"This Caribbean restaurant renovated their beach-like patio, and all the sand that once filled it is pretty much gone. We were upset at first, but honestly, we don’t miss the stuff. The new-and-improved island deck atmosphere actually makes Bongos feel even more like the party it is, with increased room for picnic tables, coconut-blasted piñas on the rocks, spicy shrimp plates, and cheese-stuffed yucca balls that might be one of the best fried snacks in town. After a summertime Green Lake lap, just try to resist a sunset sandwich among the upbeat music and abundance of cute dogs. You can’t." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley, gabe guarente
