I like Proof. I've visited three times in the past two weeks so maybe I more than like it. The first day that I came in I met Makayla, a bartender/manager at the restaurant. She's really personable and helped me to pass the time as I waited to get the go ahead from my realtor that I could move into out new home. She is the reason why I've come back again.
I've eaten a lot of the food from the menu due to my frequent visits. Twice I've had the Cesar salad. It comes with large croutons that seem to be cut from baguettes. That's fun. I think they could go a little easier on the dressing though, but I'm sure others would beg to differ as I know plenty of people like lots of salad dressing. It's still tasty obviously or I wouldn't have ordered it again.
I also had the clam chowder (loaded with clams) and the meatful chili. If you love beef, definitely get the chili as it's true to the name. My husband ordered this and loved it. I had it a few days ago and found it too heavy but I have been meat free for close to a year and only started back eating it this past month.
I also tried their grilled chicken salad with tater tots and that was yummy too. There isn't anything that wasn't good, my palate just needs some work right now.
I'm most impressed with their beer selection. First of all this is because I (thought) that I hated beer. That was until Makayla suggested an Austrian grapefruit beer to me and I fell in love. I'm glad that I broke out of my comfort zone and tried something new. I now want to go so I can try my luck on the video poker and enjoy a refreshing Stiegl and some good conversation with the staff.
