    Shrimp Yaka Mein

    4.5 (can't leave half stars on Yelp)! We've been to the new location twice since it opened. First time, the wings were good and fries were rather greasy. Second time, wings were great, fries still just fries, fried shrimp and crab claws were awesome and shrimp yaka mein really hit the spot. Flavorful and plentiful!! We will be back. I hope they change their fry type, maybe a crinkle fry will be less greasy. Glad to have a go-to spot close to home.

    When visiting New Orleans, we stumbled across The Rum House and got curious. With a name like that,…read moreI figured they had to know rum, so we decided to give it a try. Luckily, we arrived during happy hour. We started with the tuna ceviche, which was half off. At only $8, it was an incredible value. The fish tasted very fresh, clean, and was beautifully presented. My only complaint was that it needed a little more lime and salt to really make the flavors pop. I'd absolutely order it again at happy hour, but at full price I'd hope for a little more seasoning. For drinks, we tried several. The Rum Punch didn't disappoint. It reminded me of a Hurricane but without the heavy grenadine flavor, which I personally prefer. Next was a creamy white rum cocktail with a pineapple garnish (I can't remember the name). It was surprisingly strong, which I loved since rum is usually a softer spirit. It was just a little sweeter than my taste, so I probably wouldn't order it again. The star of the night was the Piña Colada. It was honestly one of the best I've ever had. It wasn't overly sweet, had an incredibly smooth, creamy texture, and was topped with whipped cream and a rum floater that was absolutely perfect. They told me it's double blended, and whatever they're doing works. My only complaint? No maraschino cherry! I'm sorry, but a piña colada just isn't complete without one. One thing to keep in mind is that piña coladas tend to drink more like dessert than a strong cocktail. I had two and barely caught a buzz, but honestly I didn't care because they were that good. We also sampled the White Peach Sangria, and to me it tasted very similar to Moscato. If you're a Moscato fan, you'll probably love it. Overall, I'd definitely come back. Between the happy hour deals, the rum cocktails, and especially that piña colada, The Rum House is absolutely worth a visit. The piña colada would be the first thing I'd order again.

    Food was good but please take Trinidad out of the "Trinidad street roti". There is nothing Trinidad…read moreabout it. Not a good mix with tamarind, bell peppers, cauliflower and so called roti. Beef patties were kinda weird as they tasted like they had curry or something, not too bad. This is coming from an actual Trini.
