Los Hermanos Restaurant & Lounge

"This experience was a mixed bag of tricks. I arrived on a Saturday evening with a church group of 20. There was a sign on the door stating the debit machine was down and they were cash only just then. Some of us had to get cash from the ATM incuring a service fee. In the past they let us arrange the tables to accommodate a large group. Today the waitress said we couldn't do that. The place was practically empty and wouldn't have inconvenienced any other customers. Once we got our drink order placed, another woman came out to take our order. She asked why we didn't group the tables and we told her what the waitress had said. She told us she was the boss and that we could group the tables. By then we were seated at two different tables already and remained that way.After about 20 minutes our food began coming out a couple plates at a time. It took about 10 minutes to get the whole order out. One order was wrong and had to be remade. We were served on Styrofoam plates with plastic silverware. I ordered a tostada/enchilada combo. The tostada was perfect. It was loaded with refried beans, lettuce, tomatoes, and shredded cheese. The enchiladas were shredded beef rolled up in a flour tortilla smothered in enchilada sauce and covered with shredded cheese. The dish was served with rice and refried beans. The beans were average. The rice was perfect. The enchiladas were very tasty. I loved the sauce. The tortilla was a little tough making it hard to cut with the plastic knife. The shredded beef was tender and juicy. Pros: the food is pretty good, the price is reasonable, and the portions are generous.Cons: not the greatest place for a large group, ambiance is not that great, and the restroom is shared with the bar next door. The bathroom was not very clean and the dispenser was out of paper towels.Bye the way the order that had to be remade came out just as we were finishing up so he had to it to go."

"Really had a great first visit here. Chatted with lots of locals, enjoyed some excellent meatballs, drank almost an entire bottle of Sauvignon Blanc, and found a great bottle of wine to take home."

Tabu Bar

★★★★☆ 4.1 (49)

"Cool spot. The sound could be better, you can hear parts of the building rattle when the music is loud. The food and drink were pretty good. I got the Mexican Chocolate Old Fashioned and this twist on a classic cocktail was great. The chocolate wasn't too sweet and everything else went well together. The elote had good flavor, but was over cooked. Some of the parts were mushy. This could have been due to being a slow night or still working out their kitchen."

"Great to finally be back on the Yelp-osphere! I HAD to do Edge as my first review back! This bar is AMAZING. First off this has become my regular spot to go with friends on the weekdays. David does Karaoke all weekday long and has the voice of an angel! (Really though a halo pops up and a choir sings backup during his songs.) he always seems so happy to see us and puts our songs in without even needing them written down! Bulldog the bouncer is wonderful and makes my day every time I see him. He always walks us to our car to make sure we don't get wisked away in the dark by strange men! He keeps the bar so safe I never worry about anything but having a good time. All the bartenders are magnificent, but Christina is our favorite! She is drop dead perfect and is the sweetest girl you will ever meet. She also does great pours which is much appreciated. I love seeing the regular crowd like Arturo and my man man Bam-bam. I'm not into the band dive bar scene so I don't go weekend nights because I prefer downtown, but weekdays this is exactly what I need to relax after work and have a good time. It's pretty dimly lit inside so don't get to drunk or you'll end up on the floor."
