Life has been pretty hectic lately with work, multiple weddings to attend, being out of town almost every weekend, and becuase of that my boyfriend and I haven't had time to go on an official date lately! Luckily this week we both made time for each other ~ that meant my work out was a little shorter than usual and he had to leave work early. And it was totally worth it!!
The restaurant we were going to was a total surprise ~ so I annoyed him all day with questions like: what should I wear (casual or dressy), what part of town are we going to, when should I be ready?? And he gave me no clues! To my surprise we showed up at Georgia Grille, a restaurant I have heard great things about and one that I have been dying to try!
Georgia Grille is a mix between tex mex and southern food ~ which I think is the perfect combination!
(sorry for the bad pics, the restaurant was incredibly dark)
To start we had silver margaritas along with chips & salsa and queso! The queso had chunks of peppers and jalapenos, very good and not too spicy. The margs were terrific, not too much mix ~ I'm the type of person that wants to actually taste the tequila!
For dinner the boyfriend had pork chop fajitas served with collard greens, corn relish and apple salsa. A great mix of southern meets tex mex!!
I had the chicken enchiladas and taco salad for dinner. The enchiladas were super creamy with the right amount of chicken to cheese ratio! The salad was a little odd - it tasted like iceberg lettuce and mayo. Strange!
I highly recommend making a reservation - on a Wednesday night the place was packed! The restaurant probably has a total of 20 tables and a very small bar.
All in all, date night was great! I got to catch up with my boyfriend in a romantic restaurant!
As we were leaving the restaurant, our terrific server Ashley turned to me and said "You look like Chelsea Lately"!! It's funny, I get that all the time from strangers!
Do people ever say you look like someone famous??
Happy Friday!
