Restaurant Review: Fiasco

On Friday night the boys (Scott, Stephen, Charles, Benjie, Jeff, Joseph, Paul) went for the monthly Friday Night Dinner to Fiasco. Some of the “fiascos” before getting to the restaurant included:

• Benjie phoning every single cell phone and landline and having Marcus answering.
• Getting Benjie over to Scott and Stephen's place (poor thing, he was afraid of big bad Marcus)
• Trying to figure out the mystery of our pre-dinner snacks, Toppables Crackers. What if they were called Bottomables, would they be bottoms or tops??
• Finding parking downtown.

The restaurant was lovely. Benjie decided to live on the edge and ordered the four-course surprise, Scott had a delectable seared Tuna. The calamari was delicious as well; it was crisp but not too chewy and just spicy enough. Everyone enjoyed their food, martinis and wine and the company. Thanks for a great Friday night boys!

For those keeping track here is a tally of the Friday Night Dinners so far (ratings are out of five stars)

Fiasco ****
Great atmosphere, great food, good service.

Saege ***
Decent food, but the decor and overall atmostphere was an odd cross between Smitty's and Onyx.

Luxx **
Decent food, sucky service. Luxx suxxxxx.

Doraku Sushi ***
Great Sushi, and a little bit of Bonnie didn’t hurt either.

Gio **
Good food, great (but weak) drinks, but it took too long to divide our bills and we all left stone cold sober.
