REVIEW: Josephine Street Cafe

Last time I reviewed this local fave was in January of this year and documented here.  Tonight, on the verge of a rainstorm, I review it again and find that I had the exact meal as I did nine months ago.  I am the king of consistency: the king Saiz of consistency.

Always have loved the little beer glasses at this joint. Where can I snag me a set?

Sausage and queso for the appetizer as usual, apparently, but it is oh so good.  I don’t seem to remember the queso being on the side but it was a good idea as we could slather the queso on the heart attack on a plate appetizer as we desired.  This appetizer is so delicious.  You must try it.

So sitting under the light of the blue neon sign which reads steaks, it hits me, order the rib eye steak dorkus maximus. If we would have sat in the exact opposite side of the building the blue neon sign reads whiskey.  How different my night could have been.

Rib eye steak was a bit fatty but still full of flavor.  Those mashed potatoes are always tasty too.

Then the rain hit.  A stampede of people ran into the little building from the eating patio to escape the downpour.  As every table was already occupied they just stood around with their drinks and plates.  Those funny pictures did not come out clearly with the poor lighting in the restaurant and the poor iPhone camera.

This is a place we often frequent before a Spurs game but the neighborhood is changing.  S says the Liberty Bar next door is moving to Southtown and will be replaced by a parking garage.  Makes me wonder how much longer Josephine Street Café will be around too?  Go quickly and enjoy before they are BOTH gone.
