Super nice staff. Knowledgeable bartender. Great food selection. I ordered the flat iron steak salad and it was good but my medium rare steak came out more medium well and was a bit chewy. Could have just been the meat and not the cook. The chimichurri sauce was great. Good selection of wine and again, superb bartender and staff.
It was a nice experience and better than I anticipated upon arrival. The food was amazing and the service was great. We definitely will be eating here again when we come to visit our college student.
First of all, let's talk about the BBQ Braised Short Rib Mac 'n' Cheese at Rave On. Please try it, you won't be sorry. It was like heaven in my mouth. We got it as an appetizer and it was followed by delicious mains (grouper for me, burger for the husband). Substituted steak fries in place of the regular ones and good lord, I have never seen fries that have truly earned the name "steak fries" like these did. Left room for some dessert and espresso. Service was top notch and there was plenty of seating. The only thing I didn't love was the margarita, it was a bit heavy/syrupy for my taste (and rimmed with sugar instead of salt), so I'd probably go with beer or wine instead of a cocktail next time.
This was our first time to dine at Rave On. We made a reservation for a pre-show dinner. The location was perfect to be able to walk right into the Buddy Holly Hall of Performing Arts.
Karsyn was our server and she was great. We will actually request her next time.
All of our food was well-prepared, fresh, and very good. Some of our faves were the Portobello Appetizer, Braised Short-Ribs, Kale Salad (entrée salad), and the Coconut Cake.
As a bonus, you can purchase drinks (even wine;-) in to-go cups to take to your show if you are seeing one.
Had the smoked trout dip (plate w crackers) and the Burrata & Compari tomatoes w balsamic for appetizers. Both were very good, the trout dip tasted a bit bland though. For entrees, we had the Kurobuta pork chop and the Braised Short Rib & Papperdelle. Both were very delicious and tender, not too salty or sweet which was a huge plus. The short rib came with the papperdelle pasta that was very flavorful and a nice add to the dish. The au-gratin potatoes were the best side we could’ve chosen! Will be coming here again for sure. Service was excellent too!
