Thread: Review: Cactus Club NE (Barlow)

    Default Cactus Club NE (Barlow)

    Cactus Club
    - N.E. Barlow trail...near the A&W
    - Food rating 4/5
    - Ambience 3/5
    - Service 4/5
    - Value 4.5/5

    50 dollars for Two hungry guys /// Appitizer, 2 meals and drinks.

    This was my first time here. Me and my friend came in on a night after hitting the gym and we were hungry. Atmosphere was welcoming, very clean.

    Service was pretty good. Hostess asked us where we wanted to sit, took us to the table. We changed our minds and went to the lounge, she kindly escorted us to the lounge and had a seat right infront of the tvs.

    Server was allright. Greeted us..the usual, drinks on time..though the refills took a while, but i don't blame them. it was quite busy.

    Food was GREAT. I love their fajitas! My friend had a steak and he thought it was good.
    Like pinoyhero suggested, finish with the cost per person. For cost, it might be an idea to mention if you had drinks or not.

    WASHROOM -- something i never expected. Clean as hell. LCD Screens infront of the stand up urinals. I mean your taking a piss, and watching/listening to the news at the same time. haha.

    A restaurant is in the business to do one thing and one thing only..make money, they don't care if it's clientele are stuck up or not and why would you classify the nw as stuck up people? Good call on the airport comment jdmakkord.

    Well in that case, ask him why he didn't open it up in forest lawn instead? Thats as far from stuck up as you can get!
