| - Our office is literally a block away, and every once in a while we like to have a long, relaxing "business" Friday lunch including a beer or three. I called ahead, b/c I brought Clyde, my Weimaraner to work today, and wanted to make sure Boondocks is dog-friendly. Jennifer, the bartender, answered and said, "Absolutely!'
A two-minute walk later, Clyde had a big glass of ice cubes to munch (by request), and then a few minutes later, a big bucket of water (unsolicited). Jen also brought him 2 dog treats as well. Nice touch! :-)
I'd like to make this all about Clyde, but my chopped salad was fantastic! The dressing was obviously homemade and well seasoned; there was chopped egg blending into the spinach and lettuce mix, portabella mushrooms, roasted tomatoes, and more. I added grilled chicken to the salad, and it was perfect! I couldn't finish the serving, and not for trying. I wouldn't pay $15 for a lunch entree every day (hard NOT to do in Sdl) - but this time, it was worth every dime.
My co-worker had the pork belly sandwich with a huge portion of fries, and he also loved it. He remarked that it was nice to have a menu with a quality and variety of selections worthy of Scottsdale prices.
Clyde perhaps, was not the "perfect" guest, as he barked to be given ice cubes. I was worried about his behavior, but no one seemed to mind...
Will be back! Thanks, Boondocks!
