| - Stopped in for lunch today. This location was formerly BLVD, and also Jay's Sports Bar, back in the day. When I arrived, the door was locked, and it was really cold out, so I hung out inside the ice rink next door, until 11:00. Door was still locked, so I warmed up again next door. I could see people moving around inside the restaurant from inside the rink, went back over at 5 after, and door was still locked. Waited outside the door for a few more minutes, and finally at 11:07, the manager unlocked the doors. While I have been a frequent customer of Bubba's at the original location in South Fayette, this was my first visit here, and I was told that they are still in their soft opening phase. The menu was completely different from what I am used to at the original location (mostly same food, just a different layout). I actually thought it was kind of hard to read, and nowhere did I see drinks listed. The server finally told me that they have coke products, so I ordered a coke ($2.50), but I thought it would be nice if I could see the drinks along with pricing, and also I think a beer list would've been good to have also (Perhaps that is still in the making as they are new). I wasn't really in the mood for one of the burghers on the menu, so I asked if I could make my own? Yes, was the answer, but it would've also been nice to just see this option somewhere on the menu. So I ordered a medium-well Hamburgher ($9.49) and subbed deep fried pickles ($1.50 upcharge) instead of fries. When the burgher arrived, it was O.K. I thought it was over-cooked a little, and tasted well done to me. Maybe I should've ordered it medium?
The fried pickles were not as good as I am used to. They were pretty oily, and maybe a little undercooked on the inside. Again, this place is new, so maybe they are still getting their act together, but overall, I thought the atmosphere of the restaurant was nice (and large), although sometimes there are loud noises from hockey pucks hitting the glass, so you gotta get used to that sound (almost sounds like a gunshot) every now and again. I'll probably come back again some time in the future and see how things have improved. I also am a big fan of the Friday Fish Sandwich at the original Bubba's, so I am curious if they do it just as good here at this location. P.S. The manager told me they are also going to have a Lenten menu soon too (FYI, Lent starts in two weeks on Ash Wednesday / Valentines Day). Cheers!
