Great Karaoke
by Singasong at Citysearch
I love karaoke on Wednesdays and Sundays. The kj is a fun person with great manners would love to see him there Fridays and Saturdays too! Alhambra is now gaining more recognition as a cool place.
The people that go there are nice friendly people. Other karaoke's don't have that fun atmosphere too many drunks out of there minds.
I went to one in El Sereno and I was disgusted to see that women were cussing, smoking and grabbing the mics out of your hands. Now they have a new MC and it 's still not good. Too many rough people there.
- Pros: Excellent KJ classy and great manners.
- Cons: Need Finger foods kitchen closes to early

Honeys Birthday 12-30-08
We were on our way to our usual Mexican resturant for Carolyns birthday ( Acapulco) when at the last minute I remember reading recently the local monthly Alhambra new paper about Fronteras. I had driven by it on Main street before and it had a A food rating and looked inviting. It was a lot closer so we took a drive by to check it out. It pleased her eyes and belive me Carolyn hates everything so what the heck lifes like a box of chocolate.
Parking was a breeze and by the way Main Street Alhambra is a great kept secret for night life. We entered and were greeted by a very friendly hostes. We were seated right away and ordered a couple of margaritas including complementry salsa and chips. Large bowl of very fresh salsa which was really good, the chips were those red white and blue chips so so but not greasy. If they changed the type of chips and Gucamole it would make this resturant perfect. I ordered steak Fajitas and she ordered taquitos both were of obvious freshness and excellent quality very sweet veggies and superb beans and rice! On a side note the bus boy which I hate to call him was absoutley delightfull please give that man a raise he was as good as is gets!
The atmosphere was very nice in an old brick building it was extreamly clean, quaint and classy. They also comped us a couple of drinks and did not even know it was her B-day. The manager was first class and a great ambassador for this establishment. I am a hot sauce conisuer who has traveled the globe and thier picante sauce is to die for. It's not for the weak or timid but if you like it hot it is second to none. It's like a butter wine hanabaro sauce very unique and very tasty hot. Carolyn loved it and so did I, Fronteras you get the best advertisement of all (word of mouth) I'm telling everybody about you and I can't wait to come back again.
Wow what a geat dinning experence, loved it!
- Pros: Parking, Service, Atttitudes, Freshness you can taste, Very clean, Picante sauce
- Cons: Middle of the road chips and gucamole
