text: It appears to be an okay restaurant but nothing special and seemingly not worth the price I sat at the bar for my first visit and thankfully Nine On Nine has a good happy hour with half price food from the bar menu as well as discounted wine and drinks The wine list is pretty good and lots of choices by the glass so that is a positive The cocktails did not look very exciting so I did not try any cocktailsnnAs for food thankfully I went for half price happy hour dishes because neither the mussels nor the risotto I ordered was would have been worth the full prices of and respectively Do not get me wrong there were a huge number of mussels in the bowl but they were overcooked and a bit stringy some had not been cleaned properly and were grainy and the sauce which is one of my favorite parts of a good mussel dish did not add much flavor other than when it soaked into one of the or tiny little croutonsized pieces of bread that were sprinkled on top of the dish The mushroom risotto was fine but nothing special slightly too al dente and missing salt or something so it just did not have much flavor At and per plate I have had a lot worse but these dishes definitely were not worth their full menu prices Oh and the ceviche of the day which I did not get was tilapia I have rarely ever seen that before nothing like a cheap typically muddy tasting fish for a good cevichennI may go back and order off the full menu because I cannot argue with some nicely chosen wines by the glass for during happy hour and a lot of people seem to like the food here but the next visit will confirm whether it is worth ever going back after that The prices are not cheap so my expectations are high and food on my first visit did not come close to meeting them
