Tequila, it makes me happy...
by JessH about CACTUS CANTINA
Ladies really are spoilt for choice on where to go for drinks in Dubai... you don't even have to wait until the sun goes down!
Once a month our group of girls meets up for lunch (to start our weekend!) and a merry time at Cactus Cantina; located on the 8th floor of the Rydges Plaza Hotel in Satwa (at the end of Diyafah Street). Cactus Cantina is a medium-sized venue & can seat up to 140 persons. When you're there, say "hi" to Mario who is waiting the tables.
> Enjoy the Thursday Happy Hour (new in 2008) 12noon - 7pm:
we paid only 65 Dirhams for a huge pitcher (approx. 8 glasses) of strawberry margherita :-)
> Friday Special: Two for One!
Order 1 main course and receive a 2nd one absolutely free.
If you are planning to also have lunch, it's advisable to book a table in advance if you will be more than 4 people... needless to say: It get's very crowded! Spoil yourself to some yummy mexican food and their great margheritas. Try the vegetable quesidillas (39 Dhs), the spinach enchiladas (32 Dhs) the burritos with chicken, shrimp or beef (42 Dhs) or the tostado grande salad (36 Dhs) - delicious!
NOTE: This isn't "fine dining" and I don't recommend their rather chewy steaks. But the food is pretty OK & does the job of lining your stomach for a serious night of drinking ahead :-)
This is the perfect place to "warm-up" for a Thursday night on the town.
> FRIDAY all day: buy 1 Mexican main course & receive a 2nd main course absolutely free. Free margheritas for the ladies.
> SATURDAY NIGHT: Salsa Dancing lessons for all.
> "The Writing's on the Wall": Hard to believe, yet true: if it's a rainy day (rare, but it happens!) head down to Cactus Cantina where ladies can enjoy even more free drinks (see picture). No time limit on this offer... whenever you order another round the waiter simply sticks his hand out of the window... as long as it's drizzling you can be guzzling ;-) Casual, casual, casual.
(Girls, the ladies room has very nice.... well.... "decor".... check it out!)
Opening Hours: Saturday - Thursday 12:00noon - 01:00am,
Friday 06:00pm - 01:00am.
UPDATE October 2007: This restaurant used to offer all free drinks for ladies also on every Thursday afternoon. Unfortunately, after 10 years of generosity, management has decided to cut this down to only 2 free drinks on Thursdays (but more free drinks on Fridays).
UPDATE May 2009: This restaurant now has seperate smoking and non-smoking sections.
'THE' RESTAURANT TIP !
by DAO about CHANGES DAILY !!!!
MEAL DEALS
Eating out in Dubai can be either cheap or VERY expensive. If you want alcohol with a meal, then you must eat in a good hotel and that can be expensive. It does not have to be! The free ‘Time Out’ magazine lists all the daily buffets across Dubai that even includes alcoholic drinks! By the time you leave these restaurants, you will definitely have had your money’s worth! Enjoy.
