Malabar - In a whispered voice

2960 Del Paso Rd
Sacramento, CA 95834

Breaking News!!! Dr. Becky and the honorable Doctor Smooth (Thursday Drunks expats living in San Luis Obispo), had a baby girl today! That's right, they scheduled their c-section on a Thursday, cause that's how they roll. Baby Natalie is officially the newest in the Drunk family. Her older brother Jack "Fire Pig" was also a Thursday baby. The Doctors are really representing with this whole child bearing thing. Cheers!! Oh and the campaign to get them back to this area is doing very well.

We were a smaller crowd. Down a NakedBob and Mr. Chem. Reservations were not made so RobotGoBen and I showed up about 15 minutes early to get a drink and sort out the table. The hostess was dumber than bricks. I don't usually like to bag on the staff in our posts, but my god it took 5 minutes to sort out table for 10, 7 pm. How many ways can I make that clearer. Best was when she looked at my, GoBen and the random lady he was talking to and asked, is your whole party here? No.

Then we moved to the bar, and our waitress there rocked! Martini and beers in less than 5 minutes. As everyone showed up, she rocked out more drinks. Even gave us the benefit of the doubt on the happy hour prices. That's when you over tip obscenely.

Dinner was good. They seriously have a giant menu with everything from meat loaf to Mexican to seared ahi, pizzas and everything in between.

Overall it was good, but the bar waitress was the highlight. Go to have drinks, app specials at the bar and you will be alright.
