Reviews
I ordered a house salad with shrimp and mahi tacos that also come with french fries. My friend that joined me ordered a pizza with pepperoni and banana peppers. The food was really delicious. I liked that they charred the tortillas for my tacos and the bottom of the crust of the pizza. It wasn’t so much that there was any burnt taste, but enough to give a slight smokey flavor that we both enjoyed. The mahi tacos were flavorful and the fish planks were also nice and smokey.
We were there on a Saturday evening just in time for trivia so the place was pretty busy. Besides the bar, there was nowhere to dine inside. I would’ve preferred to eat outside on the deck anyhow, the view from the patio outside was pleasant and the temperature was perfect for outdoor dining. I found the size and shape of my chair a little difficult to sit in while eating, but I managed. It could be that you’re meant to eat your meal in your chair or that they’re just designed for giants, I’m not sure. At least they’re sturdy and not cheaply made, I will say that.
One thing that I didn’t notice right away, was that on my receipt I was charged tax twice. I couldn’t say what that was about, but I don’t think I’ve seen that from a restaurant before. Maybe it was due to something I ordered and maybe it was mentioned on the menu and I just didn’t pay it no attention.
Anyhow, I’d recommend checking this place out if you’ve never tried it. It’s up on a mountaintop and it’s not the easiest place to find if you’re not from the area. The road there is a long and steep one, so you might smell your brakes by the time you get back to the bottom of the hill this restaurant is on. And though the menu varies quite a bit in price, meaning it’s as expensive as it is affordable (if that makes sense). This is a unique and nice place to kill your hunger. Give it a try.
We each got the Ceasar salad, I got the Steak and Shrimp with garlic cream sauce and potatoes, my girlfriend got the stuffed chicken with Spinach, mushrooms and cheese on top of rice. The steak was perfectly cooked to a nice pink medium and was juicy and tender. The shrimp and garlic sauce added excellent flavors to the steak, and the potatoes had the perfect amount of spice to make them an excellent addition to the meal as well. The potatoes weren’t even mentioned on the menu but I’m very happy they were included. The chicken was nice and tender with a ton of complimentary flavors from the sauce and various things it was stuffed with. Either entrée you choose would be a great choice in my opinion. We finished the meal with two slices of turtle cheesecake, and those were exceptionally well prepared too. The caramel wasn’t too sweet or heavy but was the perfect, creamy compliment to give the cheesecake a nice variation of flavor.
In addition to the food, the building and location itself are very nice and relaxing. The restaurant is located by Eagle View apartments and there’s an amazing view of the city from high above (at least when the weather is clear, it was very foggy during our visit today). The building itself has a nice, relaxing, inviting interior, and while there’s not a ton of seating, that simply adds to the more relaxed vibe of the place. There is an attractive, well stocked bar, and a few tvs around as well.
Overall if you haven’t checked out The Lookout yet, I feel it is a nice little hidden gem that is absolutely worth your time.
*It can be a little tricky to find if you’re not from the area. It is on top of a mountain in a gated home community.
