| - Normally, I'm kind of skeptical about Jack Astor's. It's mostly cuz of the hostesses in stilettos and pearls; it's all just a little too smug. I use to frequent this particular Jack Astor's long ago and I wasn't impressed then because I saw some busboy with spiked hair and stupid blonde hair tips wearing a t-shirt that said "Tipping is NOT just a place in China." As you can see, the smugness was off the charts back in the day. I had low expectations for this visit but then we had the greatest server EVER. His name was Justin, and he felt like a dear old friend. He felt like he was the kind of friend you could ugly cry on and just WRECK his white dress shirt with smeared makeup and he'd still be like, "don't worry, I was gonna throw this shirt out anyway!"
I met up with two girlfriends to catch up and we were blown away by the pulled pork poutine; it's a must have. The meat was tender and fine; they must've had this pig on a low-carb, feces-free diet cuz it wasn't very fatty at all! I ordered chicken nuggets and I was very satisfied because normally at crappy places like wild wing, they act like it's a big deal to give me two sauces but Justin provided me with like, six sauces. Anyway, the food was good, Justin was great and my one friend is married, the other is engaged and I have two cats with an overflowing litter box. 5 Stars!
