In the back alley of Blood Alley you can watch fights break out over an umbrella, grab a tasting flight at Salt Tasting Room, or grab some affordable Mexi-Cali-style food and drinks. This hot pink flamingo restaurant is perfect for your night cap, a pre-and post-game grub or a casual get together. The 28 person capacity restaurant is friendly and easy going. We came here to celebrate a friend birthday over some drink, snacks and fist pumps with strangers. Gringo Gastown is located where Judas Goat used to be. Don’t worry about Blood Alley, Gringo has their own bouncers to man the doors in case things get a little Nacho Libre!
The Pink Flamingo 7: pink grapefruit, tequila, beer. A tasty tart cocktail . Beer Colada 7: pina colada mixed with ale beer. Light and refreshing.
Stadium Nachos 6: chips, queso, jalapenos, sour cream, guac and salsa. Add beef, pork, chicken or shrimp to anything for +2. This nice sized nacho to share.
We ordered a variety of tacos 6 for 15: The meat was tender and the shrimps were snappy. However it lacked flavor. Definitely can use some seasoning.
- Chuck: House-seasoned ground chuck, salsa
- Earl: Blackedn cajun roasted chicken, ranch
- Pink: White shrimp, chimichurri, tomatillo sauce
Gringo is a pretty neat place to go if you are looking for a casual fare, budget late night for drinks that won’t leave your wallet flat lined.
