| - GENERAL NOTES
This place is surprizingly good. I hadn't been to a TJ's in years when this location opened up around the corner. I heard they had good wings so I checked it out. I've had a few things here and generally speaking, I find it to be one of the best mid-range sit-down resto/bar chains. Basically, it's better than Kelsey's and Shoeless Joe's.
DEALS
Mon - Wings and Tall Boys
Tues - Corona's and Faijitas
Wed - Burgers and drafts
Sun - $11 domestic pitchers
MENU RECOMMENDATIONS
Wings - Yeah, they're good. Maybe not great but they certainly give you a lot of options between sauces(try the NY Butter), size (2 sizes, go for the big ones), cooking style (convected vs bbq, I'm still undecided) and probably something else. The obvious genius here is you'll go back a million times trying every possible combination.
BBQ Chicken Salad - Really, really good. Loaded with BBQ chicken, corn, black beans, tomatoes, etc. I'm pretty sure I subbed out the ranch dressing for something lighter.
It's actually a huge menu. I've had the fajitas, they're good. Just looking over the menu now I've gotta try the King Club sandwich, the Big Wing sandwich, the Canadian Smokehouse burger and the NY Chicken. Now if only I had a lame girlfriend to take out to shitty places like this.
SERVICE NOTES
Decently swift service from decently swift servers.
LOCATION NOTES
Located in the Longo's plaza on the SE corner of Trafalgar and Dundas. I'm pretty sure there's a patio but now I can't remember. Inside it's split 1/2 bar, 1/2 restaurant.
HUMOUROUS STORY
Drunk Tip #1: Try to drink on patios as much as possible. Being outside lends itself nicely to both spontaneous puking and theft. At the TJ's in Meadowvale I used to go out for cheap Corona's with my buddy Sean. At the end of the night we'd always order one more and then just walk out the patio gate. Makes the walk home a lot more manageable.
