Atlantic Salmon

Atlantic Salmon

Lagarde American Eatery

This is a lot of food, and it was way more filling that I expected. It was all I could do to eat all of it. It was good, but not exceptional. I felt like everything was cooked too much. I did like it, but it was kind of overcooked. While I won’t get this again, I was happy with my meal.

California Club

Mellow Mushroom

I though this was very good. It’s a low calorie option, and it tastes great. If you’re not wanting to feel stuffed and disgusting, this is a great choice. It’s grilled chicken, great flavor. I was surprised, highly recommend.

Big Smasher Burger

Big Smasher Burger

Chili’s

It’s good but a little greasy for me. It is really big, and it’s a good meal. Overall I liked it; I’ve realized that I’m not really a big fan of thousand island on most things. It’s a little too sweet for me, but this is a good burger.

Everything Burnt Ends

Everything Burnt Ends

Jason's Deli

A lot going on here. It is as the title says - they put everything in this sandwich. I couldn’t really taste anything too specific because of the number of ingredients. It was kinda salty. The bbq wasn’t great. Not really my thing, but at least I tried it.

The Rueben

The Rueben

Hobnob Tavern

I had high hopes for this, but those hopes were dashed to pieces on the rocks at my first bite. The sandwich had a taste to it that I didn’t like. It’s hard to put a finger on it. I ate it, but I don’t love it. I’m particular about my Rueben’s, and I do have high standards. It should not be hard to make an exceptional Rueben. It should have had a lot more meat in it, especially for the price. It was just nothing special. I totally would not get it again.

Spaghetti and Meatballs

Spaghetti and Meatballs

Olive Garden

Spaghetti is one of my favorite things to eat, and I am a real connoisseur. I guess you don’t expect top tier spaghetti at Olive Garden. It was just okay; I’m not a big fan. I make homemade spaghetti that is much better.

Mexican Burger

Cali n Tito's

This burger has everything. It is a perfect blend of all the things you would want on a burger. The patty itself is huge, and it overflows way outside the bun. It’s one of the best burgers I have ever eaten because of the flavor. It just has it all. I promise it will not disappoint.

Caprese Panini

Caprese Panini

Jason's Deli

It’s good, a little dry, but you can ask for some more of the pesto sauce. The cheese is good - it’s a thick white cheese. It’s a popular item, and I do recommend it.

Korean Ribeye Bibimbap

Korean Ribeye Bibimbap

Lazy Dog

The waitress recommended this, and I tried to like it. The truth is that it’s not that good. It’s pretty low calorie but other than that I’m not impressed. The shaved ribeye is okay, but it’s not much meat. I guess I’m not a fan of Asian type bowls like this. Although this is supposed to be one of their top dishes, I would mot recommend it.

Blue Moon Pizza

It’s pretty good, but I wish it had more meat in it. The flatbread is great - I think they make that in house. Overall it’s good, just could use a little more meat; them I would have given it a higher score. It is large, and you could get a couple meals out of it. I recommend it.

Grilled Rueben

Swheat Market

This is by far the best Rueben I have ever had. They told me at the register that this is their best sandwich, and it lives up to that. This is the standard by which I will judge all Rueben’s from now on.

The Big Cheese

Kid Cashew

Lots of cheese, and I’m not sure how well I liked it. It seemed in the lower end of quality. I’m not sure how I feel. It was a big burger though.

Creamed Corn

Creamed Corn

Table 20

This is good, but not the homemade cream corn I’m used to. It’s very spicy and has crusted cheese around the top. I like it; it’s just different. I suggest trying it.

Triple Pepper Double Smash Burger

Table 20

Wow! Definitely one of the most different burgers I’ve had. Very spicy, lots of jalapeños. It’s good. I like it a lot. It’s a little greasy, but that’s to be expected with a burger. It’s quite impressive. This is a nice restaurant so they rotate the menu items. This gives you a look at the quality you get here. Definitely recommend.

Campfire Pot Roast

Campfire Pot Roast

Lazy Dog

The waitress recommended this and said it was really good. I’m isedvto eating roast beef, but I wasn’t more impressed with this. It is very fatty; I kept just pulling out big chunks of fat because I don’t like eating that stuff. I see no way this was cooked fresh - obviously it was heated up. I just didn’t like it very much, but I did finish it after pulling the fat out of it. Not the greatest roast beef.

Hearty Ham Sandwich

Hearty Ham Sandwich

Jason's Deli

I’m not typically a ham person, would rather eat beef or something else, but this is really good. It’s got avocados and other things in it that make it taste really good. The ham is kind of light and fluffy tasting - it doesn’t taste like a regular, cold ham sandwich. It’s really good; I hope they add it to the menu permanently.

Firecracker Shrimp

Lazy Dog

Amazing shrimp appetizer. It’s fried shrimp with spicy firecracker sauce - very good. This is one of their most popular items. I would totally order it again.

New York Deli Rueben

New York Deli Rueben

Hudson Grill

Not a great Rueben. It’s very thin and doesn’t have much meat. It could be so much better if they just loaded it down with meat. It tasted good but should have had 4-5 times as much meat as it did. They can do so much better. It just barely had any meat in it.

Creamy Chicken Pesto Pasta

Creamy Chicken Pesto Pasta

Jason's Deli

This is really good. It is a large portion, and it has plenty of chicken and Alfredo sauce. Overall I am very pleased. This was a great meal. It wasn’t too heavy, seemed just right. This is a new dish so it may stay or it may not. I hope they add it to the permanent menu. They forgot the tomatoes on mine or they were out, but it was still good.
