| - Came here with family for lunch last week. We had a party of 6 and a toddler and they accommodated everyone well. Our server was friendly and attentive -my water glass was never empty, which I always appreciate. I am giving this review 4 stars as our waitress was very good.
We started with the large fried pretzel and dipping sauces. The pretzel itself was good, albeit a bit oily and the sauces were also good. The honey mustard and ranch were tasty but the cheese dip was nearly flavorless and a little too orange for my liking.
I went with the buffalo chicken salad for my entree. This is my second and last time giving the NPL salads a go. My salad was just a huge bowl of iceberg lettuce with minimal chicken and toppings. The buffalo chicken was fried tenders just thrown in some Frank's red hot. I kind of wished it had been a more flavorful housemade sauce, but it was lacking. If I am going to eat a dinner salad out, I like it to have a solid toppings to lettuce ratio, which these never do for me. I am paying mostly for the chicken and other toppings, not the lettuce, which is unfortunately mostly what I got. It was OK, but I dont feel it was worth ordering again.
The restaurant itself was clean, well lit and really nice inside. It has a lot of large open space - there were different bars and rooms for seating, and also a patio for outdoor seating in warmer weather.
NPL at all locations is just fairly average, but consistent food. Typically isn't my first choice, but I wont put up an argument if someone I'm with suggests it. After all, there is always the french onion soup and a burger on the menu.
