Well, driving by this place, I see a great big sign outside that advertises Deep Fried…read moreCheeseburgers! Naturally, being a male carnivorous type, I just had to turn around and check this out.
The Drunken Monkey is a small friendly bar, that also serves as a Restaurant during the daytime. The people were immediately polite and friendly to me and I felt welcome just coming in.
I ordered their Deep Fried Cheeseburger, which comes with the normal fixings (Mayo, Lettuce, Tomato, Onion, Pickle) and fresh cut frenchfries, and I gotta tell ya, it was a real treat to eat. The price wasn't bad either, at 6.99 so I can't complain all around.
While there, I heard they also had Karaoke on Fridays and Saturdays starting at 8pm, so I made a point to go back later last night (Friday, the 21st) and help celebrate the upcoming Mayan End of the world with a new crowd.
The Crowd was pumped, the Music was good and the sound system was set up with the acoustics of the place in mind, so nobody was blasted out and you could hear the singers clearly. AND let me tell you, some great singers came through that place!
I ordered their special, for dinner, an 8oz steak with Salad and Fries, sadly, the steak was overcooked (I blame the waitress not fully hearing me say Med Rare, so communication, not their fault) and it was later so it was the last steak they had, but I re-ordered a pulled pork BBQ sandwich and that came with coleslaw and fries (although I told them not to make new fries, I'd eat the ones that came with the steak)
They were very apologetic, and helpful about the miscommunication, which we all know happens, so I cant' fault their service at all. The pulled pork was very tasty, and as before, their fries were good. If I had any negative feedback on the food at all, it would be the coleslaw was a little watery with dressing.
Just want to give an accurate account, hope you come out and enjoy...I plan to try and make it there again maybe next Friday, who's gonna join Me!!! If you do, I'm the Singer called up as "Doc" for karaoke!
