Yes, white girl can salsa... bachata, Casina Rueda, and even a little cumbia sonidera. So you can…read morejust wipe that surprised look right off your face! The man standing outside the entrance as I walked up asked me if I was ready to dance. I kind of thought the dance shoes I was carrying in my hands were a pretty good clue, but maybe he was just making conversation. That's how serious dancers recognize a kindred spirit - by the shoe bags or dance shoes in our hands; we never dance in street shoes or walk around the parking lot in our dance shoes. When I said "Yes!" he followed it up with "You salsa good?" Oh yeah, Honey - I "salsa good" This was my first time at La Movida and I was very impressed. Yes, I know you're looking at the map and shaking your head saying to yourself "It's down off Union for heaven's sake." Well, get over it. La Movida has a large well lit parking lot with signs announcing that there is 24 hour video surveillance, and I felt perfectly comfortable parking and walking in (and out at the end of the night) by myself. Inside, there is a surprisingly large dance floor with ample space around it to hold tables and chairs for quite a few dancers or music lovers (The space holds 1150 people). The club seems to play mostly salsa, bachata, and cumbia music, but that could have just been the night I was there. I danced for several hours, spinning like crazy every chance I got, and my knees didn't hurt afterwards so I'm declaring the dance floor very danceable. I've heard they have a lot of live bands that play there, too!! The club is attractively decorated and lit. I was particularly fascinated with the colored lighting behind the bar. It took me a while to realize that the lights were slowly cycling through colors from blue and green to purple and red, but in such a subtle way that it was not immediately obvious what was going on. The effect was actually very well done, even upscale. The bartenders and servers were very courteous and friendly, and the drink prices not unreasonable. I would absolutely go back! Girl's gotta get her dance on!!

This was my first time visiting Pyrenees Cafe and it's my sister's favorite restaurant so I was…read moreexcited to be able to try it! We were able to find ample parking in the lot on a Saturday around 2pm. We walked into the bar and it took me a while for my eyes to adjust from it being so bright outside and dark inside, but you walk right into the middle of the bar with a large bar top and booths around the room. We walked to the restaurant side, which was super cute, but we went to the patio. The patio was super cute as well, with plants all over and there were giant fans for when it gets really hot outside. Our server was awesome too, and I mean awesome because when she came to take our orders I had seen a very tiny very pregnant little black and white cat and I asked about her. Our server was AMAZING in telling me that the local cats are pretty taken care of because she could tell I was concerned and distracted LOL We put in our orders: sister's favorite is the NY Steak French Fry Salad, husband got the Bacon Avocado Pepperjack burger, and I couldn't decide so I got the Basque lunch setup. All the food was awesome. My different dishes were delivered as they were ready and there was so much! The basque lunch is a good value as well in my opinion:) Everyone was very happy with their food and drinks. The restroom was small but worked just fine and pretty clean. I will definitely be back to try more things from the Pyrenees Cafe huge menu and awesome staff (and cute kittens).

Come for the Basque food, stay of the Picon Punch!…read more A fun outing with friends called for a little bit of everything, so a friend and I decided to split a couple of dishes and order big!We started with the Basque Lunch, which came with a hearty vegetable stew, salad, bread, and beans. It was a comforting, generous spread that gave us a taste of traditional Basque cuisine. Next up was the chef's special, Coquilles St. Jacques, featuring a medley of seafood in a heavy cream sauce topped with melted Gruyere cheese. The seafood appeared to be a frozen medley of mussels, baby shrimp, tiny scallops, clams, and supposedly lobster. Unfortunately, I couldn't see or taste any lobster, which may have been due to the richness of the cream sauce and melted cheese overpowering everything else. Tasty, but very heavy. I ordered the Buttonwillow Kool-aid, which was much too sweet for my taste. I picked up grapefruit notes, even though the menu listed orange juice. Maybe it just wasn't hitting the spot, so I decided to switch things up. Enter the Picon Punch. Our waitress tried to talk me out of it, warning me that it was basically like sipping gasoline. Naturally, that only made me more curious. Ienjoy a strong cocktail, so I figured, why not? This was the highlight of my visit! The Picon Punch was bittersweet, herbaceous, and citrusy, with a wonderfully strong alcohol backbone. It had complexity and character, and I could happily sip this one again.
