by Jeff E. on I used to love Cuba Libre - The Rosemary Grilled Chicken with asparagus was a giant plate of perfectly cooked chiken along with 5 stocks of thick asparagus wrapped in bacon and grilled to perfection. Not so much last night. My wife and I hadn't gone downtown in about 9 months due to a new baby, so we got a babysitter and headed down to one of our old favorate places for some good Mojitos and good food. We were greeted immediately by a nice hostess who directed us to one of the tall tables in the center near the bar as the regular food tables were taken - no problem. The food and drink order was taken quickly and efficiently by our waitress. When the food arrived it was much less tasty than it used to be, the asparagus were stringy and the bacon slightly burned. The chicken was still plentiful, but the presentation of it left much to be desired - two breasts of chicken covered in artichokes, mushrooms (i think), and other things - it looked like dog food, but luckily tasted better than I imagine dog food would taste. All was fine through dessert, a lovely chocolate cake flanked by two giant sides of whipped cream. We got our check, paid, and left for the 1/2 price bottles of champagne at Cru on Thursday nights. About 10 minutes after we got to Cru I started feeling sick, and I don't think it was due to the 1 mojito I'd drank. Food poisoning is no fun, let's just leave it at that. In all, during dinner I was planning on giving C.L. 3 stars for mediocre food in a cool old building, but due to my sickness, I have to knock it down to 1 for food. Still 4-5 stars in my book for some good Mojitos though!
by Rob Lapora on For fans of the Jersey Shore and Miami Beach: this place is for you! I came here for Charles Feelgood this past Saturday and apparently I didn't get the memo. I left my Miami Beach, cut up spandex dress at home - oops! I felt very much out of place in my little black dress, but I'm glad I know now that next time I come here it is certainly safe to don the scandal. Anything that shows cleavage and legs for days, and perhaps even a little peek of the cheeks is A-OK here. Now now, I'm no hater of crowds. I'm all for freedom of expression, but if you don't fit in, then you don't fit in! And, when I go out it's all about the experience as a whole. So, this place earns 3 stars only because I was a huge fan of the awesome sound system and beautiful interior. Oh SF venues, your interiors are so grand and so very aesthetically pleasing. The service from the staff here doesn't seem to be the best in town. Ruby Skye, I think you just may be full of yourself and a little too pretentious. Although, my party and I didn't have any trouble, when we were in the will call line the bouncers took their sweet time. Oh, did I forget to mention we were the only ones in line??! From the time we showed our I.D.'s to the time they gave us our wristband and let us in at least 5 minutes had passed. It was enough time for one of the other bouncers to ask if we had been helped already. It's not like the dude had to cut down a tree and make the wristbands by hand; they were right there! Oh well, I think this will be my one and only encounter with Sir Ruby Skye (thank goodness).
