The Stand

Usually we come to this place just for the stand up portion. However decided to try out the restaurant.

The clutch move about eating here before the show is that you get 10% off the food bill, and they save your seat at the show itself (which is usually downstairs( if you are not yet done eating. We started eating at 9pm, so we went the route of them saving our seat.

For drinks got the espresso martini without simple syrup.

For food, we ended up getting the shrimp cocktail, the porkchop, a steak, and the tagliatelle pasta all great options.

(FYI you can order all these at the actual show as well, but I liked eating them before the show).

Hell’s Kitchen DC

So we went to this place at our last minute stop to DC. It’s located by the wharf area.

Everything we had was on point, and would do it again.

For appetizers, got the shrimp cocktail and the beef Wellington (the beef Wellington is supposedly a must have, and usually not an appetizer, but we wanted to try it out).

For the main course, did a little surf and turf.got the 8oz sirloin (medium well, which they cooked just right) and lobster (we also got a side of Mac and cheese snd asparagus).

For desert got the toffee bread pudding. It was so good.

For drinks, had an espresso martini and an old fashioned. None of them made me hung over the next day.

Contramar

We went to this place on our second night in Mexico City.

It is highly suggested by many that if it is your first time in Mexico City to go visit this place.

For drinks, mainly got Aperol Spritzs.

For appetizers, got the shrimp cocktail and the tuna sashimi. Thought both were excellent. Also got the clam chowder (would probably not get it again).

For the main course, shared a few things. Got the tuna tostados, the king fish tacos, the octopus, and the whole grilled fish.

For deserts, sampled the apple pie with ice cream, the strawberry cake, the flan, and the fig cake. Would get the apple pie again if I had to choose one.

Sundance Steak House

Definitely would come back to this place, especially for Happy Hour (which ends at 6pm).

For drinks, I ordered the lemon drop (it was so good I got 4 of them!). They’re only $6 during happy hour.

For the appetizers ($8 each), the shrimp cocktail and the calamari were great choices.

For the main, I got the $30 prime rib with the clam chowder. The clam chowder was great, it the prime rib was just ok (I’ve had better). I think I would order something else next time.
