| - I brought my best friend here for her birthday lunch as she's a rather big fan of Boston Pizza. I've been slowly changing my opinions of BP as the service has gotten much better in recent past!
It was well past lunchtime so the dining room wasn't all that busy and we were seated in a nice booth. Our server was rather nice, although I got the sense that she might be new because she didn't seem totally comfortable. Oh well. I did drop the hint that it was my friend's birthday but that there was to be no singing at her request. We ordered drinks and poked around the menu.
We ended up splitting an order of potato skins (my friend's favourite) and I ended up getting one of their healthier choice pizzas (Spicy Garlic Chicken Pizza). Now I'm not usually a fan of potato skins; they end up being kind of flavorless, have too much or not enough potato and someone always skimps on the toppings. These were pretty damned good. My friend asked for the BBQ sauce on the side (apparently they either go overboard or don't put any on) and that was a good call for sure. Not a menu item I would order but I will for sure get these again.
My pizza was delicious, I asked for multigrain crust but I don't think she put that in my order because it looked like the regular crust. No biggie because it tasted absolutely fantastical. It came out hot and the balance of flavors was pretty impressive. Sesame seeds, green onion, bbq chicken, peppers and a yummy sweet but spicy garlic sauce on it. Unfortunately when I had leftovers a day or two later, they didn't agree with me, so I won't be getting this pizza again (this has happened twice now) but it was great, so if you have a stomach that isn't bothered by a bit of spice you should be fine!
As requested, my friends' birthday dessert came out without fanfare and it was surprisingly large! Two brownies and two scoops of ice cream drizzled with chocolate and caramel. I had to help her and we couldn't finish it but I was impressed with the portion size (and man... those were some good brownies).
Overall, pretty pleased with the service and the food quality was better than I've had at a BP in a long time. I think a good rule of thumb with BP is to stay away from most of the tomato based pastas because they all taste like chef boyardee. It's a pizza place, get the pizza, go for the bar favourites like wings and potato skins and you shouldn't be disappointed!
