and I came during restaurant Week, apparently during happy hour! We ordered duck fries off the happy hour menu, but then also crispy beef, cucumber salad, biang biang shrimp, and duck wings. Everything was phenomenal! The cucumber salad was too spicy for me but it was a risk I took, even tho I could see all the flakes of red spicy all over it. Our server was very nice and he even tried to do the math to see which way to ring in or order to make the price in our favor. We told him not to worry about it, it's fine. We actually never got the duck fries, but at least it was the HH price and not full price. Oh! Then we got the red velvet cinnamon roll for dessert... I will say, I didn't love it. I love red velvet everything, but did not love that. The icing didn't taste like cream cheese although it was super light and fluffy... it was warm in some areas and just cold in others... idk, I just think it could be better executed in a couple different ways. Typically i might take a star away for not getting an item ordered and not loving the dessert, but i didn't mention any of it, so there was no option for the establishment to do anything about it even if they wanted to.

    If you don't know it by now, the missus and I are big believers in happy hour. We don't treat it…read morelike a hobby so much as a part-time job with better benefits. Today's venue of choice was a place called Rivers End, which sounds like either a cocktail bar or a warning label, depending on how your day's going. It starts off a little funny because you have to figure out the right door, then march yourself up the stairs like you're reporting for duty. Once you get up there, though, it feels like the kind of cool old place that's seen some things. You can almost feel the years rolling by, from Caribbean rum days to whiskey nights to the modern era of "smart cocktails," where they put things like herbs and intentions in your drink. The vibe was right. Cocktails were great--strong enough to matter, smooth enough not to apologize for. The food was excellent across the board, the kind that makes you stop talking for a minute so you can do some serious fork work. Most important, our waiter Shane was dead on the mark: there when you needed him, gone when you didn't, and never once tried to explain the menu like we'd just landed from Ohio for the first time. I can't find a single thing to complain about, which for me is almost a complaint in itself. Good value, good food, and a good scene--about all you can ask from an afternoon you're not spending at work. Next visit will be brunch, and I hope it's soon. Oh, and I did have the tostadas, but I got so excited by the smell I forgot to take a picture. Lewis would've understood. Some things are meant to be eaten, not photographed

Everything we tried was delicious. The speakeasy-style entrance is a fun touch: you pick up the phone and "call ahead" to unlock the door (even though it's more about the experience than an actual lock), which really sets the mood. Inside, the vibe is cozy and immersive, and they often have a live band that adds to the Renaissance-inspired aesthetic. Overall, great drinks, great food, and a really cool atmosphere. Definitely a spot worth checking out.

We each ordered the Monkey Smoke (Penicillin), and she ordered a small plate with avocado and lump crabmeat, which we ordered just in time as the kitchen closed between 3 and 4. The standout of the day for me was the old fashioned, made with plum bitters. One of the best old fashioneds I've ever had. The servers were all very friendly and quick. We will definitely come back the next time we're in town, and definitely recommend this to others.

The atmosphere is a chic whiskey/cigar bar esthetic (not actually for cigars)... warm tones of yellow and leather with brown leather throughout! The food is absolutely immaculate in presentation and taste... every ingredient is perfectly combined with intentionality and nuance. The fries are crisp... the sourdough bread freshly baked and cut to the perfect width. The coleslaw might be the best coleslaw I've ever had... not too much mayo or overly sweet... perfect crunch. The Birria grilled cheese is intensely rich and the pickled red onions are essential... I wish there was far more on the plate. It's the essential acidity that will break up the richness. Take a few with each bite. The fish is fried to absolute perfection... light and crisp and the batter was not too heavy... absolutely golden in color and light and crisp on every bite. You'll need to spritz the lemon for the acidity. My wife loved the fried pickles (frickles?!)... and we will definitely be back to try the other items on the menu!

Despite attempts to use salsa, cholula, anything, the queso was disgustingly overpowering, being the equivalent of blended cottage cheese on top of a blisteringly hot skillet, which is a hazard, because they seal the skillets off in plastic containers before serving, which is crazy hot when trying to carry to a table. $15 for each of these disgusting skillets, which we could not even finish half of. When I offered feedback, the worker was rude and stated "well, we've been doing it for 4 years this way and you're the first person to say anything", as if that makes a difference - today, it was not the move (it's an American skillet with nothing Mexican about it, just use cheddar or something, it's not even Tex-Mex). The coffee is OK, nothing special, only the wait times are extraordinarily long for what makes Starbucks look like a 5 star-enterprise. Ambiance is charming; definitely stayed for the Jesus Christ-themed coffee, which is definitely a choice to say the least...
