11 Tigers is a cozy and decorative restaurant that offers a unique dining experience. The atmosphere is themed around tigers, making you feel like you are entering a tiger’s den. As soon as you enter, you are greeted with delicious smells and a beautiful environment. The menu features dishes like the Crying Tiger Gyoza and Black Panther Curry, along with specialty drinks such as the Kitty on Fire, which is a favorite among guests. Service is friendly, and the bartender is great at lighting the fire at the table for drinks like Bad Kitty on Fire, perfect for those who enjoy mezcal and tequila. The food is flavorful and some dishes, including the duck curry and steak, are cooked to perfection, with the duck having juicy meat and crispy skin. The restaurant is small, with tables suitable for casual meetings or intimate gatherings, creating a private and fun experience. The atmosphere is lively, with nostalgic music adding to the cozy vibe. Although some dishes may take about an hour to arrive, the flavorful food makes the wait worthwhile. Located on the second floor, it’s a hidden neighborhood gem that could benefit from a sign or LED outside to attract more customers. Overall, 11 Tigers is a great spot for Happy Hour or birthday dinners, offering a fun theme, great food, and an inviting environment.
