I had ice tea and wife ordered the blood orange jenny drink; both were great and refreshing! I also ordered a loaf of their warmed sourdough and butter to share with the table. Almost like being in San Francisco! For dinner we decided to share a couple of things; the crab cakes, which comes with fried avocado and some of the best aioli for dipping. The cakes themselves are big and full of crab with just the right amount of filling to create a decadent and moist cake! We also shared the seared jumbo scallops...High Tides knows how to cook scallops to the best! So yummy and tender and perfectly cooked with that crispy outer and the soft, creamy inside. We also shared a Caesar salad and one of the things we love about this place...ask and you can get some fresh anchovy on the side to add to the salad. Wife always asks for more lemon as well to drizzle over the salad. Overall a fantastic dinner for us and everyone with us!

We seated ourselves at a booth since it wasn't quite busy and that just means more room for our food and drinks to spread out *teehee* The cocktails were amazing my cousin ordered the espresso martini which she loved they make the espresso fresh. I went with a gin cocktail that had coconut flavors something I would never consider with gin but if you read my reviews you know gin is my preferred spirit. It was so good! For two people we ordered three types of empanadas we probably could have gotten away with two flavors and maybe a lighter tapa or desert but really wanted to try the cheese and guava empanada and didn't want that to be a main option in case we didn't like it. Needless to say we really liked all three: picadillo, arroz con pollo and guava and cheese - the picadillo was the favorite however both for the inside flavor and the accompanying dip. Pricing is not bad I'd say the serving and size of the three empanadas for $14 is a great price.

This is my second visit to Coabana and I like the old food menu better. They used to offer…read moreplantain chips with Guacamole which was very tasty. Since then they have removed the plantain chips and still offer mashed plantains...and a very small serving. I ordered a cuban sandwich which was good but I guess I expected it to look more appealing on a plate such as with garnish. Since it was the middle of June it was already hot outside at a cool 105 degrees temperature. We were surprised to see the restaurant had the front door propped completely open letting the hot air into the restaurant. Since this is a small restaurant you really couldn't escape the heat. The heat unfortunately caused us to leave after a short while.

Pretty hard to get a reservation here. Tables open on the first of every month for the entire…read moremonth, we managed to score a 8 PM reservation. Once we got to the restaurant we could tell why it was so hard, they have less than 10 tables inside, and it's a very small space. We're extremely hyped though because of all the good things we've heard. We ordered two appetizers, bone marrow Elote, and the scallop Crudo. The bone marrow was supposed to be a side for the Elote, which honestly confused me because it came out as bone marrow sprinkled with corn on top, made me confused as to what would've came out if we ordered elote without the bone marrow. The scallop Crudo was so good, served with some kind of tortilla chip, I've had this at lom wongs and I prefer the one here, sauce was sweet and sour, and avocados were perfectly ripe. For our entrée, the four of us shared the 40 ounce ribeye, this was $280 and takes 45 minutes to cook, so it was quite the commitment. The platter comes with tortillas, quesadillas, grilled onions, beans, and more. We are all definitely stuffed by the time we finished it. Meat was cooked perfectly medium rare, and tasted so good with all the fixings of the platter. We also got a birthday dessert on the house which was really nice. It was some kind of pinwheel cake with marshmallow foam on top, it was just OK to me but I'm not a huge dessert person. Really cool restaurant to visit if you were able to score a reservation, I would definitely recommend the ribeye to others if you're looking for something a little elevated at a fun restaurant.

This can happen to You. I rarely leave negative reviews, but…read moreafter this experience, I feel it's important to share what happened so other families can make informed decisions. My family and I had a confirmed reservation and arrived on time, only to be told that our names were not on the reservation list. I presented proof of my reservation, including the confirmation text showing my reservation details and that my credit card information was taken to secure the booking. Despite this evidence, the staff insisted they could not accommodate us. The only option we were offered was outdoor seating in the extreme heat, which was simply not appropriate given that my parents are elderly. When we explained our concerns, we were told there was no room inside and no alternative solutions were offered. What was most disappointing was the complete lack of customer service and accountability. While there was an apology and a brief acknowledgment of my frustration, there was no attempt to offer a reservation that would work for my family and I. No gesture of goodwill and no effort to make things right. Instead, the staff member asked me, "What do you want me to do, there is no room?"--a response that felt dismissive rather than service-oriented. To make matters even more frustrating, the hostess appeared unfamiliar with the restaurant's own reservation system. She initially insisted that I need to use the OpenTable app, despite the fact that I showed her my reservation confirmation text with my reservation details and credit card information. The restaurants website has a reservation tab that has a link to make the reservation. After seeing the confirmation, she changed her explanation, which only added to the confusion and gave me little confidence that the situation was being handled appropriately. I asked several times of speaking with a supervisor or manager and the hostess declined me speaking with someone that of higher authority, more experience in these situations. I gave her my name and information so someone would follow up. Needless to say, I did not receive a follow up. This restaurant has earned a James Beard distinction, so I expected a level of professionalism and hospitality that matched its reputation. Unfortunately, our experience fell far short of those expectations. Mistakes can happen at any restaurant, but what defines excellent hospitality is how those mistakes are handled. In this case, there was no meaningful effort to resolve the issue or show concern for the inconvenience caused to my family. My disappointment is not simply that our reservation was lost--it's that we were left feeling as though our business and our time didn't matter. I sincerely hope the restaurant improves its reservation process and customer service so that no other family has to experience the frustration and embarrassment that we did.

The Theodore is great for grabbing cocktails before a show at The Nash or coming for awesome Thai/ Laotian food offered by Phonomenal Street Eats food truck. Parking is always nutty but was able to snag metered parking around the corner. The lot closest is about $50. Bartenders are so knowledgeable, cool and pretty chill. Don't be a prick. Loved the suggestions and got to sample before I decided on the Mexican lager with pineapple while my brother had pretty much every hazy IPA on the board. Forgot to get the brewing company for my lager but definitely my top favorite. I didn't get to try the Candy Bar Milk Stout but try it and give me your feedback. I did try the candy cane stout and wasn't for me. It was syrupy and a bit too sweet for a stout but hey stay festive folks! Drink beer here at The Theodore and good things happen!

Possibly one of the best seafood meals and restaurant experiences I've ever had!…read more The ambience is amazing. We sat at the bar and had a view of the entire restaurant including the kitchen.

They were spectacular and the shrimp cocktail does not get any better than this. The staff is incredibly attentive and skilled. Like I said, you get what you pay for and this place gives you the best!

Review is strictly on the type of restaurant Buck and rider is. It's an AI robotic restaurant that…read morehas no genuine charm or appeal other than nice decor and good food. The servers are robotic and will ask you every single time if this your "first time dining with us". Never do the hosts or hostess acknowledge "welcome back". When we take our tables there's always a receipt on our table and I turn it over and it says "big spender" on it. We do order a good amount and always the best stuff. But to put this receipt on your table for us to see is beyond cringe, and on top of it their servers will pick it up and ask if I've been there before. 50 times I'm guessing we've visited in the last year or so. Countless reservations under my name and other friends and bar visits for happy hour. Today was my wife's 38th birthday and we came to Buck and rider to enjoy it with our three boys. For the first time in our couple years coming they id'd my wife for her drink she ordered. She didn't bring her ID. The server got the gm and she denied us even seeing our history of how many times we've frequented the establishment. She didn't care that it was her bday or that we had a picture of her ID she was cold, dismissive and short. Nothing you expect of a place that should welcome us with open arms, remember us and make our experiences there memorable. It's a judgement call for them. Deny our best customers who dine here twice a month or more, who have three boys and take her ID picture or lose a good customer. Common sense and standard judgement have been completely lost

We enjoyed talking to him about his travels and life plans. I ordered a drink that I didn't like very much, so he brought me another another one of his choice, which was much better. The food has a Mediterranean flair and was definitely flavorful, but there were a few dishes that were too salty. We tried the zaa'tar man'ouche and the concept was great, but there wasn't enough cheese inside and too much spice/salt on top. The grilled oysters were excellent and had a tasty smoked tomato flavor. For entrees, the lobster tagliatelle had such a delicious smoky flavored sauce, but unfortunately it was way too salty and the lobster was overcooked. We let the manager know about that one and he tasted the sauce and agreed. The herb crusted halibut was very good, with yummy snap peas and beets. We decided to try the black walnut affagato for dessert. It was a bit disappointing because it comes with vanilla ice cream and a black walnut bitter, which is super strong if you taste it alone, but mixed with the ice cream and espresso loses its walnutty flavor. We overpaid for that one. The food is quite overpriced, but if done right I think it's worth it. Just expect that you'll be paying a lot for this dinner. We had a chance to check out the trophy room after dinner; our server was nice enough to make a reservation, likely because it was not too busy that night. They make you lock your phone in a locker. The room is quite small but has unique decor that fits the theme of the restaurant. The bartender did not smile or make eye contact the whole time, but was very knowledgeable about the drinks and different liquers they use. The drink menu is also very unique and has some interesting drink options. I had one with balsamic, strawberry, and marscapone which was different than any drink I've tried before. It was an enjoyable way to end the night.
