I like crispy tacos.
There I said it.
I do.
They are about as Mexican as the American who created them, but Scott loves his CRUNCH!
This said... I was tricked by Azteca's beautifully presented crispy Taco which I can only assume is not produced in a factory by a machine that makes a "Chunk" sound every time is presses one out.
They're big crunchy looking monsters that made my mouth water at the sight of them! And I'm not going to lie to you here... I ate one! Then two! Then three!
... then I came back a second time and ate more!
AND MORE!
I ate so many of their crispy tacos I was worried I'd go blind!
But you know what?
Every single time I ate one of these little monsters I had a two day aftertaste in my mouth that just wouldn't go away!
I mean like I'm using de-skunking grade odor neutralizers IN MY MOUTH!
I just can't do it anymore.
I'm sorry.
And I mean "sorry" as in, "I'm a sorry glutton for punishment."
That said... the staff rocks!
Peace.

The atmosphere is cute in the... "This is a Italian restaurant in a Indie film" way... you half expect to glance over in the corner to see Jason Schwartzman and Alan Cumming having a existential conversation about a tiny jar of pickles.
That aside... my fiance and I were there having a existential conversation about a tiny jar of pickles and we were amazed at the head sized Calzone the waitress brought over to our table! You're getting your money's worth! I'll give Bella Mia that! Not bad either! Cheesy, baked goodness... now where can you go wrong with that?
Now excuse me... I have to force some tiny pickles back into a jar. Don't ask.

Dark, friendly, isolated magic. So much unadulterated magic you're dizzy.
Pull up a bar stool, listen to blind men play piano, dance a jig, sing a sea shanty and marvel at the quintessential Tiki bar...
Ripe.

Most of our historic theaters are a distant memory in the minds eye of our elders. Thanks to a handful of dedicated individuals a small group of failing theaters have been saved and restored for a second life. You're lucky enough to have one of those theaters here in your back yard.
As someone who has worked in historic theaters for most of his professional life, I can't stress enough how important to do what you can to support it's continued function. A city without a major theater is quite simply a city without a heart.

For some bizarre reason I want to like this place. That said, I do not like country music or Western bars, I just like chaos. The illusion that there might be some here is only that... an illusion.
You'll find some nice people outside handing out free drink tickets and don't be tricked. Those drinks are terrible! Back that up with the fact that it's an empty basement 98% of the time, and I think it's fair to say I'm over it.

Now understand... this is a drinkers bar. Not to say an alcoholics bar mind you... it's just well understood that you don't go to the Irish Rose for a fresh berry Daiquiri if you get my drift.
That all said and done... I'm putting together a YELP team for next years tricycle race! Proceeds go to charity but there is a time commitment! There are several weeks of preliminary races before the big event, and the team members needed are of a very specific type.
The tricycles are TINY! So we need some small drivers... and your pit crew consists of drinking a ton of shots on the laps... so we need DRINKERS!
Tiny people and beer bellies apply.
The Red Bull team won this year and I really want to see them go down! Please help me make that dream a reality.... please.

"Yum."
(Ok... I was going to leave that as my whole review, but I feel guilty... in a nutshell, CHEAP Chinese food that sticks to your ribs!)

Sometimes a venue gets Yelp, and sometimes they don't... Indigo not only gets us... they made us feel loved!
From the thoughtfully considered appetizers to the beautiful drinks this was one of the easiest parties I've ever been to.
You can be assured I'll be coming back!
Not my most dynamic review, but I'm saving that for my next visit!

The sales at the ends of the isles here are insane!
I just found Craftsman tool boxes for $7!
Oh... and don't worry if you're not interested in the things Hardware stores sell... the end caps seem to have no laws that govern them? I've seen everything from clock radios to talking wall beavers. (Don't ask.)
