Ok so SMort, my wonderful g/f and myself went down there last night. First off let me tell you this place is very…very nice and very…very inexpensive. Great food, beer selection and atmosphere. They had an excellent Jazz duo playing near the bar area right when you first walk in. After we ate we were taken upstairs for a tour of the party room. Chicken Parm sandwich…mmmmmmmmmm plus they provide the bread and dipping oil…uh, chronic,and Penn Brewery Christmas brew…bonus and 1/2.
Long story short, this place is awsome and well within our price range but too nice for us AND parking SUCKS! For a Tuesday night I had to park almost 2 blocks in towards the hill. CAn’t imagine accomodating parking for 50 people, not even 15, when I had a hard time finding 1 open spot. Plus this is a place where we can’t leave it covered in Pittspeed stickers like you know we always do :hs:
This leads me to believe that we need to choose a large chain location with ample parking and Im thinking Mad Mex in Robinson although I’ve never been inside it looks much larger than my Mad Mex on McKnight with a decent ammount of parking and assuming the same $6 Big Ass margarita special from 10-12 any night of the week we can get drunk cheap lol. Their food rocks socks as well.
Whitey, any input on this Mad Mex loca.? I’m almost positive they will reserve a party section for us if they are as cool as the staff we know on McKnight and we guarantee them $xxx in alcohol sales…Can you push some buttons?..see what you can do since ur prob the closest.
They do, i love that place and they offer party packages but 1/2 the people on here wont travel past south park. Look at what happened when we tried to have the picnic in north park…not a very good turnout. Us north hillsers ain’t skeered, we can drive to robinson, no problemo.
