| - The only reason we stopped by was this place was because Swartz Deli was way too busy for our hungry bellies. We saw this place from across the street and decided to give it a try. When we got inside, we noticed it was a lot smaller than it seemed, like an llusion.
The place was dark and had a certain mood, which I thought was cool. The owner or manager brought us to our table and got us some glasses of water. It took a little bit for the waitress to come over with menus and we finally ordered a nacho appetizer with beef. She seemed nice and was able to understand and speak back in English. None of us knew French, so that made it easier for us.
It took about 30 mins to get the appetizer. It looked really good. I didn't get a chance to eat all day, so I wanted to dig right into it. However, I wasn't pleased much from it. The beef seemed it was dry, overcooked, and just had no taste whatsoever. The appetizer does come with three dipping sauce sour cream, guacamole, and salsa. Get this dish, but without the beef.
We ordered our food, and by this time, the crowded place became just us and another table. That brought hopes to our hearts because we thought our lunch would come out faster, but we still waited another 20-25 minutes to get it.
For my dish, I ordered the Chicken Club Sandwich. The sandwich was actually very good. I had a choice to get a salad or fries, so I just stuck with the salad. The salad was normal, and the dressing was interesting. However, the poured so much dressing. The chicken sandwich was juicy and had a little char on the edges. I didn't mind that at all and expected it from reading other reviews.
My other friends, all except one, seemed to happy with their orders. The one who didn't enjoy it was upset that what he ordered was totally different. He was too hungry to complain and then have to wait another 30 mins, so he just decided to try it out. He didn't like it and just decided to forget about eating altogether. There was also another shared dish we ordered, which also did not come out.
So I'm giving this place a generous 3 out of 5 stars because my dish was tasty and filling.
