Chelsea and I were going to check out the Willie Nelson show at the Rosa Heart Theater a couple of weeks ago, and we decided that we wanted to go have dinner at 1910. We had gone in for brunch within a week of their opening, and we didn\u2019t have a bad experience, nor was the food bad; it was still a little new for everyone, so we decided to let them get their legs under them a little more before we went back.<\/p>\n
First off, I think it is a grea<\/a>t location, downtown with all the oak trees around; it sits on a corner, which gives you several views, and that\u2019s pretty great, as well.<\/p>\n The restaurant is very simple in design; there are no over-the-top gimmicks, just a simple classy design that feels very comfortable as you dine.<\/p>\n Now, maybe it\u2019s just me, but the one thing I found odd about the way the place was set up was that there was a dinner party there when we went, with at least 10 people at the table. As a guest would arrive, the people sitting would all get up and greet them, which is fine. But then everyone would just stand right next to our table and talk.<\/p>\n There are restaurants that are designed to allow for this, but this place doesn\u2019t seem to be one of them; we couldn\u2019t even hear our own conversation over theirs. It didn\u2019t bother me to the point of wanting to complain or leave, as it was the guests\u2019 decision to be somewhat intrusive. It didn\u2019t last forever, though, and we were able to get to our dinner.<\/p>\n We decided to start our meal off with the pork cheeks appetizer, which consisted of a braised pork cheek on a bed of dirty rice, and cracklins sprinkled on top.<\/p>\n
