Deal of the Week

Deal of the Week

by: Chad

Here’s the latest update on our series of great deals to be found around town for the budget conscious.  Happy hour at Kona Grill is a great way to get good food and drinks for a low price.  Several sushi rolls and appetizers are only $3, and pizzas are only $5.  Drinks like margaritas and select draft beer and wines are also discounted to only $3 or $4.  On the evening my wife and I visited, we had 5 drinks between us, she had the Kahuna sliders appetizer and a dessert, and I got the barbecued chicken pizza, which is great by the way.  We enjoyed all of this for only $32, but get there quickly, because these deals are only available in the lounge and patio areas, and they fill up fast.  Happy hour is Monday-Friday, 3PM to 7PM.

And for the late night eaters, the good news is that you can also get these great deals during reverse happy hour, Monday-Thursday, 9PM to 11PM, and Friday-Saturday, 10PM to Midnight.

Deal of the Week

If you are hungry and funds are low, this is the information you need.  Several places around town offer great ‘happy hour’ deals that go beyond just drinks.  One of the best deals you’ll find is at Dingo’s.  Visit any day that they are open (Mon-Sat) between 4PM and 7PM and get $2 off all draft pints and all glasses of wine.  For only $.50 more you can get a cold pint of Foster’s.  Also, all burgers and some of the delicious Panini sandwiches are only $5.  If that wasn’t enough, kids also eat free Monday and Tuesday.

This past Tuesday night, my wife and four year old son visited.  We arrived at 6PM and I got a pint of Foster’s, my wife and son had soft drinks, I ate the very tasty Dingo’s bacon burger complete with the fried egg on top, my wife had a turkey burger (the chipotle cranberry sour cream sauce is the bomb) and my son had the kids mac and cheese (which he loves).  All this came to a grand total of $15.  I have spent that much in the past on a family outing at the golden arches, and I don’t think I need to tell you who has the better food.
