| - Friend told me about this new spot that just opended in Mesa, called Julies Chicken & Waffles. Two of my Favorite words!! So, after getting the doo done, myself and another friend decided to check it out for lunch. Now, let me start by saying, this is a very NEW establishment. I didn't want to compare them to LoLos or Roscoe's. We walk in, its a really nice set up. We wait mmmm, about 20 mins for them to bring up two really yummy sweet potato corn muffins, served in a little paper french fry boat, w/2 pats of butter and one knife and fork... for the two of us? No extra napkin or plate. We just kind of looked at each other on that. Had to ASK for a extra set. I ordered the Red Beans & Rice (Rice was watery, Beans had no taste ), Collard Greens (Dam! Again, no flavor or taste), 3 really good sized wings (Only ate one of them) Again, No TASTE! They have a nice dance floor, for old school music, a bar and lounge in the front of the establishment as well. The owner was the cook and waitres. That may have been the reason, not that much attention was paid to the SEASONING of the food. Think I'll go back next time with The Man during the evenings festivities. And give it a 2nd chance. But, for now, I'm giving it a 2/Star for the Potential. Its in a great little spot. They have pretty much the same menu as Lolos, just not as good. They may want to check out the Draft House Chicken. They have the fricking best chicken in PHOENIX! The owever was very polite and attentive, it just didnt resonate to the bland tasting food. Im going back in a month. They've only been open a month. Their food on avg was about $2-$3 more than Lolos, for same menu items.
BTW The wrong address came up, I went to their NEW? Location
