| - In all honesty, the people who rated this place 1 star because they ordered steak and fish at a small airport restaurant deserve a slap to the back of the head. Of course the steak, fish and seafood is going to suck. Come on people. You're at a SMALL AIRPORT RESTAURANT. This isn't Mastro's, nor is it Sky Harbor where you can actually find modified versions of fine dining restaurants.
This place is average. Not terrible, not great. Average. My boyfriend took me here on a Friday night because he knows how much I love airplanes. It was a really cute idea. The place was for the most part empty, aside from the glassed off section of the restaurant that was filled with senior citizens who seemed to be attending a seminar. The only thing about going at night is that the windows of the restaurant have a massive glare and it is very hard to see the planes outside when it's dark.
Service is so-so. She came, took our drink orders and came back to take our food orders. My boyfriend got the grilled cheese with fries and I got the club sandwich with sweet potato fries (add $.99). The food was decent. The grilled cheese, though, was remarkably small. The fries that came with it were obviously the frozen wedge kind but my boyfriend will eat any type of fries, whether frozen or not. My sandwich wasn't bad. My only complaints would be that the tomato was a bit too ripe and the meats were cut a bit thick. Nothing you can't work around though. The sweet potato fries were actually REALLY good. They didn't seem to be the frozen kind and were cooked perfectly and had a great taste. Both items came with a large pickle spear as well. The prices were somewhat okay. The grilled cheese was around $5/6 and the club sandwich was $9.99 I believe, plus the extra buck for sweet potato fries (worth it!).
So. Long story short. Don't come to this restaurant expecting a five star steak. You won't get it here. But if you're looking for a casual restaurant setting with food similar to a Coco's or Denny's type, come here. Plus you get to watch the airplanes, and look at their hundreds of model planes hanging from the ceiling.
