    14 oz aged NY strip (medium) and twice baked potato.
    Nellie F.

    I'll just start by saying the best part of our experience was our server, Grant. He was very attentive, interactive with our group and just a pleasant person. Booked it for a pre-birthday dinner for my mom's birthday. We had 4 adults, 1 toddler and 1 infant. I made the reservation on OpenTable and it automatically offered me the Carlotta Private Room. It is out of sight of the main restaurant and is very secluded. It's a round room with old photos/paintings on the walls, some of the original furniture, and antique-y decor. The first impression was not how pretty it was, but how smelly it was. It smelled musty and damp in there. I get that it's old, but you can still get it and keep it smelling fresh! Anyway, they had some lavash and butter with what I think was paprika as an 'amuse bouche'. We ordered beverages and then our main dishes (which were accompanied by fresh dinner rolls). For myself, I got the Sea Bass (Branzino) which came with mille feuille potatoes and asparagus. For my toddler (since they do not have a kid's menu) and husband (who ate the lion's share of the meal), we got the 14 oz aged NY strip steak and twice-baked potato. The other adults said their food was "meh". My fish was overcooked and absolutely tasteless. I was so unbelievably disappointed. I have NEVER had to add salt to any fish dish made in a restaurant... this was a first. I had to add salt AND pepper, and still it left a lot to be desired. The mille feuille had been deep fried, such that instead of being a delicate masterpiece, it became a brick of deep-fried potato! I was not a fan. My husband was also underwhelmed with his steak. He said it tasted like they just cooked a naked steak - absolutely no seasoning. What really ground my gears is the number of times the restaurant staff mentioned "fine dining". Now I've been fortunate enough to enjoy fine dining in several different states, and the lack of seasoning, flavor and sanitation (the smell) in this place should be reason enough to not use that phrase to define themselves. I was so disappointed by the experience. When your lavash and dinner rolls taste better than any of your entrees, you've got some serious problems. And to think the average plate sells for about $45... the least you can do is give people good food!

    Always stellar!!!! Double Eagle has a bit of everything- great drinks, an amazing menu, superb history, and fun stories of the supernatural. Make sure to have a cocktail in the bar area- the Double Eagle Margarita is award winning as it should be! The history of the bar area is fascinating- ask the bartender and they'll tell you a tale. We learn something new every visit. Make reservations and you can be sat in one of several rooms- the haunted Carlotta room, the Gadsden Purchase room, or the Maximillian room. Each room has its own special draw with spooky tales or significant historical events like the signing of the Gadsden purchase. Fun!! Upon ordering, note that their steak is exceptional in any form. I've gone with the beef tornadoes (medallions) and the Chicken Mesilla with a side of the lobster Mac and cheese- split among three of us and it was the perfect portion. We ended the evening with a slice of the Mile High Cheesecake with chocolate. Service is always great and timed perfectly! The prices are very reasonable considering this is a place of historic significance! Double Eagle is so good every single time.

    Going to the Double Eagle is like stepping back into time. This elegant space with multiple chandeliers and where the Gadsden Purchase was signed seems out of place in the plaza. We were fortunate enough to get a reservation in the private Carlota Salon. A room where it is said the ghosts of two lovers still remain. We started with their award winning margaritas from the Imperial Bar. Our waitress was super attentive and the courses were well-timed. The red chile escargot was cooked well and was a nice twist on a traditional dish. Three in our group split the steak flight - 3 cuts of beef at a total of 58 ounces of meat (still way too much for three to share) The portions were cut and served table side. Some pieces were a little rare for my liking. A memorable dish was the steak complement of lobster mac & cheese. Perfectly cooked lobster in a creamy sauce with green chile.

    Sat down as a party of 4. The atmosphere was very nice. Bread and butter was good. Ordered crab stuffed mushrooms and Calamari. The stuffed mushrooms were delicious. The calamari was overcooked. Ordered fish and steaks for dinner. The Branzino fish tasted very fishy and came with a very small amount of truffle fries. The food arrived Luke warm and the server did not provide steak knives beforehand. Had to find someone to provide steak knives. One person did not like the smokey filet minion steak taste . The lobster tail was very good. Another person did not like the wagyu steak. The sirloin and scallops was very good. The wine selection was great and reasonably priced. The creme brûlée was delicious. Cost of dinner was too high for the overall mediocre food quality and service.

    Tuesday special.  The food was great and the Margherita had two pretty pieces of turquoise for us.

We had actually tried out a new place, and were gravely disappointed. Two words, "fake" "meat". So, yeah, with the nastiness of the previous place leaving us yearning for a good burger (other than those from home!), we were in the area after a long day of sports nearby, and decided to grab a couple of burgers. Again, it's not fast food. There were some disappointments, but not deal breakers... 1) The burger patty on my burger was about 2" x 3" It was pretty d TINY!! But...at least it was real meat, lol!! And THAT is what we went there for. The bun? These are homemade and usually very good. The top bun on my burger was hard as a rock. It was either stale to begin with, or microwaved after it was toasted. Not too much of a deal cus I'm low carb anyway, though I had planned on breaking my diet for what I already knew would be a tasty house made bun. So, I wasn't too put off, by having an inedible bun. As it was, the under bun was perfect, and toasted with garlic.... and I DID break my diet for this, which I ate by itself. This bread is tdf! So there's that! Since I planned on breaking my diet anyway, I went ahead and order fries. The fries were not greasy like they used to be years ago. But they didn't seem fresh either, like they were years ago. Not soggy, not bad. I'll let it pass. We don't like seasonings on our fries so we got them "naked", and they were actually pretty good that way. No salt, nothing (though I did, later on pour on some gooey cheese for some nice cheese fries). The burger itself was good. I got the mushroom swiss burger. I'm not so sure that the white goo on my burger was swiss though. I've never seen swiss melt into almost nothing like that before. Perhaps it was grated? Still, never seen gooey almost liquid swiss before. I think it was either "swiss cheese product" (white american cheese), or provolone or something. Would have been nice, like tdf if it had been real swiss cheese. The grilled onions, fresh meat, fresh bottom bun (lol) made this burger. Also, again, I appreciate that they put garnishments on the side. I just ate them straight up, including the giant leaf of lettuce. A good overall meal. So even if Voodoo disappoints in some areas, there's always a treasure somewhere, and it was an enjoyable meal. Take away from this... wish the buns weren't stale or microwaved. Wish the burger patty was a decent size, not slider sized. Wish the swiss cheese was real swiss cheese. Not even gonna say I wish prices were lower, that's a given. My burger with fries was over $15.

They make the burgers, fries, & onion rings to order. So it all takes time!! Be patient. The burgers have that great smash crust on them but still flavorful & juicy. It's a very basic burger. Lettuce, onion, mayo, mustard, ketchup (I think?), & cheese but no bacon! Wasn't upset about that, totally understandable, the bacon would slow things down even more. Fries, curly fries, & onion rings. Pop, water, tea, & sports drinks. All in a fridge & nothing in a fountain machine. Chips if you want them. The difference between the regular burger k the great burger is the regular burger is basically a slider. Again, still reasonable. Would definitely come back. Make sure you double check the order though. My colleague asked for no mustard & her had mustard on it but an easy fix. No issues. Also, looks like you should be able to place an order online soon. This is an old school kind of place where they take orders by hand in a notebook. Honestly, loved to see it. Something so lovely & quaint about it. Come by and check it out if you haven't.
